Subsidies also distort resource allocation by encouraging excessive energy consumption, artificially promoting capital-intensive

industries, reducing incentives for investment in renewable energy, and accelerating the depletion of natural resources."____________

Agata [3.3K]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

True

Explanation:

This is a negative effect of energy subsidizes. Usually governments decide to subsidize energy consumption as a way of helping low income consumers and businesses. But at the end that doesn't happen and the results are quite the opposite. Most of the subsidies are taken by higher income families, e.g. big luxury homes use a lot of electricity. Subsidies end up reinforcing inequalities and the lower income families usually pay a higher percentage of the cost of having them.

rjkz [21]

Answer:

The source of income is the capital gain realized when Harry sold the stocks of Extel Corporation. Generally, nonresident aliens (like Harry) are subject to a 30% tax on all their US income sources. E.g. if Harry made a capital gain of $1,000 when he sold the stocks, he will need to pay $300 to the IRS.

Some exemptions apply to foreign students, resident aliens or people that work for foreign governments, but Harry doesn't fit in any of these categories.

Assume the expected return on the market is 9 percent and the risk-free rate is 4 percent. (a1) What is the expected return for
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

r or expected rate of return = 0.13 or 13%

Explanation:

Using the CAPM, we can calculate the required/expected rate of return on a stock. This is the minimum return required by the investors to invest in a stock based on its systematic risk, the market's risk premium and the risk free rate.

The formula for required rate of return under CAPM is,

r = rRF + Beta * (rM - rRF)

Where,

  • rRF is the risk free rate
  • rM is the market return

r = 0.04 + 1.80 * (0.09 - 0.04)

r or expected rate of return = 0.13 or 13%

Agata [3.3K]

One of the most important factors in forming a successful venture in China is guanxi, which means personal relationships.

<h3>What is Guanxi?</h3>

Guanxi is a term that can be translated informally as social networks or personal ties. It operates on a personal, familial, social, business, and political level and entails mutual trust and duties between partners. One's influence and capacity for action are influenced by having good, bad, or no guanxi.

Guanxi is still significant while conducting business in China, but a number of considerations suggest that it may start to lose some of its significance. These include the opening up of the Chinese market, foreign direct investment, "guanxi learning" by foreign businesses, and internet intermediaries.

xeze [42]

Answer:

Opinions you have from talking to other jurors during the trial.

Opinions you have from seeing evidence during the trial.

Explanation:

A jury member or a juror is a member of a society who is selected to form a body of people who are sworn to act as interpreters of a court case. The jury body consists of 12 citizens selected by the court to act as an extra hand in solving a case, while at the same time, looking through evidence and statements given by the people involved in the case.

A jury member is not allowed to go home or talk about the case until it gets resolved. Their main job is to talk within themselves about the case, <u>provide information from the testimony of the case</u>, and <u>share opinions with each other</u>. They can also <u>discuss their opinions after seeing the evidence presented in court</u>. Such topics are allowed to be discussed within themselves so as to act as a 'judging' body in the case.
