Answer:

Option (C) is correct.

Explanation:

In an unregulated market, negative externality results in a higher social marginal cost than the firm marginal cost because this market is not properly regulated by the government officials. Hence, these firms are not taking into account the effect of negative externalities in their cost.

We know that the consumer's decision is more offenly based on the point where the marginal cost is equal to the marginal benefit because they are not taking the impact of negative externalities.

Kaylis [27]

Answer:

$3,520.65

Explanation:

The computation of the future value is shown below:

As we know that

Future value = Present value × (1 + interest rate)^number of years

= $250 × (1 + 0.0275)^5 + $450 × (1 + 0.0275)^4 + $650 × (1 + 0.0275)^3 + $850 × (1 + 0.0275)^2 + $1,100 × (1 + 0.0275)^1

= $286.32 + $501.58 + $705.11 + $897.39 + $1,130.25

= $3,520.65

We do the reversing time period and according to that the calculation can come.

defon

Answer:

The answer is B. -97.7.

Explanation:

As the question gives us the spot rate, the interest rates of two countries, We can apply the covered interest parity to calculate the 90-day forward exchange rate JPY/AUD from which 90-day forward points can be derived.

F = S x ( 1+ Rjpy) / ( 1+ Raud); in which Rjpy denoted as JPY interest rate ( 0.15% per annum) while Raud is AUD interest rate ( 4.95% per annum).

F = 82.42 x (1+ 0.15% x 90/360) / ( 1 + 4.95% x 90/360) = 81.443

=> The 90-day forward points is : 100 x ( F-S) = 100 x ( 81.443 - 82.42) = -97.7
