Answer:

The correct answer is option A.

Explanation:

A negative externality refers to the situation when the cost of production is borne by a third party which is not involved in the production process.

In case there is a negative externality present, the marginal social cost will be greater than the marginal private cost. The competitive price will be lower than the socially optimal price.

Since a third party partially bears the cost, the producer will be able to produce more than the optimal level. There will be a deadweight loss of social welfare.

zhannawk [14.2K]
Contribution margin is calculated via subtracting the variable cost per unit to the sales price per unit. In equation, we have

Contribution margin = Sales Price - Variable Cost

Contribution margin ratio is calculated via dividing the contribution margin with the sales price. In equation, we have

Contribution margin ratio = contribution margin/sales price

Substituting the given values,
Contribution margin ratio for 65$ variable cost = (120-65)/120 = 0.4583 
Contribution margin ratio for 58$ variable cost = (120-58)/120 = 0.5167

<em>ANSWERS: 0.4583 or 45.83% and 0.5167 or 51.67%</em>

<u>The effective rate will have into consideration the compounding effect:</u>

(1+r_m)^{12}  = 1 + r_e

(1+0.274)^{12}  -1 = r_e
