Answer:

The value of the investment at the time of his first deposit is $1,000.

At the end of the first year, the investment will be worth $1,070.

Explanation:

The value of a deposit investment is determined by the interest rate and time.  Time affects the value of an investment by this small-scale businessman in many ways.  The passage of time increases the value of his investment.  However, the total increase may not be due to the interest rate, but inflation also affects asset's value.  For this businessman to make a gain in the investment, the interest rate must be higher than the inflation rate.  Otherwise, the investment loses money due to the effects of inflation, which reduces the real value of an asset over time.

describe how a company would balance the tradeoff between cost and speed when selecting a shipping method
Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer: The opportunity cost is the most desirable trade-off.

Explanation: Trade-offs refer to the choosing decisions that an individual faces when choosing between two-goods or making any other economic decision. For instance, a graduate may face a trade-off between choosing a job or starting up his own business.

While, opportunity cost is simply the cost of the lost alternative. For example, if the graduate chooses to start a business then his opportunity cost is the salary foregone from going for a job.

Thus, when deciding on which option to choose (trade-off) we always look at the option which has a lower opportunity cost.  So we can say that they are the most desirable trade-off.

The following investment opportunities are available to an investment center manager: Project Initial Investment Annual Earnings
solong [7]

Answer:

Instructions are listed below

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Projects:

A

Io= -$ 800,000

Perpetual cash= $ 90,000

B

Io= 100,000

Perpetual cash flow= 20,000

C

Io= 300,000

Perpetual CF= 25,000

D

Io= 400,000

Perpetual CF= 60,000

To find the present value of a perpetual annuity we need to use the following information:

PV= cash flow/i

A) i= 0.16

A= -800000 + (90000/0.16)= -237,500

B= -100000 + (20000/0.16)= 25,000

C= -300000 + (25000/0.16)= -143,750

D= -400000 + (60000/0.16)= -25000

Only project B is pursuable.

B) i=10%

A= 100,000

B= 100,000

C= -50,000

D= 200,000

Only project C is not pursuable. Project D has the greatest net present value.

C) With i=16% only project B should be pursued. With i=10%, project D is the best.

Fudgin [204]

Answer:

The ADR is $100

Explanation:

The average daily rate (ADR) for a hotel is calculated by taking the average revenue earned from rooms and dividing it by the number of rooms sold.

In the scenario presented above, the lodge has one hundred rooms, but sold only ninety rooms, making $9,000. Therefore, we calculate the ADR as follows:

=> $9,000/90

=> $100.

Therefore the average daily rate is $100, meaning that, on average $100 was made per room that was sold.
