However, Issuer Two must pay issuing expenses of $40 per bond, and a discount of $20. Both bonds term to maturities are expected to be 10 years. Help Jack to determine the difference in the cost of capital between these two bonds? Assume a tax rate of 40% A 2.34% B 0.02% C 6.34% D 7.37% E 1.31%Suppose that in Australia the price elasticity of steel demand of -1.5 and the price elasticity of steel supply is 1.2. If a tax of $50 per tonne of steel is applied, then: a. The tax burden on consumers will be greater than the tax burden on suppliers. b. The tax burden on suppliers will be greater than the tax burden on consumers. c. The tax burden on consumers will be equal to the tax burden on suppliers. d. The steel price is unlikely to be substantially affected.
- Calculate the percentage of the tax borne by the demander and supplier in each of the following cases:Instructions: Enter your responses rounded to the nearest whole number. Elasticityof demand Elasticityof supply Percent borne by demander Percent borne by supplier a. ED = 0.1 ES = 0.5 % % b. ED = 1.0 ES = 2.0 % % c. ED = 1.3 ES = 0.9 % % d. ED = 1.9 ES = 0.7 % % e. Summarize your findings regarding relative elasticity and tax burden. Consumers bear a greater portion of the tax burden because consumers choose to buy the good. Whichever group (producers or consumers) has the lower elasticity bears the greater portion of the tax burden. Whichever group (producers or consumers) has the higher elasticity bears the greater portion of the tax burden. Producers usually bear a greater portion of the tax burden because the government generally levies more taxes on producers.Only typed answer Green et al. (2005) estimate that the demand elasticity is minus−0.47 and the long-run supply elasticity is 12.0 for almonds. The corresponding elasticities are minus−0.68 and 0.73 for cotton and minus−0.26 and 0.64 for processing tomatoes. If the government were to apply a specific tax to each of these commodities, what incidence would fall on consumers? The incidence of a specific almond tax that would fall on consumers is nothing___percent. (Enter numeric responses using real numbers rounded to one decimal place.)Q2. Suppose the government wants to reduce the consumption of alcohol in the market byintroducing a tax per bottle on the supplier's side. The government does not know what thedemand curve looks but knows that prior to the tax, the equilibrium is at point E1, for all theconsumers in the market. Suppose there are two scenarios of alcohol consumers in the market: i) an extremely inelastic demand curve for additive adult drinkersii) a demand curve that is moderately elastic for young drinkers Please show your answer directly to a well labeled figure and explain what would occur underthese two scenarios after adding the tax on the supplier's side, and on which scenario groupthis tax would best work for the government's objective?

How is this related to the price elasticity of demand foreducation at this university? Explain.c) Focusing on welfare (private and social costs and benefits), give the maineconomic argument(s) as to whether the government should subsidizehigher education or not, and if so by how much. Provide sufficient detail for your argument(s).d) In some countries higher education is provided free of charge to allstudents. Does this make such higher education a public good?
