Suppose that baldwin will increase its automation to 6.5 this year. each new unit of automation costs $4 per unit of capacity. an additional $4 per point of automation applies to any new capacity. how much will this investment in automation cost?

The 39 percent and 38 percent tax rates both represent what is called a tax "bubble." suppose the government wanted to lower the upper threshold of the 39 percent marginal tax bracket from $335,000 to $208,000. what would the new 39 percent bubble rate have to be? (do not round intermediate calculations. enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places,e.g., 32.16.)
