3nrp & erp (6 points)the world price of a liter of vodka is $7.00. while the distillation is done domestically, some of the grainsand materials for the bottle are imported. the value of imported components is $2.00. assume that thereis no tariff on imported components used to make vodka. a) (1 points) what is the nrp for vodka if there is a tariff of $3.00? b) (1 points) what is the erp for vodka if there is a tariff of $3.00? c) (2 points) now assume that there is a tariff of $1.50 on the inputs used to make vodka. what wouldyou expect to be larger, the nrp or the erp? why? d) (2 points) calculate the new nrp and new erp.

Shrieves casting company is considering adding a new line to its product mix, and the capital budgeting analysis is being conducted by sidney johnson, a recently graduated mba. the production line would be set up in unused space in the main plant. the machinery’s invoice price would be approximately $200,000, another $10,000 in shipping charges would be required, and it would cost an additional $30,000 to install the equipment. the machinery has an economic life of 4 years, and shrieves has obtained a special tax ruling that places the equipment in the macrs 3-year class. the machinery is expected to have a salvage value of $25,000 after 4 years of use. the new line would generate incremental sales of 1,250 units per year for 4 years at an incremental cost of $100 per unit in the first year, excluding depreciation. each unit can be sold for $200 in the first year. the sales price and cost are both expected to increase by 3% per year due to inflation. further, to handle the new line, the firm’s net working capital would have to increase by an amount equal to 12% of sales revenues. the firm’s tax rate is 40%, and its overall weighted average cost of capital, which is the risk-adjusted cost of capital for an average project (r), is 10%. define “incremental cash flow.” (1) should you subtract interest expense or dividends when calculating project cash flow?

As a result of a labeling mistake at the chemical factory, a farmer accidentally sprays weedkiller rather than fertilizer on half her land. as a result, she loses half of her productive farmland. if the property of diminishing returns applies to all factors of production, she should expect to seea. a decrease in the marginal productivity of her remaining land and an increase in the marginal productivity of her labor. b. an increase in the marginal productivity of her remaining land and an increase in the marginal productivity of her labor. c. an increase in the marginal productivity of her remaining land and a decrease in the marginal productivity of her labor. d. a decrease in the marginal productivity of her remaining land and a decrease in the marginal productivity of her labor.
