Answer:

A. People earning $35,000 pay 10% tax, while people earning $100,000 pay 30% tax

Explanation:

Progressive tax is characterized by the percentage difference in collection, which will vary according to income. This way, people with higher incomes will pay a higher tax and people with lower incomes will pay a lower tax rate. Typically, this type of tax has multiple tiers of tax for various types of income. In contrast, regressive tax is characterized by the charging of a homogeneous percentage rate of all persons, regardless of income. Thus, people with lower incomes will pay proportionally more in relation to their income than the richer ones, so it is considered a regressive tax. Therefore the only alternative that represents a progressive tax is alternative (A), where the tax rate is different for income levels. Those with $ 35,000 income will pay 10% and those with higher income $ 100,000 will pay 35% tax.

Answer:

With mitigation: NPV =$36,670,000, IRR= 15,24%

Without mitigation: NPV= $ 42,000,000, IRR= 19,86%

Explanation:

To calculate the Net Present Value (NPV) we have to sum the present value of a project´s cash flows (positive and negative cashflows). To do so, we need: the number of periods of the project, the discount rate, cost of captal or WACC, and the future values of the cash flows. Then we apply the formula attached.

To calculate the Internal Rate of Return (IRR) we have to find the discount rate, cost of capital or WACC that makes the NPV equal to cero. That means we have to find a rate in which the investor do not create or destroy value, only recovers the investment. I attached the formula.

But, this is better if we use excel:

First we copy the cash flows of the two projects. To find the NPV we use the financial formula "NPV" in this way:

"=NPV(rate;cash flows from year 1 to year 5)+ cash flow of year 0"

To find the IRR we use the financial formula "IRR" in this way:

"=IRR(cash flows from year 0 to year 5)"

I attached the excel figure.

Differential Profit = $330,000

Explanation:

A differential analysis is a managerial accounting technique that considers factors that are unique to each decision and uses those factors to arrive at a decision.

It is also called incremental analysis. In the analysis, differential revenue of each alternative and their differential costs are compared to find the alternative that yields the greater profits.

Fixed costs or sunk costs are not taken into account with this type of analysis. Only the variable costs are considered, because they make the differences.
