1. The government is mulling protecting the shoe industry. It estimates it needs to protect it for 6 years to the tune of $5 bil

lion cost annually. Afterward, the shoe industry will return $200 million annually to the US society. Assume the repayment benefit lasts 100 years and the discount rate is 9%. Based on only economic reasoning and not political reasons, does it behoove the government to aid this industry? You need to explain lucidly what the analysis is. If you just compute numbers, it is not sufficient.

Answer:

PV of cash outflows = Annuity*(1-1/(1+rate)^number of terms)/rate

= 5000000000*(1-1/(1+9%)^6)/9%

= 22429592951.15

PV of inflows at end of 6 years= Annuity*(1-1/(1+rate)^number of terms)/rate

= 200000000*(1-1/(1+9%)^100)/9%

= 2221820304.00

PV of inflows now = 2221820304/1.09^6 = $1,324,798,853.47

NPV = -22429592951.15+1324798853.47

= -21104794098

We see that the Net Present value added by this method is negative. Hence the project is not beneficial.

The high-low method calculates the total fixed cost as the: Group of answer choices
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

c. difference between total variable costs and total costs at a particular activity level

Explanation:

The high low method consists of calculating costs on the basis of highest & lowest activity & comparing their corresponding total costs.

Variable cost per unit is found by : change in cost divided by the change in activity level for two points

Variable Cost per unit = <u>Highest activity cost - Lowest activity cost </u>

                                      Highest activity units - lowest activity units

Fixed Cost is thereafter calculated by subtracting Total Variable Costs from Total Cost

Fixed Cost = Highest Activity Total Cost - [ (Variable cost per unit) x (highest activity units)

Fixed Cost = Lowest Activity Cost - [ (Variable cost per unit) x (lowest activity units)]

Lesechka [4]

Because Mosanto modified the seeds DNA to improve than. Most of us have been eating genetically modified food for the past twenty years without knowing. And, in my opinion, that is the reason why we have more cancer, infertility, syndromes, and our kids are achieving puberty earlier. More than 50 different designers crops have passed through federal review process and about a hundred more are undergoing field trials.

The whole issue is that we totally lost control of what we are actually eating.
