Answer:
The economic surplus will decrease by $2.20
Explanation:
$81.40 and $79.20 are <em>marginal </em>cost and benefit, which are the changes to total costs and total benefits due to producing and consuming one additional barrel of oil.
They can be used to calculate <em>change </em>to economic surplus, which is the change to the net economic value received by society, which is given by:
marginal benefit - marginal cost = $79.20 - $81.40 = - $2.20
Answer:
7%
Explanation:
It would grow by 7% each year which is the rate of return on stocks
Answer:
Year 1 = $1,100
Year 2 = $1,330
Year 3 = $1,550
Year 4 = $2,290
(a) If the discount rate is 6 percent, then the future value of these cash flows in Year 4:
To solve this problem, we must find the FV of each cash flow and add them. To find the FV of a lump sum, we use:


= $6737.51
(b) If the discount rate is 14 percent, then the future value of these cash flows in Year 4:

= $7415.17
(c) If the discount rate is 21 percent, then the future value of these cash flows in Year 4:

= $8061.47
Answer:
James' credit union loan rate is 8.88% APR, the local bank loan rate is 9.34% APR.
Explanation:
Hi, since in both cases payments would be done in a monthly basis, we have to assume that the rate that we are looking for is APR (compounded monthly), and since there is no additional information in regards that 9.25% rate, we can assume that this is effective annually, so let´s convert this effective monthly rate into APR (compounded monthly)
First, we have to convert it into an effective monthly rate, that is:


Then we multiply by 12 and we get 0,088796 , which is 8.88% APR (compounded monthly)
This way James can compare both credits. The cheaper loan is from the credit union.
