Brokers are the people who invest in worlds largest financial market which is know as the Foreign Exchange or Forex Market.

Brokers deal in buying and selling of different products like currencies, commodities, stocks, etc. They predict the trends for specific currency or commodity and then decides whether to buy it or sell it on the basis of their analysis.

To be fully aware of the trends of the specific product, they analyze the factors or news or financial decisions of the economies that can affect the buying or selling pattern of that product. That is why they have to look at the world's news and financial data of the big giant economies like US, Europe, UK, Japan, etc.

malfutka [58]

Answer:

<u>The target cost per iron= $83.25</u>

Explanation:

Profit Required = Required Investment * required rate of return

= $ 3,500,000*15%

= $ 525,000

Sales= 300000*85=$25,500,000.00

Less: profit required=$525,000.00

Cost= Sales- Profit

Cost=24,975,000.00

Per Unit Target Cost = Total Cost / Total Units

= $ 24,975,000/ 300,000

= $ 83.25

You are considering 3 independent projects, project A, project B, and project C. Given the following cash flow information, calc
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

Project A should be accepted as it has less payback period

Explanation:

In the payback, we analyze in how many years the invested amount is recovered. The computation is shown below:

For Project A

In year 0 = $1,000

In year 1 = $600

In year 2 = $300

In year 3 = $200

In year 4 = $100

In year 5 = $500

If we sum the first 2 year cash inflows than it would be $900

Now we deduct the $900 from the $1,000 , so the amount would be $100 as if we added the third year cash inflow so the total amount exceed to the initial investment. So, we deduct it

And, the next year cash inflow is $200

So, the payback period equal to

= 2 years + $100 ÷ $200

= 2.5 years

For Project B

In year 0 = $10,000

In year 1 = $5,000

In year 2 = $3,000

In year 3 = $3,000

In year 4 = $3,000

In year 5 = $3,000

If we sum the first 2 year cash inflows than it would be $8,000

Now we deduct the $8,000 from the $10,000 , so the amount would be $2,000 as if we added the third year cash inflow so the total amount exceed to the initial investment. So, we deduct it

And, the next year cash inflow is $3,000

So, the payback period equal to

= 2 years + $2,000 ÷ $3,000

= 2.67 years

For Project C

In year 0 = $5,000

In year 1 = $1,000

In year 2 = $1,000

In year 3 = $2,000

In year 4 = $2,000

In year 5 = $2,000

If we sum the first 3 year cash inflows than it would be $4,000

Now we deduct the $4,000 from the $5,000 , so the amount would be $1,000 as if we added the fourth year cash inflow so the total amount exceed to the initial investment. So, we deduct it

And, the next year cash inflow is $2,000

So, the payback period equal to

= 3 years + $1,000 ÷ $2,000

= 3.5 years

So, Project A should be accepted as it has less payback period
