= 10.80%.

A.2. Capital Asset pricing model return for portfolio of Beta of 1.5

=(.06+(-12-.06)1.5)

lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

A. NPV for A= $61,658.06

NPV  for B = $25,006.15

B.  1.36

1.17

Project A

Explanation:

Net present value is the present value of after tax cash flows from an investment less the amount invested.

NPV can be calcuated using a financial calculator

for project A :

Cash flow in

Year 0 = $(172,325)

Year 1 41,000

Year 2 47,000

Year 3 85,295

Year 4 86,400

Year 5 56,000

I = 10%

NPV = $61,658.06

for project B

year 0 = $ (145,960)

Cash flow in

Year 1  27,000

Year 2  52,000

Year 3 50,000  

Year 4 71,000

Year 5  28,000

I = 10%

NPV = $25,006.15

profitability index = 1 + NPV / Initial investment

for project A, PI = $61,658.06 / 172,325 = 1.36

For project B, PI = $25,006.15 / 145,960 = 1.17

The project with the greater NPV and PI should be chosen. this is project A.

To find the NPV using a financial calculator:

1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

2. after inputting all the cash flows, press the NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.  

3. Press compute

Suppose the local market for legal services has an upward sloping supply curve, PL = 150 +0.0001QL where PL is the price of lega
Margaret [11]

Answer:

C) $50,000,000

Explanation:

The aggregate rent is the surplus earned by the lawyers for operating over their cost at this market equilibrium.

In the picture attached, the rent is showed graphically.

At PL=$250 per hour, the amount of demanded hours is QL=1,000,000.

The oportunity cost at a zero hours level is PL(0)=$150.

The rent can be calculated as:

Rent=\frac{QL_{equil} x (PL_{equil}-PL_0)}{2}\\\\\\Rent=\frac{1,000,000*(250-150)}{2}= \frac{1,000,000*(100)}{2}=50,000,000

The aggregate rent is $50,000,000.

nata0808 [166]

Answer: Hoover's days in inventory in 2011 was 50 days.

Explanation:

Given that,

Beginning inventory = $110000

Ending inventory = $70000

Cost of goods sold = $660000

Sales = $900000

Average Inventory = \frac{Beginning\ Inventory + Ending\ Inventory}{2}

=  \frac{110000+70000}{2}

= 90000

Inventory Turnover =  \frac{cost\ of\ goods\ sold}{Average\ Inventory}

=  \frac{660000}{90000}

= 7.33

Hoover's days in inventory in 2011 = \frac{Number\ of\ days\ in\ a\ year}{Inventory\ Turnover}

= \frac{365}{7.33}

= 50 Days
