Answer: sunk costs don't increase as driving increases.

Explanation: sunk costs are irrelevant costs because they have already occured in the past and cannot be avoided. Sunk costs thus do not differ between alternatives, and are unavoidable. The calculation for insurance and other sunk costs are likely not based on the amount of rides the Uber picks up, but rather calculated at a constant rate. So regardless of whether or not the rider pays more or less than the $.50 on the insurance, this will not have any effect on the insurance that is constant and has likely already been paid out.

sergeinik [125]

In most nations, one or more governing bodies must approve government spending or new tax policies. this process causes a(n) implementation lag.

    Implementation lag is the delay between an adverse macroeconomic event and the implementation of a fiscal or monetary policy response by the government and central bank. Implementation lag can result into delays due to various reasons such as failure in recognizing a problem, disagreements and bargaining over the appropriate response; physical, technical and administrative constraints etc.

      Implementation lag may reduce the effectiveness of a policy response or even result in periods of procyclical policy. There is always an implementation lag after a macroeconomic surprise.Policy makers may not ever realize there is a lag due to data lag.

Which of the following statements is/are true? Multiple Choice A. All else held constant, if a company has a beta of 1.2, then t
NikAS [45]

Answer:

Both A and B are true.

  • A. All else held constant, if a company has a beta of 1.2, then the cost of equity for this company will increase if the risk-free rate decreases.
  • B. If you assume a company has debt, then an increase in the tax rate will decrease the weighted average cost of capital for the company.

Explanation:

A)

The formula to calculate the cost of equity is:

cost of equity = risk free rate of return + [Beta × (market rate of return – risk free rate of return)]

e.g. market rate 15%, risk free rate 5%:

cost of equity = 5% + [1.2 x (15% - 5%)] = 5% + 12% = 17%

if the risk free rate decreases to 3%:

cost of equity = 3% + [1.2 x (15% - 3%)] = 3% + 14.4% = 17.4%

B)

the WACC formula = (cost of equity x weight of equity) + [cost of debt x weight of debt x (1- tax rate)]

if the tax rate increases, then the WACC will decrease because (1 - tax rate) will be lower.
