Answer:

Lorland

Zhangia

sandals

smoothies

Explanation:

A country should specialise goods for which it has a comparative advantage in its production.

A country should import goods for which it has no comparative advantage in its production.

A country has comparative advantage in production if it produces at a lower opportunity cost when compared to other countries.

Lorland

Opportunity cost in the production of one smoothie = 8/2 = 4

Opportunity cost in the production of one sandal = 2/8 = 0.25

Zhangia

Opportunity cost in the production of one smoothie = 5/1 = 5

Opportunity cost in the production of one sandal = 1/5 = 0.2

Zhangia has a comparative advantage inn the production of sandals and should specialise in the production of sandals while lorland has a comparative advantage in the production of smoothies specialise in the production of smoothies

Loriland should import sandals and export smoothies

Fortune Enterprises is an all-equity firm that is considering issuing $13.5 million of perpetual debt. The interest rate is 10%.
Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

d. Debt holders get $0 mil. under the unlevered plan vs. 0.6075 mil. under the levered plan

Explanation:

interests paid to debt holders = $13,500,000 x 10% = $1,350,000

generally, interest revenue is taxed as ordinary revenue = corporate income tax rate (if debt holder is a business) or personal income tax (if debt holder is an individual).

under the first plan, debt holders get nothing because there is no outstanding debt since the company is an all equity firm.

under the second plan, if the personal tax rate on interest income is 55%, which is really high, the debt holders will earn $1,350,000 x (1 - 55%) = $607,500
