Answer: They raise the cost of pollution to discourage it.

Explanation:

Under the market oriented approach the forces of demand and supply determine the optimum quantity of a good and the price at which the good must be traded. The price gives us information on the relative scarcity of the good. When pollution is free, businesses will produce a large amount of it. However, when market oriented approach is used, the demand for pollution coming from the society as a whole interacts with the supply of pollution created by the various business and consumption activities. The intersection of this determines the price for pollution and the optimum quantity of pollution. Thus, pollution is not free anymore, it has a cost which is the price of pollution. Thus, the market oriented approach increases the cost of pollution to reduce the level of pollution.

Natalija [7]

Answer:

Equity is 0.29

Debt is 0.64

Preferred stock 0.07

Explanation:

WACC=Ke*E/V+Kd*D/V*(1-t)*Kp*P/V

However, the requirements of the question is weights of the bonds,equity and preferred stock which are E/V,D/V and P/V respectively

E is the value of equity=2,000,000*$22=$44,000,000

D is the value of debt =100,000*$1000*96%=$96,000,000

P is the value of prefered stock=1,000,000*$10.50=$10,500,000

Total firm's finance(V) $150,500,000

E/V=$44,000,0000/$150,500,000=0.29

D/V=$96,000,0000/$150,500,000=0.64

p/v=$10,500,000/$150,500,000=0.07

Your son is born today and you want to make him a millionaire by the time he is 50 years old. You deposit $50,000 in an investme

mel-nik [20]

Answer:

$1000000= 50000 (1+ \frac{i}{1})^{1*50}$

$20 = (1+i)^{50}$

$20^{1/50} = 1+i$

$i = 20^{1/50} -1 = 0.0617$

And if we convert this into % we got $i = APR = 6.17 \%$

See explanation below.

Explanation:

We assume that we have compounding interest.

For this case we can use the future value formula given by:

$FV= PV (1+\frac{i}{n})^{nt}$

Where:

FV represent the future value desired = 1000000

PV= represent the present value = 50000

i = the interest rate that we desire to find in fraction

n = number of times that the interest rate is compounding in 1 year, since the rate is annual then n=1

t = represent the number of years= 50 years

So then we have everything in order to replace and we got:

$1000000= 50000 (1+ \frac{i}{1})^{1*50}$

Now we can solve for the interest rate i like this:

$20 = (1+i)^{50}$

$20^{1/50} = 1+i$

$i = 20^{1/50} -1 = 0.0617$

And if we convert this into % we got $i = APR = 6.17 \%$
