Answer:

First National Bank's EAR is 11.68%

First United Bank's EAR is 11.62%

Explanation:

Effective annual rate=(1+APR/m)^m-1

APR is the  annual rates given in the question as 11.1% and 11.3%

m is the number of times in the year that compounding is done, for instance, it is 12 for monthly compounding and 2 for semiannual compounding

First National Bank's EAR=(1+11.1%/12)^12-1=11.68%

First United Bank's EAR=(1+11.3%/2)^2-1=11.62%

The EAR for First National Bank is higher

vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

Provided in Explanation

Explanation:

This is a very general question however I’ll try to answer it to the best of my knowledge.

If I use my own assumptions then these will be the Projections:

Selling Price         $79.99  Selling Price         $69.99

Cost of Sales/unit $40.00  Cost of Sales/unit $40.00

Expenses/unit $15.00  Expenses/unit $15.00

   

Demand @ $79.99 1000 Demand @ $69.99 1200

   

Sales         $79,990.00  Sales         $83,988.00

Cost of Sales $40,000.00  Cost of Sales $48,000.00

Expenses $15,000.00  Expenses $18,000.00

Profit        $24,990.00        Profit         $17,988.00

The final decision however relies on the Price Elasticity of the Product. If the Product is Price elastic then lowering the Price will lead to a significant rise in Demand. However if the Product is Price inelastic then lowering the Price will not lead to a significant rise in Demand and thus profit margins will be lowered. If the Product is Price inelastic then it is better to increase prices in order to gain more profits. In the case of Unit Elasticity the change in Demand will be at the same proportion as price change so it won’t be of any use to change the Price.

Elis [28]

Elastic demand means that consumers are sensitive to price and that increased prices can lead to lower sales. There isn't enough information to fully answer this question. We don't know how elastic the demand is. If the demand is only slightly elastic, the increased price and lower demand could still equal higher profits.

A machine would cost $100,000, and would generate revenues of $21,000 per year. However, O&M costs would be $7,000 per year.
fgiga [73]

Answer:

(a) What is the net present value of this potential investment?

Net present value of Investment is $(3,903)

(b) Should you invest in this machine?

We should not invest in this investment because Net present value of this investment is negative by discounting Minimum acceptable rate of return.

Explanation:

Present Values:

Revenue                    $144,146

O&M Cost                  ($48,049)

Initial Investment      <u>$(100,000)</u>

Net Present value     $(3,903)

Working :

Present Value Calculation = P x ( (1- ( 1 + r )^-10) / r

Revenue = $21,000 x ( (1- ( 1 + 0.075 )^-10) / 0.075 = 144,146

O&M Costs = $7,000 x ( (1- ( 1 + 0.075 )^-10) / 0.075 = 48,049
