The UMD Sustainability Office has said that carbon would need to be priced at around $100 per ton before it would make financial sense for the university to move away from their current power plant. This suggests that: a. UMD's discount rate is very low. b. All of these are true. c.if carbon was priced at $50 per ton, the university would simply pay the $50 per ton cost for carbon emissions generated by the power plant d.UMD is behaving in a dynamically inconsistent way

× Your answer is incorrect. A university's college of engineering would like to determine how much it will cost to keep its computing equipment current. In today's dollars, the college estimates that it will cost $190,000 to replace old computing equipment. Due to decreasing prices on computers, it estimates that this cost will decrease each of the following years by 7%. What would the present worth of computing updates for years 1-5 be, assuming a required 15% real return on its investments? Click here to access the TVM Factor Table calculator. A Carry all interim calculations to 5 decimal places and then round your final answer to a whole number. The tolerance is + $10. 564921.75

20. Consider an industry with three firms. The table below provides information about their current level of pollution emissions and their marginal cost of abatement. Marginal cost of abatement $20 $25 $10 Current pollution emissions 70 units of pollution Firm A 80 50 Now, the government decides it wants to reduce pollution emissions. If the government provides these firms with 40 tradeable pollution permits each, how much would each firm pollute? a. Each firm would emit 40 units of pollution b. A would emit 70 units, B would emit zero units, and C would emit 50 units of pollution C. Awould emit 40 units, B would emit 80 units, andC would emit zero units of pollution d. A would emit 60 units, B would emit 60 units, and C would emit zero units of pollution e. None of the above
6 "In my opinion, we ought to stop making our own drums and accept that outside supplier's offer," said Wim Niewindt, managing director of Antilles Refining, N.V., of Aruba. "At a price of $20 per drum, we would be paying $5.45 less than it costs us to manufacture the drums in our own plant. Since we use 80,000 drums a year, that would be an annual cost savings of $436,000." Antilles Refining's current cost to manufacture one drum is given below (based on 80,000 drums per year): Direct materials Direct labor variable overhead Fixed overhead ($2.90 general company overhead, $1.80 depreciation, and $0.75 supervision) Total cost per drum A decision about whether to make or buy the drums is especially important at this time because the equipment being used to make the drums is completely worn out and must be replaced. The choices facing the company are: Alternative 1: Rent new equipment and continue to make the drums. The equipment would be rented for $180,000 per year. Alternative 2:…

Nowadays it is very important to reduce one's carbon "footprint" (how much carbon we produce in our daily lifestyles). Minimizing the use of fossil fuels and instead resorting to renewable sources of energy (eg. solar energy) are vital to a "sustainable" lifestyle and a lower carbon footprint. Let's consider solar panels that prewarm the water fed to a conventional home water heater. The solar panels have an installed cost of $3,700, and they reduce the homeowner's energy bill by $581 per year. The residual value of the solar panels is $703 at the end of their 12-year life. What is the annual IRR of this investment? Use the trial-and-error method starting with an initial guess of 14%. (a) The annual IRR of this investment is %. (Round to two decimal places.) (b) If the homeowner's MARR is 14%, is the investment economical? A. Yes OB. No
