A firm wants to finance an investment that would produce an annual EBIT of $415,000 by issuing 850 ten-year zero-coupon bonds (each with $1,000 face value) that will be charged a market interest rate of 8%. Suppose the bonds will be issued on January 1, 2020 and will mature on December 31, 2029.

Assume EBIT is constant over time at $415,000 and the tax rate is 35%. Shown below are income statement templates for the years 2020 and 2029. You do not have to fill these in for credit on the exam, however, feel free to use them as guides for determining how the choice of financing will affect the firm's tax liability for these years. Specifically, determine

a) How much the firm saves in taxes in 2020 and how much the firm saves in taxes in 2029 by having this 10-year bond on its books (relative to the case without any borrowing)? (Don't worry about discounting these tax savings back to the present, just consider the nominal dollar amounts.)

b) How much the firm saves in taxes in 2020 and 2029 in present value terms by having this 10-year bond on its books (again, relative to the case without any borrowing). Assume that January 1, 2020 is the "present," the discount rate is 8%, and the taxes would be paid on December 31 of the statement year.

Income statement for 2020 (Jan 1 - Dec 31, 2020)

Income statement for 2029 (Jan 1 - Dec 31, 2029)

6. In a small open economy, desired national saving, S ^d = $10 billion + ($100 billion)r^w ; desired investment, I^d =$15 billion-($100 billion)r^w ; output, Y= $50 billion; government purchases, G = $10billion; world real interest rate, r^w =0.03

a. Find the economy’s national saving, investment, current account surplus, net exports, desire consumption, and adsorption.

b. Owing to a technological innovation that increases future productivity, the country’s desired investment rises by $2 billon at each level of the world real interest rate. Repeat part (a) with this new information

The well-known Danish toy company Lego Group reported its first loss in 1998 since the 1930s. While its bright plastic bricks are famous around the globe, Lego is rapidly losing its market share to the computer and video games. The company’s President said, “The Lego Group is not in critical condition, but action is needed. We need to acknowledge that growth and innovation are not enough. We also have to be a profitable business.” Discuss the meaning of profitability with respect to President’s announcement. What other goal(s) must a business achieve? Why is the goal of profitability important to Lego’s President? How is accounting profitability measured?

Hi, so basically I had a tutorial today about the social media industry is highly monopolistic with Facebook, users provide Facebook (and 3rd-party companies) with huge amounts of data in exchange for access to the platform. provides Facebook’s algorithms with a clear picture of your preferences or demand for certain goods/services. Technological underperformance is a welfare cost associated with monopolies. For companies such as Facebook, innovation would be minimal due to lack of competition. There are many people argue that government should interfere.

From Industry perspective， could you please give some ideas to argue that the market doesn't work badly and the government should not interfere.
