Answer: Highly doubtful.
Explanation:
U.S. sugar protection policies save producers in the U.S. billions of dollars so those companies continually lobby for the government to keep up the policies.
A company such as Jelly Belly is not influential enough to fight off the various sugar interests unless there are other players like Jelly Belly in the game. The text makes no mention of them however so it must just be Jelly Bean and they do not have the influence to get the government to reverse policy.
Answer:
Option 1 PV lumpsum = $200000
Option2 PV of Annuity = $195413.08035 rounded off to $195413.08
Based on the present value of both the options, Option 1 should be chosen as it has a higher present value than option 2.
Explanation:
To decide on the best option to choose among the given two, we need to find the present value of both the options.
As the first option is to receive a lumpsum payment of $200000 today, the present value of this option is also equal to $200000 as it will be received today.
Option two, on the other hand, is an annuity as fixed payments will be received after equal intervals of time and for a limited time period and at the end of the period which satisfies the criteria of annuity ordinary. We will use the formula for the present value of annuity which is,
PV of Annuity = C * [( 1 - (1+r)^-n) / r]
Where,
- C is the periodic payment
- r is the rate of return of discount rate
- n is the number of periods
The periodic payment is provided as $1400. We are also provided with and APR of 6% which is the Annual rate. We will have to convert it into monthly rate by dividing it by 12. We are also provided with the number of years which we will need to convert into number of months by multiplying it by 12.
Monthly r = 6%/12 = 0.5%
Number of periods = 20 * 12 = 240
PV of Annuity = 1400 * [( 1 - (1+0.5%)^-240) / 0.5%]
PV of Annuity = $195413.08035 rounded off to $195413.08

Cash flow from operating activities <u> $289,800 </u>
The corect answer for the question above is (d.) "Personal." Personal would be the best to place the return address on a business envelope.
Answer: excess demand, underestimate
Explanation:
P= 1200 - 2Q
300= 1200 - 2Q
2Q = 1200 -300
2Q = 900
Q = 900/2
Q = 450
Quantity demanded is 450 units
Quantity supplied Q - P = 300
Excess demand = 450 - 300 = 150
The policy will lead to excess demand of 150 per month.
P= 1200 - 2Q
P= 1200 - 2(300)
= 1200 - 600
= 600
Willing to pay price is $600.
Deadweight loss = 0.5 × (Price buyers are willing to pay - ceiling price) × (market quantity supplied - ceiling quantity supplied)
= 0.5(600-300)(400-300)
= 0.5(300)(100)
= 15000
Deadweight loss is $15000
The welfare loss underestimate the actual loss
