1. A new furnace for your small factory will cost $27,000 to install and will require ongoing maintenance expenditures of $1,500

Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

payback 3.29 years

NPV 87,158.55

Explanation:

PO 27,000

Cash flow saving Y1

2400 x 3.5 = 8,400

expenditures (1,500)

net savings 6,900

Cash flow saving Y2

The price will increase 0.5

6,900 + 2,400 x 0.5 = 8,100

Cash flow saving Y3 to Y20

The price will increase 0.5

8,100 + 2,400 x 0.5 = 9,300

We have an annuity of 18 years for 9,300 cash

And then we have a cash flow of 6,900

and another of 8,100

$C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\$

C = 9,300

r = 8%

time = 18

$9,300 \times \frac{1-(1+0.08)^{-18} }{0.08} = PV\\$

PV = 87,158.55

Now this values are years into the future, so we need to bring them to present day.

$\frac{Principal}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV$

year 1 principal 6,900

6,900/1.08 = 6,388.89

year 2 principal 8,100

$\frac{8,100}{(1 + 0.08)^{2} } = PV$

PV= 5,915.64

year 3 annuity 87,158.55

$\frac{87,158.55}{(1 + 0.08)^{3} } = PV$

PV= 69,189.27

cash flow - investment = net present value

69,189.27 + 5,915.64 + 6,388.89 - 27,000 = 54,493.8

The payback will be the time perdion when the project recovers it initial cost:

we first add the income from the irregular years and subtract from the investment

6,900 + 8,100 = 15,000

27,000 - 15,000 = 12,000

then we use the general formula investment/cash flow per year

12,000/9,300 = 1.29

the project need the first two years and then 1.29 years

2 + 1.29 = 3.29 years

define a stock market bubble, describe what happens after a bubble, and explain how the law of supply and demand creates both bu

Stells [14]

Answer

A bubble is a phenomena in investing that occurs when investors increase their demand in assets so much that they cause the price to move to a value beyond accurate reflection of its actual worthiness. When a bubble happens, the prices of stock will fall rapidly.When there is increase in the share price of stock rapidly caused by individual-perpetuating, the share value can rise beyond asset value making investor to withdraw their money faster because supply will exceed demand and cause share price to fall.

An increase demand on assets by investors will make the price to increase beyond rational economic value. The real worth of the stock will now be determined by firm’s performance. Investing in bubble can appear to last forever, but because they are formed by self-perpetuated reasons, they eventually fall and the money that was invested into them is lost. In such cases, investors would run to withdraw their money and avoid the loss of fall in share prices.
