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.

madam [21]

Answer:

B) People face trade-offs

Explanation:

A trade-off happens when you have to balance two (or three in this case) opposing situations. In economics all resources are scarce, and time is the only resource that everyone shares equally. Bob is facing opportunity costs, i.e. if he chooses to train one activity he cannot train the other.

Bob has to decide how to divide the time he can spend training. If he chooses running, he can´t swim or ride a bike. So he has to balance the time spent on each activity, probably depending on which sport he needs to train the most.

Approximately two decades after a "baby boom," one could expect___________.
lana [24]

Answer:

b. an outward shift of the production possibilities curve along both axes

Explanation:

As we know that outward shift refers to the growth.

Baby boomers is a term used for the human generation born between 1946 and 1964 after the end of world war 2 when the birth rate across the world was narrowed and thereafter the emerging births of new infants were known as Baby Boom.

The main reasons of this outward shift were:

  • People started new families to cover the life gap of the loved ones they lost during the world war
  • People hoped that coming era will be of peace and business growth which they actually saw thereafter
  • People hoped to see the economic growth in upcoming years leading them towards business expansions and production growths as well

The Stone Harbor Fund is a closed-end investment company with a portfolio currently worth $310 million. It has liabilities of $3
defon

Answer: 8.79%

Explanation:

The premium or discount as a percent of NAV will be calculated thus:

NAV will be calculated as:

= (Market value of portfolio - liabilities ) / shares outstanding

= ($310 million - $3million) ÷ 10 million

= $30.7 per share.

Then, the calculation for the discount percent will be:

= (selling price - NAV) / NAV

= ($28 - $30.7) / $30.7

= ($-2.7) / $30.7

= (0.0879)

= 8.79%

Therefore, NAV is trading at discount of 8.79%
