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

Answer: the correct answer is Wisconsin gains 300, Illinois loses 100.

Explanation:

Wisconsin won't clean the lake so we have to leave it out of the calculation.

Now Illinois is the one that spends 700 but receives just 600 in benefits.

700-600= 100 ( Illinois loss)

Out of the 900 generated for cleaning the lake, Michigan gets 300, because Wiconsin receives 600, that is,

900-600 =300 ( Wisconsin gain)   (*Remember Wisconsin hasn't spent any single penny because it hasn't clean the lake).

The Lynx Manufacturing Company produces components used in electronic toys. In fiscal year 2017, Lynx earned an accounting profi
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

The correct answer is option B.

Explanation:

In 2017, Lynx earned an accounting profit of $3 million.

Lynx's production facilities might have also been used to produce components for mobile phones, which would have generated $2 million in revenues and saved the company $500,000 in production costs.

The accounting profit involves only explicit costs. While economic profit includes both explicit as well as implicit cost.

Here, the implicit cost is the opportunity cost of producing toys components. Lynx could have earned greater profit if it produced components for mobile phone and also could have saved cost of production.

Economic profit

= accounting profit - implicit cost

= $3 million - ($2 million + $500,000)

= $3 million - $2.5 million

= $500,000

So, Lynx  had an economic profit of $500,000.

Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

Price we are wiling to pay = $46.429

Explanation:

Hi, this can be calculated using the dividend discount model

Stock price we are willing to pay  = D / (r - g) where,

D = Dividend

r = required rate of return of investor

g = growth

So working the formula gives us,

Price = 1.95 / (0.085 - 0.043)

Price = $46.429

This is the price we are willing to pay.

Hope that helps.
