Answer:

Option C 16.36% is correct.

Explanation:

We can find the growth using the following growth formula:

g = (Earning per share today / Earning per share n years ago)^(1/5)  - 1

EPS of this year is $3.2 per share and 5 ago was $1.5 per share.

So by putting values we have:

g = (3.2 / 1.5) ^(1/5)  - 1  = 16.36%

The right option is C.

Tems11 [23]

Answer:

Efficiency requires that one lighthouse is built since the willingness to pay of all the residents together is larger than the cost of providing the lighthouse

Explanation:

Since the lighthouse is a public good, according to the coase theorem, if the combined willingness to pay for the lighthouse of all of the people living on the islands is higher than the cost of the lighthouse, then a lighthouse should be built.

The total willingness to pay is:

W = \$1000+\$1200+\$500 = \$2700

The population willingness to pay is higher than the cost of building one lighthouse ($2000) but lower than the cost of building two lighthouses ($4000). Therefore, efficiency requires that one lighthouse is built since the willingness to pay of all the residents together is larger than the cost of providing the lighthouse.
