klasskru [66]

Answer:

A. $54

B. 55.62

C. $70.46

Explanation:

The formula for calculating compound interest is

FV = P (1 + r ) ^n

FV = Future value

P = Present value

R = interest rate

N = number of years

A. $1,800 (1.03) = $1854

Interest rate = $1854 -$1,800 = $54

B. $1,800 (1.03)^2 = $1,909.62

Interest rate = $1,909.62 - $1854 = $55.62

C. $1,800 (1.03)^10 = $2,419.05

To service the interest rate, we have to determine the future value in year 9

$1,800 (1.03)^9 = $2,348.59

Interest rate = $2,419.05 - $2,348.59 = $70.46

The Coase theorem states that A) the private sector will fail to produce the efficient amount of a public good because of the fr

Sonja [21]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

One of the problems in economics is the allocation of goods in the presence of externalities. When externalities are present allocation of goods in private market won't be efficient because private parties won't internalize them and would arrive to an inefficient outcome. For many years this was an argument in favor of government intervention.

However, Ronald Coase showed that assigning property rights of the externality to one of the private parties (no matter which one) would result in an efficient outcome. This is because the parties with the property right would then internalize the cost. Then in the bargaining process private parties would reach an efficient outcome without the intervention of the government.

Carolina is trying to sell her car, and the lowest amount she is willing to accept is $2,000. Abdul is interested in buying the

andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

Abdul's surplus= $400

Total surplus=$500

Explanation:

Consumer surplus can be defined as the amount a consumer is willing to pay and the amount he actually paid (which is usually less).

Given:

Carolina willing selling price=$2,000

Abdul willing buying price=$2,500

Abdul negotiated price=$2,100

Abdul is willing to pay $2,500 but he negotiated $2,100

Abdul's surplus= $2,500-$2,100

=$400

Total surplus= Abdul's willing price - carolilina's willing price

Total surplus= $2,500 - $2,000

= $500
