Answer: hello your question is poorly structured attached below is the missing graph and missing part of the question

Assume the government imposes a $1.00 excise tax on the sale of every 2 liter bottle of soda. The tax is to be paid by the producers of soda. The figure below shows the annual market for 2 liter bottles of soda before and after the tax is imposed.

answer :

a) $2 , 4 billion

b) $2.5

c) $1.5

d) 3 billion

e) $3 billion

Explanation:

a) equilibrium price = $2 per bottle

   equilibrium quantity = 4 billion bottles

<u>b) After imposition of excise tax </u>

consumers will pay = $2.5

<u>c) The amount producers keep after the imposition of taxes </u>

= $2.5 - tax

= 2.5 - 1 = $1.5

<u>d) New equilibrium quantity ( after tax is imposed ) </u>

= 3 billion bottles ( from graph attached ) i.e. intersection of S2 and D

e)<u> Amount of tax revenue collected by the government from the imposition of tax </u>

= quantity  of bottles sold  * $1

= 3 billion * $1 =  $3 billion

Advocard [28]

Explanation:

Calculation for the amount that Ruby's IRA will be worth when she needs to start withdrawing money from it when she retires.

Ruby's IRA worth when she retires at age of 65

First step

Using this formula to find how many years until Ruby retires

Time period= Retired age (-) current age

Let plug in the formula

65-25=40 years

Second step is to find the future value of IRA when she retires

Using this formula

Future value of IRA when she retires

= Present value(1+r)t

Let plug in the formula

$ 11,400 (1+0.09) ^40

=$11,400 (1.09) ^40

=$ 11,400 (31.409)

= $ 358,063

Therefore the amout that Ruby's IRA will be worth when she needs to start withdrawing money from it when she retires will be $358,063

A customer holds 100 shares of ABC Corp $100 par convertible preferred stock convertible at a 10 to 1 ratio. If ABC declares and
Leviafan [203]

Answer:

B. 100 shares of ABC preferred stock

Explanation:

Shares are ownership stakes of a company that are given out to individuals who contribute to capital base of a company.

Preference shares are those whose owners recieve preference in payment of dividends, a fixed dividend is paid to them.

Ordinary shares recieve less preference when dividend is paid, usually coming last in divedend payment.

In this scenario ABC has decided to pay 10% stock dividend. This will be paid to ordinary share holders.

So the person with 100 preference shares will have 100 preference shares

10% of par value of $100 is 0.1 * 100= $10

Number of shares are 100 so the value is now 100 * $10 = $1,000

Since the conversion rate of preference to ordinary shares is 10:1

Number of preference shares= 1,000 ÷ 10= 100 preference shares
