Answer:
Option "B" is the correct answer to the following statement.
Explanation:
Given:
Exchange rate of 1 Baht= $0.022
Expected inflation in united states (Assume) = 3% = 0.03
Expected inflation in Thailand (Assume) = 10% = 0.10
Computation:
After 1 year rate of 1 Baht in Dollar
The price in US = 1 × (1+0.03) = $1.03
The price in Thailand = 1 × (1+0.10) = 1.10 baht
1 baht = 1.03×0.022÷1.1 = $0.0206
Therefore, 1 baht = $0.21 (approx)
Answer:
False
Explanation:
It does not necessarily means that when a firm gets a normal rate of return, it earns economic profit also, as it depends on various factors:
- In the short run every firm aims to recover its variable cost, and in it's long term duration to recover its total cost, but it does not necessarily conclude that the return will attain the level of earning economic profit.
- Normal rate of return is based on competitive market, as an average rate of return on market, but if the investment is made from borrowed funds, it might be that the company is not able to pay the cost of borrowing in that case it is even after attaining the normal rate of return it will not earn economic profit.
Answer:
Explanation:
St deviation of stock σ = √( β² x σ₁² + σ₂² )
σ₁ = standard deviation of market = .15 and σ₂ is standard deviation of firm
Putting the values given
.30 = √ ( β² x .15² + .10² )
.09 = β² x .0225 + .01
β² x .0225 = .08
β² = 3.5555
β = 1.88
Answer:
$580,000
Explanation:
The computation of the asset is shown below:
= Equipment + supplies + cash + account receivable
= $244,000 + $30,000 + $215,000 + $91,000
= $580,000
We simply added the four items so that the asset value could be determined
Hence, the asset is $580,000
Answer: Alternative 3 will be selected.
Explanation:
The system that should be selected is the alternative that is better than the other alternatives by being higher than MARR if selected.
First compare A1 to A0
The rate of return here is 18% which is higher than the MARR of 15% so Alternative 1 should be chosen over A0 which is to do nothing.
Compare A1 to A2
If A2 is chosen over A1, the incremental return is 10% which is less than the MARR of 15% so A2 should not be chosen over A1. A1 should instead be chosen over A2.
Compare A1 to A3
If A3 is chosen over A1 then the incremental return would be 18%. This is higher than the MARR of 15% so Alternative 3 should be chosen over Alternative 1.
Alternative 3 should be chosen over A1 which should be chosen over A2 and A0.
A3 will therefore be selected.
