Question Completion:
Assume that the price per ton of oranges in the international market is $810 and equilibrium is established at the price of $900 for 120 tons.
Answer:
If Bangladesh is open to international trade in oranges without any restrictions, it will ____import____ tons of oranges. Suppose the Bangladeshi government wants to reduce imports to exactly 120 tons of oranges to help domestic producers. A tariff of ____$90____ per ton will achieve this. A tariff set at this level would raise $___10,800______ in revenue for the Bangladeshi government.
Explanation:
A tariff of $90 per ton will raise the price of a ton of oranges to $900 ($810 per ton as indicated on the question). When the price is raised to $900 in the domestic market, the quantity demanded will equalize with the quantity supplied at 120 tons.
Answer: $428,000
Explanation:
Given that,
Accounts payable = $62,000
Accounts receivable = 100,000
Cash = 30,000
Inventory = 138,000
Land = 160,000
Common Stock = 200,000
Revenue = 80,000
Dividends = 56,000
Expenses = 40,000
Total assets = Accounts receivable + Cash + Inventory + Land
= 100,000 + 30,000 + 138,000 + 160,000
= $428,000
Answer:
$21,080.2
Explanation:
The price of the car will be the down-payment plus the future value of 375 paid each month for 5 years compounded monthly at 9.72%.
The formula for calculating future value is
PV = P × 1 − (1+r)−n
r
PV is $350
r is 9.72 % or 0.0972 % per year or 0.0081
t is five year or 60 months
FV = 350 x (1-(1+0.0081)-60
0.0081
Fv =350 x 1-0.61628715419
0.0081
FV =350 x( 0.38371284581/0.00810
FV =350 x 47.371956
FV =16,580.20
The value of the car = $4500 + 16,580.20
=$21,080.2
Answer:
The effective rate of protection for the U.S. steel industry is approximately 17.5%
Explanation:
Mathematically, the effective rate of protection is calculated as follows;
e = (n-ab)/(1-a)
where n is the nominal tariff rate on the final product , a is the ratio of the value of the imported input to the value of the finished product and b is the nominal tariff rate on the imported input
Mathematically;
a = value of iron ore/value of steel = 100,00/500,000 = 1/5 = 0.2
From the question, we can see that nominal tariff rate for steel n = 15% = 15/100 = 0.15
The nominal rate for iron ore b = 5% = 5/100 = 0.05
So we substitute all of these into the equation of e above
e = {0.15-0.2(0.05)}/(1-0.2) = (0.15-0.01)/0.8 = 0.14/0.8 = 0.175 which is same as 17.5%
