Answer: $‭3,365.98‬

Explanation:

Value of firm with beta of 0.9.

First use CAPM to find the required return:

= Risk free rate + beta * (Market return - risk free rate)

= 3% + 0.9 * (14% - 3%)

= 12.9%

Firm Value = Perpertual cashflow / Required return

= 1,000 / 12.9%

= $7,751.94

Value of firm with beta of 1.8.

Required return = 3% + 1.8 * (14% - 3%)

= 22.8%

Value of firm = 1,000 / 22.8%

= $4,385.96

Difference = 7,751.94 - 4,385.96

= $‭3,365.98‬

<em>You would be paying $‭3,365.98‬ than the firm is worth. </em>

Novay_Z [31]

Answer: a) -A tax cut

-Additional spending on national park facilities

b) Expansionary fiscal policy

Explanation:

Fiscal Policy refers to how the government of a country is using it's spending and taxes to influence Economic conditions on a Macro level.

The keywords for this question are TAXES and SPENDING.

The means that a Discretionary FISCAL policy includes Taxes and Spending.

Now the way to close the Recessionary gap that is opening is to put more money into the Economy. The Government can do this by REDUCING TAXES which will means people have more money to spend and ADDITIONAL SPENDING on NATIONAL PARK FACILITIES as this means that the government is pumping more money into the Economy.

The discretionary fiscal policy needed to bring the economy closer to potential output is an example of an EXPANSIONARY FISCAL POLICY.

This is where the Government aims to put more money into the economy so that growth can be acheived and they do this by lowering taxes and increasing spending either singularly or simultaneously.

Bill currently uses his entire budget to purchase 5 cans of Pepsi and 3 hamburgers per week. The price of Pepsi is $1 per can, t
Tamiku [17]

Answer:

INCREASE the consumption of Pepsi and REDUCE the consumption of Hamburger

Explanation:

Based on the information given we were told that Bill uses his whole budget to purchase the following :

5 cans of Pepsi

3 Hamburgers per week

And the following were the price:

Pepsi costs $1 per can

Hamburger cost $2

Bill marginal utility:

Pepsi 4

Hamburgers 6

Based on the above details this means that Bill could increase his utility by INCREASING Pepsi consumption and REDUCING hamburger consumption reason been that 5 cans of Pepsi costs $1 per can which will gives us income of $5 ($5×1) while 3 Hamburgers per week cost $2 which will give us income of $6 ($3×2) which typically means that the Hamburgers has more income that Pepsi.

Secondly since the marginal utility for Pepsi is 4 while that of Hamburgers is 6 which means that Hamburgers has higher MARGINAL UTILITY than that of Pepsi because the consumption of Hamburgers is higher than the consumption of Pepsi.

Therefore the best thing that Bill could do in order to increase his Pepsi utility is for Bill to increase Pepsi consumption and reduce hamburger consumption.
