jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

The incomplete part of the question is "Using a cap-and-trade system of tradable emission allowances will eliminate half of the sulfur dioxide pollution at a cost of $1 million per year. If the permits are not tradable, what will be the cost of eliminating half of the pollution? If permits cannot be traded, then the cost of the pollution reduction will be $1 million per year." The full question is attched as picture as well

1) Tradable permit system

Then lower MAC firm will abate the all pollution units

Then as MAC1 = $250, MAC2 = $275

Firm 1 = Consolidated electric

Firm 2 = Commonwealth utility

Then 1 will sell all permits to 2, at a price between $250 & $275.

So total cost of abatement of 20 units = MAC1 * 20

= $250 * 20  Unit

= $5,000

2) Non-tradable permits

Total cost = MC1*10 + MC2*10

= $2,500 + $2,750

= $5,250

Western Electronics (WE) is reviewing the following data relating to a new equipment proposal: Net initial investment outlay $ 5
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

The answer is $12,297.

Explanation:

Denote x is the minimum amount of after-tax annual savings (including depreciation effects) needed to make the investment yield a 12% return.

As required in the question, at $X annual after-tax saving, the net present value of the project discounted at the required return 12% will be equal to 0. So, we have:

- Net initial investment + Present value of cash inflow from asset disposal in 5-year + Present value of 5 after-tax annual savings = 0 <=>  -50,000 + 10,000 x 0.567 + X x 3.605 = 0 <=> 3.605X = 44,330 <=> X = $12,297 (rounded to the nearest whole dollar).

Thus, the answer is $12,297.
