2 answers:

8 0

One argument for is that exports help improve the terms of trade of a country and also opens markets for domestic producers, meaning they can grow, employ more workers, earn more income, etc. Another argument for is that it increases competition, as there are goods coming in from all corners of the world, which may pressure domestic pressures to be more competitive and innovative with their products, improving its quality and product choice.

An argument for protectionism could be that imports may actually be harming domestic producers, which as we can see from President Trump's rhetoric, we can deduce that cheap imports from China will take sales revenue away from American producers and potentially cause them to lose customers and close down. Another argument for is that quotas and tariffs will make imports more expensive, which may make domestic products more price competitive.

Regarding the opinions, come up with it yourself. Think of the pros and cons and make a balanced judgement.

Murray Motor Company wants you to calculate its cost of common stock. During the next 12 months, the company expects to pay divi

Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

a. Compute the cost of retained earnings (Ke)

$60 = $3 / (Ke - 8%)

Ke - 8% = $3 / $60 = 5%

Ke = 13%

b. If a $5 flotation cost is involved, compute the cost of new common stock (Kn).

$60 (1 - $5/$60) = $3 / (Kn - 8%)

$55 = $3 / (Kn - 8%)

Kn - 8% = $3 / $55 = 5.45%

Kn = 13.45%

Flotation costs reduce the amount of money that the company receives for every new stock that it issues, therefore, it increases the cost of new stocks.

-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

Option A. The U.S. Constitution.

Explanation:

The reason is that the US constitution provides the basic framework for the laws to be formulated and passed both in the US National Assembly and the Senate. The laws cannot be formulated if the US constitution doesn't allows the passing of the law which means that the constitution must be amended first. When the slavery was to be eliminated in 1865, the first problem was that passing the elimination of slavery law was inconflict with the US constitution. So the constitution was amended before passing the law to eliminate the conflict.

In the nutshell, every law originates because of different reasons like Technological reasons, Social reasons, Cultural reason, etc) but the basis remains the same which is US constitution which is the basic framework for passing the law.

Baker's Supply imposes a payback cutoff of 3.5 years for its international investment projects. If the company has the following

sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

Both projects fall within the acceptable payback period, so, both projects can be accepted.

Explanation:

Cash payback period measures how long it takes for the amount invested in a project to be recovered from the cumulative cash flows.

Pay back period For project A:

Amount invested in the project = −$ 62,000

Amount recovered in year 1 = −$ 62,000 + 7,100 = $-54,900

Amount recovered in year 2 = $-54,900 + 9,800 = $-45,100

Amount recovered in year 3 = $-45,100 + 28,700 = $-16,400

Amount recovered in year 4 = $-16,400 + 45,900 = $29,500

The amount is recovered In 3 years + 16400 / 45900 = 3.36 years

Cash payback period for project B:

Amount invested in the project = −$ 26,000

Amount recovered in year 1 = −$ 26,000 + 15,600 = $-10,400

Amount recovered in year 2 = $-10,400 + 8,400 = $-2000

Amount recovered in year 3 = $-2000 + 1,900 = $-100

Amount recovered in year 4 = $-100 + 1,100 = $1000

The amount invested is recovered In 3 years + 100/1,100 = 3.09 years.

Both projects fall within the acceptable payback period, so, both projects can be accepted.
