Answer: Option (D) is correct.

Explanation:

Correct option: A nation cannot have a comparative advantage in the production of every good.

A country has a comparative advantage in producing a commodity if the opportunity cost of producing that commodity in terms of other commodity is lower than the other country.

While calculating the opportunity cost of producing a commodity, country takes into account both the commodities. Hence, it was not possible that a country is having comparative advantage in the production of every commodity.

DENIUS [597]

Answer:

23.3%

Explanation:

Expected return refers to the anticipated profit or loss of financial investment. Essentially, it's the value of the return that investors anticipate. We can find the expected return by using the formula given below

Δ IR = 5-5% - 2% = 3.5%

Δ IP = 6% - 4% = 2%

Formula

Expected return = Expectedreturn(previous year) + (betaIP x Δ IP) + (betaIR x Δ IR)

Expected return = 12% + (2.5 x 2%) + (1.8 x 3.5%)

Expected return = 23.3%

Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

The cost recorded for the equipment=$229,550

Explanation:

The total recorded cost of the automatic equipment has to include the purchase cost and other additional associated costs that come with the equipment. This can be expressed as;

T=P+A

where;

T=total cost

P=purchase cost/invoice cost

A=additional costs(electrical work cost+delivery cost+sales tax+repair cost)

In our case;

T=unknown

P=$190,000

A=(20,000+4,000+13,700+1,850)=$39,550

replacing;

T=190,000+39,550=229,550

The total cost=$229,550

The cost recorded for the equipment=$229,550

Answer:

Windhoek Mines, Ltd.

The net present value of the proposed mining project is:

= ($232,950).

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Cost of new equipment and timbers = $500,000

Working capital required = $100,000

Annual net cash receipts = $120,000

Cost to construct new roads in three years = $40,000

Salvage value of equipment in four years = $65,000

Estimated useful life of mine = 4 years

Working capital released in four years = $100,000

Required rate of return = 20%

Cash Flows PV factor Present Value

Cost of new equipment and timbers $500,000 1 -$500,000

Working capital required 100,000 1 -100,000

Annual net cash receipts 120,000 2.589 310,680

Cost to construct new roads in 3 years 40,000 0.579 -23,160

Salvage value of equipment in 4 years 65,000 0.482 31,330

Working capital released in 4 years 100,000 0.482 48,200

Net present value ($232,950)
