Answer:

Present value = $416666.6667 rounded off to $416666.67

Explanation:

To calculate the most the firm could pay for the project, we will need to calculate the present value of the project when discounted at the WACC for the project, which is equal to the WACC for the firm in this case. The cashflows from the project will be perpetual, thus we will use the formula for the present value of perpetuity.

Present value of perpetuity = Cash flow / r

Where,

r is the rate of discount or discount factor which in this case is WACC

Present value = 50000 / 0.12

Present value = $416666.6667 rounded off to $416666.67

Answer:

It is true that raising gasoline prices (either by producing less of it, or by adding taxes) would reduce gasoline use. The concept of price elasticity of demand can helps us explain why.

Explanation:

A good can be either elastic or inelastic depending on its price elasticity of demand. A price elasticity of demand of less than 1 is considered inelastic, while a price elasticity of demand higher than 1 is considered elastic.

Elastic goods are those whose quantity demanded falls or rises more than the price. Inelastic goods are those whose quantity demanded falls or rises less than the price.

Gasoline is a inelastic good in the short-term because even with a price hike, most people will still buy gasoline because they need to move around. However, in the long-term, gasoline becomes more elastic because people replace their buy electric cars, or cars that use less fuel, etc.

What this tells us is that raising gasoline prices can reduce gasoline use in the long-term.

A built-in injustice in this measure is that it affects the poor disproportionally. Poor people also need cars to get around, and a rise in the gasoline price means that they have less money for other basic needs.

Valentin [98]

Answer:

a. $5

b. $4

c. $6

a. store A?

Beginning balance = $300

June finance charge = Average balance × Monthly APR = $250 × 2% = $5

June finance charge = (Beginning balance - Payments) × Monthly APR = ($300 - $100) × 2% = $4

c. store C?

June finance charge = Beginning balance × Monthly APR = $300 × 2% = $6

ollegr [7]

Answer:

a. should be discouraged because it lessens a quality that makes that antique desirable

Explanation:

In pricing theory, the price for a good or service should increase as its scarcity increases. Now selling the antique at a bargain price will reduce the price of it and thereby making it less scarce and rare.
