Using a 14% cost of capital, calculate the net present value for each of the independent projects shown in the following table,

and indicate whether each is acceptable. Initial investment: Pr. A -20,000, Pr. B -600,000, Pr. C -150,000, Pr. D -760,000, Pr. E -100,000 Cash inflows: Project A Years 1-10 3,000 each yr. Project B 120,000, 145,000, 170,000, 190,000, 220,000, 240,000 Project C 18,000, 17,000 ,16,000 , 15,000, 14,000, 13,000, 12,000, 11,000, 10,000.

Answer:

For project A ,

NPV = $-4,351.65

The project A isn't acceptable because the NPV is negative

For project B ,

NPV = $67,678.24

The project is acceptable because the NPV is postive

For project C,

NPV = $-76,528.17

The project C isnt acceptable because the NPV is negative

For project D,

NPV = $98,189.82

Project D is acceptable because the NPV is postive.

For project E ,

NPV = $8,548.44

Project E is acceptable because the NPV is postive.

Explanation:

Net present value is the present value of after tax cash flows from an investment less the amount invested.

Net present value can be calculated using a financial calculator

For project A,

Cash flow in year 0 =  -20,000

Cash flow each year from year 1-10 = 3,000

I = 14%

NPV = $-4,351.65

The project A shouldn't be embarked on because the NPV is negative

For Project B,

Cash flow in year 0 = $ -600,000

Cash flow in year 1 = 120,000

Cash flow in year 2 = 145,000

Cash flow in year 3 = 170,000

Cash flow in year 4 = 190,000

Cash flow in year 5 =220,000

Cash flow in year 6= 240,000 

I = 14%

NPV = $67,678.24

The project should be embarked on because the NPV is postive.

For Pr. C ,

Cash flow in year 0 = -150,000, 

Cash flow in year 1 = 18,000

Cash flow in year 2 = 17,000

Cash flow in year 3 = 16,000

Cash flow in year 4 = 15,000

Cash flow in year 5 = 14,000,

Cash flow in year 6 = 13,000

Cash flow in year 7 = 12,000

Cash flow in year 8 = 11,000

Cash flow in year 9= 10,000

I = 14%

NPV = $-76,528.17

The project C shouldn't be embarked on because the NPV is negative

For Pr. D,

Cash flow in year 0 = -760,000

Cash flow each year from year 1 to 8 = 185,000 

I = 14%

NPV = $98,189.82

Project D should be embarked on because the NPV is postive.

For Pr. E,

Cash flow in year 0 = -100,000

Cash flow each year for year 1 to 3 = 0 cash flow in year 4 = 25,000

Cash flow in year 5 = 36,000

Cssh flpw in year 6 = 0

Cash flow in year 7 = 60,000

Cash flow in year 8 = 72,000

Cash flow in year 9 = 84,000.

I = 14%

NPV = $8,548.44

Project E is profitable and can be undertaken.

To find the NPV using a financial calacutor:

1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

2. After inputting all the cash flows, press the NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

3. Press compute

elena55 [62]

Answer:

Promissory agreement and Deed of trust.

Explanation:

In this scenario, Seller Dayne was made aware by the trustee that the lender was wanting to proceed with foreclosure on his property. The type of financial agreement that Seller Dayne have with this lender is a Promissory agreement and Deed of trust.

A promissory agreement can be defined as an evidence of a debt and as such involves the use of a legal financial tool such as a promissory note as a written promise to declare that a party (borrower) would pay another (lender) at a specific period of time.

On the other hand, a deed of trust can be defined as a legal document used by a party (borrower) to pledge his or her property to another party (lender) as guarantee or collateral for the repayment of a loan. The deed of trust is typically made up of three (3) parties; the lender, borrower and a trustee.

Additionally, a foreclosure on a property refers to a legal procedure whereby the property being pledged by a borrower for a debt is sold to pay off the debt as a result of defaulting in payments or terms with respect to a loan.

My name is Ann [436]

Answer: 2. biased; the question encourages a certain response.
