Answer:

56.67%

Explanation:

Purchase cost = 30 dollars

Margin x price = 0.60x30 = $18

30-18 = $12

Profit = $47 - $30 - 0.07(12)

= 16.16

Percentage earned = (16.16 /18) * 100

= 89.78%

Profit from the trade

= 47-30

= 17

Percentage earned = 17/30 * 100

= 56.67%

The return would have been 56 67% if the investor had not done this.

Taxes a distort incentives and this distortion causes markets to allocate resources inefficiently. b do not distort incentives,
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

Letter a is correct. Distort incentives and this distortion causes markets to allocate resources inefficiently.

Explanation:

What happens is that when rates rise, it causes an imbalance in supply and demand, because at higher rates companies are forced to raise prices to offset tax costs, so the pass-through of consumer prices discourages consumption and as a consequence of less consumption, production also decreases, causing the inefficient allocation of market resources.
