Answer:
a. 5 years
b. Yes they will because the payback period is 5 years.
Explanation:
a. Payback period
First calculate the annual cash inflow:
= Net income + Depreciation
= 66,500 + 28,500
= $95,000
The investment cost was $475,000
Payback period = Investment cost / Annual cash inflow
= 475,000 / 95,000
= 5 years
b. The company will purchase the games because they have a payback period of 5 years.
Answer:
The beta of the new project is 1.475
Explanation:
The beta is the measure of systematic or market risk associated to a stock. The beta is used in the calculation of the required/expected rate of return under the CAPM model. The CAPM model uses the following formula to calculate the required/expected rate of return,
r = rRF + Beta * (rM - rRF)
Plugging in the available variables, we can calculate the value of the beta.
0.154 = 0.036 + Beta * (0.116 - 0.036)
0.154 - 0.036 = Beta * 0.08
0.118 / 0.08 = Beta
Beta = 1.475
Answer:
- 1. <em>For the amount to double</em>: <u>9.37 years</u>
- 2. <em>For the amount to triple</em>: <u>14.85 years</u>
Explanation:
The equation for continuosly compounded interest is:
Where:
- P is the amount that you invest today: $1,300
- F is the value after t years: the double or triple of $1,300
- r is the annual interest rate: 0.074
<u>1. For the amount to double:</u>
Substitute the values and solve for t:
<u>2. For the amount to triple:</u>
<u />
well if im right it should be 20$.
