Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

a. Pre tax cost of debt is

Given that

NPER = 30 - 7 = 23 × 2= 46

PMT =$1,000 × 6.2% ÷ 2 = $31

FV = $1,000

PV = $1000 × 108% = $1,080

The formula is shown below:

= RATE(NPER,PMT,-PV,FV,TYPE) ×  2

AFter applying the above formula, the rate is 5.58%

b. The after tax cost of debt is

= 5.58% × (1 - 0.35)

= 3.63%

c. The after tax cost of debt would be considered more relevant

Critics of the North American Free Trade Agreement argued that opening our borders to free trade with Mexico would result in U.S
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

The criticism is true to a certain degree, and unjustified to another degree.

Explanation:

It is true in the sense that the U.S. has indeed lost a lot of manufacturing to Mexico, simply because Mexico has far lower labor costs, and U.S. manufacturers have decided to take advantage of that by taking their plants to Mexican states.

It is also true that Mexico has been running a trade surplus with the United States in recent years, mainly because of the large manufacturing sector that Mexico has been developing.

On the other hand, the criticism is unjustified because neither a trade deficit nor the moving of manufacturing to Mexico mean that the United States as a whole is in worst condition than before NAFTA. In fact, most economists agree that free trade is a good thing for the economy as a whole, and that most people benefit from the lower costs and specialization that trade brings about.

The problem lies then, in the people who lose their jobs: formerly unionized manufacturing workers from the Rust Belt, for example. These people need to be helped with government assitance, both in terms of welfare, and training, so that they can find new jobs and make ends meet in the meanwhile.
