Answer:

178 and 186

Regulation= 1,645

Tradable permits= 745

Elimination of pollution will be LESS costly

Explanation:

Calculation to Determine the total cost of eliminating six units of pollution using both methods

Computation for Method 1

REGULATION

Firm X = 95+120 = 215

Firm Y= 450+800 = 1,250

Firm Z= 80+100 = 180

Computation for Method 2

TRADABLE PERMITS

The prices at which firm Z willing to sell one of its permits to firm Y, but firm X is not will be :

178 and 186

Firm Initial permit Action Final Amount Cost of reduction

X 2 Sell 1 permit 3 95+120+200 = 415

Y 2 Buy 2 permit 0 0

Z 2 Sell 1 permit 3 80+100+150 = 330

REGULATION vs TRADABLE PERMITS

Regulation= 215+1250+180

Regulation= 1,645

Tradable permits = 415+330

Tradable permits= 745

Based on the above calculation for both regulation and tradable permits we can come to conclusion that elimination of pollution will be LESS costly to the society in a situation where the government distributes tradable permits because tradable permits is cheaper than regulation.

ozzi

Answer:

Ke 0.08690 = 8.69%

Explanation:

<u>The capital assets price model formula(CAPM) is as follows:</u>

Ke= r_f + \beta (r_m-r_f)  

risk free       = 4% = 4/100 = 0.04

market rate = 11% = 11/100 = 0. 11

premium market: (market rate - risk free) = (0.11-0.04) = 0.07

Beta(non diversifiable risk) 0.67

Ke= 0.04 + 0.67 (0.07)  

Ke 0.08690

You just decided to begin saving for retirement. You will make deposits of $1,000 per month into a retirement account that earns
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

Monthly withdraw= $4,752.01

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Monthly deposit= $1,000

Number of perios= 361 months

Interest rate= 0.08/12= 0.0067

<u>First, we need to calculate the Future Value at the moment of retirement:</u>

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i

A= monthly deposit

FV= {1,000*[(1.0067^361) - 1]} / 0.0067

FV= $1,513,584.37

<u>Now, we can calculate the monthly withdraw:</u>

PV= 1,513,584.37 - 900,000= $613,584.27

Monthly withdraw= (FV*i) / [1 - (1+i)^(-n)]

Monthly withdraw= (613,584.37*0.0067) / [1 - (1.0067^-300)]

Monthly withdraw= $4,752.01
