Both Wisconsin and Illinois border Lake Michigan. The lake is becoming polluted and both states are deciding whether or not to c

lean it. If Wisconsin decides to clean the lake it will cost 1200 and generate social benefits of 1500 – however, Wisconsin will receive only 1100 of those social benefits while neighbor Illinois will receive the other 400. If Illinois cleans the lake, it will cost them 700 and generate social benefits of 900 – however, Illinois will receive only 600 of those benefits, Wisconsin will receive the remaining 300. If a state does not clean the lake, it experiences a cost of $0. If both states clean the lake, the payoffs will be
A. Wisconsin gains 100, Illinois gains 200
B. Wisconsin gains 200, Illinois gains 300
C. Wisconsin gains 200, Illinois loses 100
D. Wisconsin gains 100, Illinois loses 100

Answer:

B. Wisconsin gains 200, Illinois gains 300

Explanation:

Assuming that one state cleaning the lake does not interfere with the costs and social benefits of the other state (events are independent), Wisconsin will incur 1,200 in costs and receive 1,100 in benefits from its own cleaning and 300 from Illinois' cleaning. Illinois will incur costs of 900 and receive 600 in benefits from its own cleaning and 400 from Wisconsin's cleaning.

The payoff for each state is:

W = -1,200+1,100+300\\W=200\\I=-700+600+400\\I=300

Therefore, Wisconsin gains 200, Illinois gains 300.

Use the​ high-low method to determine the​ hospital's cost equation using nursing hours as the cost driver. Predict total overhe
netineya [11]

Answer: Total cost  (23500 hours predicted ) = $ 484625

Explanation:

The question is incomplete the high and low methods requires us to use high and low level of activity together with the corresponding total costs at each level to determine the variable cost per unit. we will provide assumed total costs and nursing hours in order to show how high and low method is used to predict total costs for the next period.

Assume the following were total costs and corresponding nursing hours for the previous 3 months

Total cost                Hours

$560000             30000 hours

$400000             220000 hours

$225000             10000 hours

calculating Variable cost using high and low method

Variable cost per unit  = (high cost - low cost)/high hour - low hours)

Variable Cost Per unit =  (840000 - 225000)/ (30000 - 10000) = 16.75

Variable cost per unit = $ 16.75

Fixed costs = 560000 - (28000 x 16.75) =  560000 - 469000

Fixed costs =  $91000

Total cost  (23500 hours predicted ) =Total Fixed cost + Total Variable costs

Total cost  (23500 hours predicted ) = $91000 + (23500 x $16.75)

Total cost  (23500 hours predicted ) == $91000 + $393625

Total cost  (23500 hours predicted ) = $ 484625

Arjen owns investment A and 1 bond B. The total value of his holdings is 1,529 dollars. Investment A is expected to pay annual c
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

In order to find the present value of the bond we have to calculate the present value of investment A and subtract is from 1529. We can find the present value of A by discounting all its cash flows.

As the first cash flow is received today and the last will be received 3 years form now there will be a total of 4 cash flows

1) 218.19 (Will not be discounted as we are receiving it today in the present)

2) 218.19/1.0987 (Discount by 1 year as cash will be received in 1 year)

3) 218.19/1.0987^2 (Discount by 2 years as cash will be received in 2 years)

4) 218.19/ 1.0987^3 (Discount by 3 years as cash will be received in 3 years)

= 218.19 + 198.58 + 180.74+ 164.51 = 762.02

PV of Bond = 1529-762.09= 766.91

Semi annual coupons mean 2 payments a year. Bond B matures in 23 years which means a total of 46 payments (23*2). N=46. A coupon rate of 6.4 percent means that the bond pays $64 (0.064*1000) each year. $64 divided by 2 is 32 which is the amount of each semi annual payment Arjen receives. Pv= 766.91 FV = 1000

In a financial calculator put

PV= -766.91

N= 46

FV=1000

PMT= 32

and compute I

I is 4.38 and we will multiply it by 2 because the payments are semi annual. So we will get an I of 8.76

YTM= 0.0876
