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.

hram777 [196]

Answer: common stockholders

Explanation: Stockholders are in essence the owners of a business. The difference between common stockholders and preferred stockholders when it comes to deciding the fate of the company is that preferred stockholders do not have voting rights while common stockholders do. So, common stockholders elect the board of directors.

Bondholders do not have any say in the running of a business, whatsoever.

The company plans to dissolve in two years. At the present time, dividends at each date are set equal to the cash flow of $18,00
gogolik [260]

Answer:

$321 per share.

Explanation:

Given that

Annual cash flows  = $18,000

Number of shares outstanding = 100

Dividend per share = $180

Required rate of return = 8%

So by considering the above information, the present value of the share of a stock is

Present value of share = Dividend received × Present value of $1 received every year at the end of year 2  at 8%

= $180 × 1.7832

= $321 per share.

Comparison of the minimum wage and the median wage can be used to estimate the extent to which unemployment results from minimum
kykrilka [37]

Answer: A country where minimum wage is set at 1% of median wage.

Explanation:

The minimum wage is the lowest income that employers can pay their employees.

The median wage is the midpoint of wages earned by workers in the society. Workers who earn median wage implies that half of the workers in the economy earn more than them and the remaining half less than them.

From the portions given, unemployment will mostly occur in a country where minimum wage is set at 1% of the median age. For example let's assume the median age is $10 per hour in the United States. This implies that minimum wage will be $0.1. Nobody will really want to work for an amount which is so low which in turn, leads to great unemployment.
