Answer:

The Earned Income credit

Explanation:

Many economists choose the earned income credit (EIC) over the increase in minimum wage because it avoids deadweight losses. Deadweight losses results when supply are demand are not in equilibrium (Market Inefficiency). Increases in minimum wages invariably leads to increase in prices of market goods which are overpriced. This leads to market Inefficiency.

So in trying to help low income earners, many economists choose the EIC over just increasing minimum wage.

The earned Income Credit helps certain tax payers with low incomes from work in a particular tax year. It reduces the amount of tax owed and may result in a refund to the tax payers if the amount of credit is greater than the amount of tax owed.

On October 1, 2020 Sheffield Corp. issued 5%, 10-year bonds with a face value of $6140000 at 104. Interest is paid on October 1
lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer: $70610

Explanation:

Following the information given, the issue price of the bond will be:

= $6,140,000 × 1.04

= $6,385,600

The premium on bonds payables will be:

= $6,385,600 - $6,140,000

= $245,600

Cash interest Payables will be:

= 6,140,000 × 5% × 3/12

= $76,750

Bond Premium amortization for Each Year will be:

= 245,600 / 10

= $24,560

Then, the premium amortized will be:

= $24,560 × 3/12

= $6,140

Therefore, the interest expenses on Dec 31 will be:

= Cash interset Payables - Premium amortized

= $76,750 - $6,140

= $70,610

given data

Interest rates r1 = 6.05% = 0.0605

Interest rates r2 = 7.6% = 0.0760

to find out

2 year  yielding 4 years from now

solution

we find here  2 year securities will be yielding 4 years from now by as

2 year yield 4 years from now = \frac{(1+r2)^{t2}}{[(1+r1)^{t1}]^{0.5}} - 1

put here value we get

2 year yield 4 years from now = \frac{(1+0.0760)^6}{[(1+0.0605)^4]^{0.5}} - 1

2 year yield 4 years from now = 1.379915 - 1

2 year yield 4 years from now = .379915

so 2 year yield 4 years from now 37.99%
