Answer:

The both firms lose and the consumers gain

Explanation:

This scenario paints the picture of a Price war.

A price war is a competition strategy known by repeatedly cutting prices below those of competitors.

As a competitor lowers its price, then others will lower their prices to match.

Eventually, price wars are beneficial to the buyers who are consumers, who can take advantage of lower prices.

Price cutting is not good for any of the competing companies involved because the lower prices reduce profit margins and can threaten their survival.

If this practice of price reduction continues the monopoly profits are erased, and the smaller, more marginal or less efficient firms cannot compete and must close.

Suppose a tax of $3 is imposed on each new garden hose that is sold, resulting in a deadweight loss of $22,500. The supply curve
liq [111]

Answer: Equilibrium quantity of garden hoses after the tax is imposed is 85000.

Explanation:

Given that,

Dead weight Loss = $22500

Tax amount per unit (t) = $3

Equilibrium quantity before tax, Q_{b} = 1,00,000 units

Equilibrium quantity after tax, Q_{a} = ?

Dead weight Loss = \frac{1}{2} \times t \times (Q_{b} - Q_{a})

22500 = 0.5 × 3 × (100000 - Q_{a})

Q_{a} = 85000 units

∴ Equilibrium quantity of garden hoses after the tax is imposed is 85000.

Addison company will issue a zero-coupon bond this coming month. The projected yield for the bond is 7%. If the par value of the
horsena [70]

Answer:

If the bond is zero coupon then there only be one lump sum payment at the end of the bond period and we will have to discount is back using the yield of the  bond to find its present value or price. Because the convention is semi annual we will divide interest by 2 to find the semi annual interest rate and to number of periods we will multiply years by 2 because of semi annual convention.

Yield= 7/2= 3.5%

a. the maturity is 20 years

We have to discount 1,000 20 years back which means 40 periods back as 20*2= 40

1,000/1.035^40=252.5725

The present value of a zero coupon $1000 bond will be $252.5725 when the yield is 7% and maturity is 20 years.

b. the maturity is 30 years

We have to discount 1,000 30 years back which means 60 periods back as 30*2= 60

1000/1.035^60=126.93

The present value of a zero coupon $1000 bond will be 126.93 when the yield is 7% and maturity is 30 years.

c. the maturity is 50 years

We have to discount 1,000 50 years back which means 100 periods back as 50*2= 100

1000/1.035^100= 32.06

The present value of a zero coupon $1000 bond will be $32.06 when the yield is 7% and maturity is 50 years.

d. the maturity is 100 years

We have to discount 1,000 100 years back which means 200 periods back as 50*2= 200

1000/1.035^200= 1.02

The present value of a zero coupon $1000 bond will be $1.02 when the yield is 7% and maturity is 100 years.

Airborne Airlines Inc. has a $1,000 par value bond outstanding with 20 years to maturity. The bond carries an annual interest pa
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

7.52%

Explanation:

First and foremost ,the yield to maturity on the old issue is computed using the rate formula in excel as calculated below:

=rate(nper,pmt,-pv,fv)

the nper is the number of times the bond would pay annual coupon interest of $106,which is 20 times

pmt is the amount of annual coupon payment which is $106

pv is the current price of the bond at $860

fv is the face value of the bond at $1000

=rate(20,106,-860,1000)=12.54%

The yield to maturity on the new issue is 12.54%  as well

after-tax cost of debt=pretax cost of debt*(1-t)

pretax cost of debt is yield to maturity of 12.54%

t is the tax rate of 40% or 0.4

after-tax cost of debt=12.54% *(1-0.4)=7.52%
