Answer: more; externality; market power.

Explanation:

Bakers are much (more) likely to supply pastries to the market if property rights are not enforced.

a. A manufacturing plant dumps chemical waste into a nearby river, poisoning the water supply for a small town downstream. - Externality

Externality, refers to the benefit s or costs that someone else incurs based on the economic decision of another person. In this case, this is a negative externality as the small town bears the cost of the production activities of the company.

b. A single public utilities company is responsible for supplying electricity for an entire state. As a result, the utilities company can set the price of electricity - Market power

Market power is when a firm is able to dictate the price and can then raise the price. This brings about the reduction in output as well. Since the single public utilities company is responsible for supplying electricity for an entire state, the company is enjoying monopoly power or market power.

1. The interest tax shield (tax deductibility of interest) is a key reason why: the required rate of return on assets rises when
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

the net cost of debt to a firm is generally less than the cost of equity.

Explanation:

If we assume both, investor in firms and lender to firms want's a certain return x

because the lender return (the interest) are tax deductible the net cost of debt will be:  x ( 1 - t)

where t is the tax rate being rate beteen 0 and 1

as 1 less a fraction will be less than 1 we can stablish that:

x > x(1 - t)

x is the cost of equity

while x(1-t) is the net cost of debt

therefore, the cost of debt is lower than cost of equity.

Explanation:

July

1 Beg. Inventory         54        $122

5 Purchases            306         $114

14 Sale                     204  

21   Purchases          153           $117

31  Sale                     143

On LIFO(Last-in, first-out) basis, these 166 units of ending inventory cost;

= (54*122) + (166-54)*114    <em> (Note:166-54 is to find the balance after the first 54)</em>

= $6,588 + $12,768

= $19,356
