re-thinking oil: compensation for non-production in yasuní national park challenging sumak kawsay and degrowth

kondaur [170]

What is Yasuni's plan?

The Yasun-ITT Initiative was an effort to keep more than a billion barrels of oil in the ground beneath the Yasuni National Park, a biosphere reserve in Ecuador's Amazon.

Main Content

The Yasun-ITT Initiative was a novel development proposal based on the prohibition of oil production in Ecuador's Yasun National Park in exchange for international compensation, either in the form of direct payment or payment for environmental services. My goal is to investigate how different actors in Ecuador, an oil-dependent country, perceive this compensation for non-oil production. I critically engage the 'environmental narrative' surrounding the Initiative inspired by sumak kawsay -a philosophy of life based on non-mercantilist values known as "well living" in English or "buen vivir" in Spanish- and degrowth by conducting a chronological review of the Initiative and forty in-depth interviews with key players. In this article, I argue that viewing the Initiative as an environmental issue rather than a problem of oil rent dependency exemplifies the limitations of sumak kawsay and degrowth as alternatives to development. The Yasun results show that the Initiative ended up reproducing nature valuation fictions rather than de-linking nature from the valuation process. Using a critical political economic framework, this paper demonstrates that concepts like "dependency" and "rent" are critical in understanding the challenges of transitioning away from extraction-based development in developing countries. In summary, Yasun was a "lost" opportunity for a bottom-up debate on what to produce and what not by failing to distinguish between payment for non-production of oil and compensation from environmental services.

Stewart Marketing Inc. manufactures two products, A and B. Presently, the company uses a single plant-wide factory overhead rate

Sophie [7]

Answer:

Allocated MOH= $320

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Overhead Direct Labor Product

Hours (dlh) A B

Painting Dept. $248,000 10,000 dlh 16 dlh 4 dlh

Finishing Dept. 72,000 10,000 4 16

Totals $320,000 20,000 dlh 20 dlh 20 dlh

<u>First, we need to calculate the plantwide overhead rate:</u>

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 320,000 / 20,000

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $16 per direct labor hour

<u>Now, we can allocate overhead:</u>

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Allocated MOH= 16*20

Allocated MOH= $320

Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

$1,102,820

Explanation:

The computation of the net present value is shown below:

= Present value of yearly cash inflows - initial investment

where,

Present value of yearly cash inflows is

= Annual year cash inflows × PVIFA factor

= $300,000 × 2.9906

= $897,180

And, the initial investment is

= $1,500,000 + $500,000

= $2,000,000

So the net present value is

= $897,180 - $2,000,000

= $1,102,820
