Answer:

We will consider positive interest rate which is i=0.21 or i=21%

Explanation:

The formula for Future value is:

$FV=PV(1+i)^n$

The present value will become:

$PV=FV(1+i)^{-n}$

where:

n is the number of years

Since the condition is same present value,so the given data form the equation:

$6000+5940(1+i)^{-1}=12000(1+i)^{-1/2}$

Divide above equation by $(1+i)^{-1}$

$6000(1+i)+5940=12000(1+i)^{1/2}$

Let $z=(1+i)^{1/2}\\$ . Above equation will become:

$6000z^2+5940=12000z$

Rearranging above equation:

$5940-12000z+6000z^2=0$

Solving the quadratic equation:

z=1.1, z=0.9

Let $z=(1+i)^{1/2}\\$ will become:

$z=(1+i)^{1/2}\\\\z^2=1+i$

$i=z^2-1$

For z=1.1

$i=(1.1)^2-1\\i=0.21$

For z=0.9

$i=(0.9)^2-1\\i=-0.19$

we will consider positive interest rate which is i=0.21 or i=21%

Degger [83]

Answer:

Cumulative net present value of the project is:

= $33.5 million.

The discounted cash flow rate of return is:

= 26%

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

The capital cost of the combined heat and power system = $23 million

Expected net savings per year = $10 million

Project period = 10 years

Discount rate = 12%

Annuity PV factor for 10 years at 12% = 5.650

Total PV of the cash flows = $56.5 million (5.650 * $10 million)

NPV of the project = $33.5 million

Annualized NPV = $33.5 million/5.650

= $5,929,204

Discounted cash flow rate of return = Annualized NPV/Investment * 100

= $5,929,204/$23,000,000 * 100 = 26%

Sindrei [870]

Answer:

The EOQ is 353 units

Explanation:

The economic order quantity or EOQ is the quantoty that minimized the holding and ordering cost for invetory.

The formula for EOQ is,

EOQ = √(2*D*O) / H

Where,

D is the annual demand in units
O is the ordering cost per order
H is the holding cost per unit per annum

The annual demand of oil filters by Sam is,

Annual demand = 52 * 150 = 7800 filters

The EOQ for Sam Auto Shop is,

EOQ = √(2*7800*16) / 2

EOQ = 353.27 Units rounded off to 353 units
