If a country had a CPI of 91.0 last year and a CPI of 90.0 this year, then

1 answer:

6 0

Answer 1: The Correct answer is C) the average prices of goods and services decreased between last year and this year.

CPI stands for consumer Price Index. Also known as the 'basket' the index is developed by national governments to monitor the prices of basic goods and services used by the population.

This has to include basic items that the majority of population uses every day e.g. milk, chicken, electricity etc.

In this case, the CPI had decreased from 91.0 to 90.0 which means the prices fell.

Answer 2: The correct answer is A) 3.6%

The formula to calculate unemployment rate is:

No. of unemployed ÷ No. of Working People x 100

In this case, it was 9 million divided by 250 million x 100

3.6% unemployment rate is actually very less for an economy and is an indicator that the economy is doing well and creating enough jobs for most people. A high unemployment rate signals a worsening economy.

Winston Clinic is evaluating a project that costs $52, 125 and has expected net cash inflows of $12,000 per year for eight years

kvv77 [185]

Answer:

Payback period (years): 4.23 years

NPV: $6,685

IRR: 16%

MIRR: 14%

The project is financially acceptable because IRR and MIRR is greater than cost of capital

Explanation:

Payback period is calculating the number of year when cash inflow can cover cash outflow (regardless the present value of cash inflow).

As we can easily estimate, cash inflow in 5 year can cover the investment.

Then payback period = 4 years + 12000/52,125 = 4.23 years

We can use excel to calculate NPV, IRR, MIRR in the formula as below

Net present value of project: NPV=(discounting rate, cash outflow, cash inflow) = (12%, -52125,12000,12000......,12000) = $6,685

Internal rate of return: IRR= (cash outflow, cash inflow) = ( -52125,12000,12000,......,12000) = 16%

Modified internal rate of return: MIRR = (cash outflow, cash inflow, IRR, cost of capital) = (-52125,12000,12000......,12000,16%,12%) = 14%
