Answer:

The correct answer is d. Trade restrictions often provide benefits to highly visible special interest groups while imposing a less visible cost on the general populace.

Explanation:

A trade restriction is an artificial restriction to the exchange of goods and / or services between two countries. It is the byproduct of protectionism. However, the term is controversial because what a party can see as a trade restriction can be seen as a way to protect consumers from inferior, harmful or dangerous products. For example, Germany demanded that beer production adhere to its purity law. The law, originally implemented in Bavaria in 1516 and eventually converted into a law for the newly unified Germany in 1871, meant that many foreign beers could not be sold in Germany as "beer." This law was annulled in 1987 by the Court of Justice of the European Union, but remains voluntarily followed by many German breweries.

George bought a car for $26,500. he made no down-payment and financed the entire amount on a 5-year term with a monthly payment
pentagon [3]
Given:
Principal, P = 26500
term=5 years
Monthly payment, A = 695

Question: Find interest rate

Solution:
Unless there is a table available, there is no explicit formula to calculate interest.  However, the interest rate can be solved for using the formula to calculate the monthly payment, as follows.

A=\frac{P(i*(1+i)^{n})}{(1+i)^{n}-1}
Substituting 
P=26500
i=monthly interest rate to be found
A=monthly payment=695
n=5*12=60 months
A=\frac{26500(i*(1+i)^{60})}{(1+i)^{60}-1}
Rearrange to give successive estimates of i by
I(i)=(695/26500)*((1+i)^60-1)/(1+i)^60
Try initial estimate of i=0.02  (2% per month)
I(0.02)=0.0182
I(0.0182)=0.01736
I(0.01736)=0.01689
....
Eventually we get the value to stabilize at i=0.016265, or
Monthly interest = 1.6265% (to four decimal places)
