a. The switchover from 200% DB to SL should happen from Year 7.
b. Depreciation for Year 9 is $3,759.84
Since, the trade in is for $15,000, the same should be added to the cost of new assets because the new asset has been reduced by the amount of trade-in. Therefore, the value of new asset should be $50,000 + $15,000 = $65,000.

Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Nominal interest rate= 0.05
Real interest rate= 0.02
<u>To calculate the inflation rate, we need to use the following formula:</u>

(D) - It engages in Foreign Direct Investment, which by itself raises US net capital outflow
Explanation:
Foreign Direct Investments (FDIs) are investments in physical assets, infrastructures, etc and other long-term assets made in a foreign country. They differ from Foreign Portfolio Investments (FPIs) which are investments in stocks, bonds, treasury securities and other listed securities which can be sold easily in financial markets. For instance, when a US-based corporation invests in the stocks or bonds of a French company, this is FPI. Whereas, when the US-based corporation establishes a company in France by investing as plants and machinery, this is FDI.
FDIs requires cash commitment for investing in the foreign nation. However, because the assets created as a result of these investments are owned by the originating country, it increases the volume of assets the country has abroad leading to an increase in net capital outflow. Net Capital Outflow is the volume of capital investment made by a nation in other countries, less the capital investment made by other countries into the nation.
Therefore, when Stryker builds and operate a new factory in France, it engages in Foreign Direct Investment. By itself this action raises US net capital outflow.
