notka56 [123]

Answer:

the investment with large cash flow early

Explanation:

This can be illustrated with an example.

There are 2 investments A and B

The cash flows of A =

Cash flow in year 1 = $50,000

Cash flow in year 2 = 0

Cash flow in year 3 = 0

The cash flows of B =

Cash flow in year 1 = 0

Cash flow in year 2 = 0

Cash flow in year 3 = 50,000

Discount rate for both investment is 40%

Present value of A = $35,714.29

Pesent value for B = $18,221.57

It can be seen that the investment with the higher cash flow early has a higher present value

"The spot price of the market index is $900. A 3-month forward contract on this index is priced at $930. What is the profit or l
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

$10 profit

Explanation:

In this question, we are asked to calculate the profit or loss to a short position.

Firstly, we identify that the spot price of market index is $900.

Now, a three months forward contract equals a value of $930.

Raising the index to $920 at the expiry date is obviously a profit to the short position.

To calculate the profit here, we simply subtract the index at expiry date from the three months forward contract.

Mathematically, this is equal to $930-$920 = $10 profit

When a firm can _____ its capital equipment over a shorter period, it cuts its taxes _____. appreciate; later appreciate; now de
Andre45 [30]

When a firm can depreciate its capital equipment over a shorter period, it cuts its taxes now.

A capital asset's value dropping is referred to as capital depreciation. To determine the recovery cost incurred on fixed assets over the course of their useful lives, assets are depreciated. When the asset reaches the end of its useful life or you need to sell it, this is used as a sinking fund to replace it. Depreciation lowers the taxable income, which lowers the tax burden. Capital assets are listed as an asset on the balance sheet and are depreciated over the course of their useful lives. Businesses typically have to spread out the costs of capital investments over a number of years in accordance with predetermined depreciation schedules.
