Answer:

dumping

Explanation:

Dumping in international trade refers to exporting goods to another country at a lower price than in the domestic market. A company or country involved in dumping may sell goods in a foreign country below the production cost. The objective is to gain market penetration and acquire a sizable market share in the targeted country.

Dumping enables customers in the importing country to buy goods at a lower price. However, it may kill local industries leading to the closure of businesses and layoffs.

Which of the choices describes how the effects of import tariffs and import quotas are different? The domestic cost of an import

tatuchka [14]

Answer:

Quotas do not affect the equilibrium price, whereas tariffs do not affect the equilibrium quantity.

Explanation:

The import tariff decreases the import quality from AD to CB and increases the price of the good from P to P*. The import restricting effect and consumption effect is same for quotas and tariff. So, the deadweight loss from them is the same from quotas and tariff (HIJ and GEF).

Please observe the image attached.

However, tariff enables the government to increase their revenue from the imports while import quotas precludes such revenue (GEHI). Thus, the cost tariff is lower than the import quotas imposed.

Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

1.35

Explanation:

Systemic risk is measured by beta. The higher beta is, the higher the systemic risk and the higher the compensation demanded for by investors

According to the capital asset price model: Expected rate of return = risk free + beta x (market rate of return - risk free rate of return)

14.48 = 3.42 + b(11.6 - 3.42)

14.48 = 3.42 + b8.18

14.48 - 3.42 = 8.18b

11.06/8.18 = 1.35

Nick is considering investing in a two year $10,000 bond paying a coupon rate of 4%. The market interest rate is 5%. Calculate t

LiRa [457]

Answer:

$9,813.76

Explanation:

The net present value of the bond can be calculated using the following formula:

PV of Bond ($) = PV of future coupon payments (Step1) + PV of redemption Amount

So here

PV of Bond ($) = $743.76 (Step1) + $10,000 x Discount Factor at 5% and 2 years time

PV of Bond ($) = $743.76 + $10,000 / (1+5%)^2 = $743.76 + $9,070

PV of Bond ($) = $9,813.76

Step 1: PV of future coupon payments

And Present value of this annual cash flow that would be received in first 2 years is:

Present Value = Future Annual Cash Inflow (Step2) * Annuity factor at 5% and at 2 years time

Present Value = $400 * [1 - (1+r)^-n] / r

= $400 * [1 - (1+5%)^-2] / 5% = $400 x 1.8594 = $743.76

Step 2: Future Annual Cash Inflow

Annual return is the coupon interest received, so this implies that:

Annual Cash Inflow = Face value * Coupon rate

Here

Face value of the bond is $10,000

Coupon rate is 4%

So by putting values, we have:

Annual Cash Inflow = $10,000 x 4% = $400
