Answer:
The Earned Income credit
Explanation:
Many economists choose the earned income credit (EIC) over the increase in minimum wage because it avoids deadweight losses. Deadweight losses results when supply are demand are not in equilibrium (Market Inefficiency). Increases in minimum wages invariably leads to increase in prices of market goods which are overpriced. This leads to market Inefficiency.
So in trying to help low income earners, many economists choose the EIC over just increasing minimum wage.
The earned Income Credit helps certain tax payers with low incomes from work in a particular tax year. It reduces the amount of tax owed and may result in a refund to the tax payers if the amount of credit is greater than the amount of tax owed.
Answer
Price of bond = 17.96825
Explanation:
Bond price = ∑(C /
)+ P /
where
n = no. of years
C = Coupon payments
YTM = interest rate or required yield
P = Par Value of the bond
put values in above equation
price = (5.66%/2) × 2000 × (0.31746) + ( 2000 ÷ 4.595×
)
= 17.96825
Answer:
Explanation:
Total cost per unit <u><em>(Which is calculated by adding up the fixed costs and variable costs and dividing by the overall quantity of units produced.)</em></u> is calculated below:
(20 + 30 + 8 + 13 + 12 + 7)
90
Desired return
20% on 1440000
288000
Per unit 288000/10000.
28.8
Markup on cost
Desired return per unit
28.8
Cost 90
28.8 /90 = 32% on cost
Target sale price
90+28.8
= 118.8
Answer:
3.5%
Explanation:
We will apply asset pricing model to calculate cost of equity (required rate of return). The capital asset pricing model is stated as below:
Cost of equity = Risk-free rate + Beta x Market risk premium
Putting all the number together, we have:
Cost of equity (Beale) = 5.5% + 1.8 x (9% - 5.5%) = 11.8%
Cost of equity (Foley) = 5.5% + 0.8 x (9% - 5.5%) = 8.3%
Cost of equity (Beale) - Cost of equity (Foley) = 11.8% - 8.3% = 3.5%
<em />
<em>Note: You can also do quick calculation as below:</em>
<em>Cost of equity (Beale) - Cost of equity (Foley) = (Beta of Beale - Bete of Foley) x Market risk premium = (1.8 - 0.8) x (9% - 5.5%) = 3.5%</em>
