Assume that a state government currently provides no child-care subsidies to working single parents, but it now wants to adopt a

plan that will encourage labor force participation among single parents. Suppose that child-care costs are hourly, and suppose the government adopts a child-care subsidy that pays $3 per hour for each hour the parent works, up to 8 hours per day. Draw a current budget constraint (net of child-care costs) for an assumed single mother and then draw in the new constraint. Discuss the likely effects on labor force participation and hours of work.

Answer:

The line on the graph will be parallel to the pre-subsidy line and the new constraint will then be equal to the points connecting the two lines.

Explanation:

The subsidy by government to single parents is $3 per hour for up to 8 hours. The total of subsidy will be $16 for each day. The labor force who were not receiving the subsidy before had steep indifference curve but now few workers will find utility maximization with flatter indifference curve so the workers will join the subsidy program.

A corporate bond pays 6.25 percent interest. How much would a municipal bond have to pay to be equivalent to this on an after ta
garri49 [273]

Answer:

C) 4.50 percent

Explanation:

It is given that :

Interest a corporate bond pays = 6.25 percent

The marginal percent tax bracket is given as : 28 %

We have to find the amount that the municipality bond shall pay to be the equivalent to the amount after the tax basis :

We known that the municipal bond is tax exempted after the corporate tax bond should be equal to the municipal bond to be indifferent.

Thus, rate of return = rate of return after tax = rate x (1 - tax rate)

                                                                         = 6.25 % x (1 - 0.28)

                                                                         = 4.50 %

Therefore the answer is   = 4.50 %

Suppose your expenses for this term are as follows: tuition: $10,000, room and board: $6,000, books and other educational suppli
Triss [41]
Opportunity cost is the loss due to forgoing one opportunity to select another one alternative.

In this case, the forgone alternative is the full-time employment and other expenses for the term when the alternative chosen is to be in school. In this case, room and board expenses remain the same whether in school or working full time and thus not considered. The part-time amount earned while at school is subtracted as it would be compensated be during full time employment.

Therefore;
Opportunity cost = $20,000+$10,000+$1,000-$8,000 = $23,000
