Answer:

4. reject both Project A and Project B.

their NPV are negative so are not profitable.

Explanation:

We have to calculate the present value of the projects at their return rate

<u>Project A</u>

Present value of the cash flow - investment = net present value

\frac{21,000}{(1.12)^{1} } = PV

\frac{49,000}{(1.12)^{2} } = PV

\frac{12,000}{(1.12)^{3} } = PV

-75,000 + PV 21,000 + PV 49,000 + PV 12,000

-75,000 + 18,750 + 39062.5 + 8,541.36 = -8646.14

<u>Project B</u>

Present value of the cash flow - investment = net present value

-70,000 + PV 15,000 + PV 18,000 + PV 41,000

\frac{15,000}{(1.135)^{1} } = PV

\frac{18,000}{(1.135)^{2} } = PV

\frac{41,000}{(1.135)^{3} } = PV

-70,000 + 13215.86 + 13972.71 + 28041.18 = -14770.25

A partnership has the following capital balances: Comprix (40% of gains and losses) $ 180,000 Heflin (30%) 280,000 Kaplan (30%)
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

$210,000 is the capital balance of Heflin after acquisition by Mahar

Explanation:

In this question we are asked to calculate the capital balance of Heflin given the data in the above question.

Firstly, we identify the capital account of Heflin before the acquisition. From the question, this is equivalent to a value of $280,000

Now, we calculate the proportionate capital transferred. That is same as 25% of the total; 25/100 * 280,000 = $70,000

The ending capital of Heflin after acquisition would be mathematically = Capital account of Heflin before admission - Ending capital of Heflin after admission= $280,000 - $70,000 = $210,000

Courts Distributors needed two hundred compact refrigerators on a rush basis. It contacted Eastinghouse Corporation, a manufactu
Romashka [77]

Answer:

Courts Distributors and Eastinghouse Corporation

Dispute over Contract Price

The two parties have a legal contract.  The contract was established when Courts requested Eastinghouse to send the refrigerators and bill later.

The exact price for the contract is in dispute.  This dispute can be resolved between the parties.  Reference to the market price will help resolve the dispute, otherwise, the parties may seek alternative dispute resolutions, like litigation, mediation, or arbitration.

Explanation:

a) Data and Analysis:

Eastinghouse's invoice price for the refrigerators = $140,000

Courts' adopted market price = $120,000

b) Since Courts' reference to the price is with regard to the wholesale market price, it may be that Eastinghouse quoted the retail price instead.  Since Courts is a distributor, it has the right to be charged a wholesaler's price and not a retailer's.  Therefore, we can conclude that after due reference to the prevailing market price of similar refrigerators, the two parties may agree to a price of $120,000 or a little higher.

tester [92]

The correct answer is C. Helps developing nations escape from poverty

Explanation:

The World Trade Organization (WTO) is one of the most important organizations worldwide that regulate the trade between nations, the WTO includes almost all countries in all continents and aims at facilitating trade and other economic activities. Despite this, the WTO is criticized by many for multiple reasons that include the pollution and environmental degradation due to more trade and manufacture, the irregularities in protections and conditions as some countries skip laws about workplace safety, child labor, etc. and that it supports big multinational corporations rather than small local businesses.

However, one of the reasons critics of the WTO do not mention because it is a positive aspect of the WTO and the liberalized trade is that it actually "helps developing nations escape from poverty" as it provides opportunities for all the members to trade products especially those that are exclusive from each country.
