Answer:

15%

Explanation:

If Miranda works 40 hours a week at a wage rate of ​$25. and she ​however calculates that on the last hour that she​ works, she pays ​$3.75. then her marginal tax rate is derived as follows

<em>The marginal tax rate is the incremental tax paid on incremental income.</em>

From the scenario, we are given the following:

Weekly wage rate is $25.

Weekly tax pay is $3.75

Hence, Marginal tax rate  can be computed as = $3.75 / $25 = 15%

Anna11 [10]

Answer:

OPTION C i.e 11%

Option A i.e 30.55 year

Explanation:

we know that capital can be calculated as

Capital = EMI \times PVIFA

capital = EMI \times \frac{(1+r))^n -1}{r (1+r)^n}

from the data given in question we can calculate the value of r

so

5890.2 = 1250 \times \frac{(1+r))^7 -1}{r (1+r)^7}

4.7122 = \frac{(1+r))^7 -1}{r (1+r)^7}

solving for r we get

r = 11%

option C

we know that

Total\ saving  =  cash flow \times FVIFA

                      = Cash\ flow \times \frac{(1+r)^n -1}{r}

from the data given we can evealueate the value of n

8,452,622 = 40,000 \times \frac{(1.11)^n -1}{0.11}

\frac{8452622}{40000}\times 0.11 = (1.11)^n -1

solving for n we get

n = 30.55 year.

Option A

A firm has estimated the following demand function for its product:
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

(i) Q=300

(ii) Elasticity of Demand=-3.33 (elastic)

(iii) Income Elasticity= 2.5 (normal good)

(iv) Advertising Elasticity: 1.5

Explanation:

The Demand function is given by

Q=100-5P+5I+15A

(1) To solve (i) we need to replace P = 200, I = 150, and A = 30 in the demand equation:

Q=100-5(200)+5(150)+15(30)=300

(2) To find the price elasticity (how much quantity demanded changes with price) we use the point price elasticity formula

\eta_{Price}=\frac{\Delta Q}{\Delta P}\frac{P}{Q}

From the above equation we get: \frac{\Delta Q}{\Delta P}=-5

Replacing in the elasticity formula

\eta_{Price}=-5\frac{200}{300}=|-3.33|>1

in absolute terms the elasticity is bigger than one so it is an elastic demand.

(3) For income elasticity (how much quantity demanded changes with income), we proceed similarly as above. But the derivative is respect to income

\eta_{Income}=\frac{\Delta Q}{\Delta I}\frac{I}{Q}=5\frac{150}{300}=2.5>1[/tex]

Which is bigger than one, denoting this is a normal good because it's bigger than one.

(4) Advertising elasticity (how much quantity demanded changes with expenditures in advertising), we proceed as before

\eta_{advertising}=\frac{\Delta Q}{\Delta A}\frac{A}{Q}=15\frac{30}{300}=1.5

Setler [38]

Answer:

Cost of external equity= 26.9%

Explanation

<em>According to the dividend valuation, the value of a stock is the present value of expected future dividends discounted at the required rate of return.</em>

The model can me modified to determined the cost of equity having flotation cost as follows:

Ke = D(1+r )/P(1-f) + g

Ke= Cost of equity

D- current dividend,

D(1+g) - dividend next year

p- price of stock - 31,00$

f - flotation cost - 14%

g- growth rate - 7%

Ke= 5.30/31× (1-0.14)  +  0.07

 = 0.2687997  × 100

= 26.9%

Rasek [7]

Answer:

$4,013.10.

$3,329.54.

Explanation:

If discount rate is 8%

PV of Cash Flows :

($830 / 1.08^1) + ($1,150 / 1.08^2) + ($1,410 / 1.08^3) + ($1,550 / 1.08^4)

$768.52 + $985.94 + $1,119.30 + $1,139.30

$4,013.10

If discount rate is 16%

PV of Cash Flows :

($830 / 1.16^1) + ($1,150 / 1.16^2) + ($1,410 / 1.16^3) + ($1,550 / 1.16^4)

$715.52 + $854.64 + $903.33 + $856.05

$3,329.54.
