Private solutions to correct for externalities Consider the following scenario: Suppose that a chicken farm uses a nearby stream
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

The activities of the chicken firm constitutes a negative externality to the environment

A good has negative externality if the costs to third parties not involved in production is greater than the benefits. an example of an activity that generates negative externality is pollution. Pollution can be generated at little or no cost, so they are usually overproduced. Government can discourage the production of activities that generate negative externality by taxation. Taxation increases the cost of production and therefore discourages overproduction. Tax levied on externality is known as Pigouvian tax.

Government can regulate the amount of externality produced by placing an upper limit on the amount of negative externality permissible

Coase theorem has been proposed as a solution to externality. According to this theory, when there are conflicting property rights, bargaining between parties involved can lead to an efficient outcome only if the bargaining cost is low

Another solution to negative externality is through the activities of charities. Charities can raise donations to limit or regulate the activities of firms that constitutes a negative externality. This is the solution employed here.

Assume that you can receive $500,000, $515,000, and $600,000 over a 3 year period and the present value of those sums at 8% is $
bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

present value = $500,000/1.08 + $515,000/1.08² + $600,000/1.08³ = $1,380,791.80

you calculated the present value correctly, assuming that you receive the annual payments at the end of each year (ordinary annuity).

but if you receive the annual payment at the beginning of the year (annuity due) = $500,000 + $515,000/1.08 + $600,000/1.08² = $1,493,255

it's not exactly the same value, but it is much closer and you could assume that the difference is due to rounding: ($1,493,255 - $1,495,370) / $1,495,370 = -0.1%
