ear forever. The 1st payment is due in 1 year. The bank will borrow or lend money to Sam at a constant effective rate of i per year. Today, Sam calculated the present value of the payments that are due to him as X. Sam can receive his first 16 payments at the end of year 16 in a lump sum. If he does that, then the total value of the lump sum and future payments at the end of the sixteenth year is X + 2,000. Calculate X.

Answer:

X=97.24

Explanation:

PV = Present Value = X+2000 by the 16th years

PMT = Payments = $100

FV = Future Value = 2000 at the end of 16 years

n= number of years

Applying the equation of future value for annuity

FV = pmt* ​((1+r)ⁿ - 1   )/r

Inputting the values;

2000=100*((1+r)¹⁶-1)/r

Solving for r, gives r = 2.9%

Therefore using the formula for PV for annuity;

PV=PMT*(1-(1/1+r)/r)

X=100*(1-(1/1.029)/0.029

X=100*((1-0.9718)/0.029)

X=100*(0.0282/0.029)

X=97.24

Gentleman Gym just paid its annual dividend of $3 per share, and it is widely expected that the dividend will increase by 5% per
Anarel [89]

Answer: a. $31.5 ; b. $45.

Explanation:

A. What price should the stock sell at? The discount rate is 15%.

The dividend for the first year will be:

= $3 × (100% + 5%)

= $3 × 105%

= $3 × 1.05

= $3.15

Since Price = D1/Ke - g

Price = 3.15/0.15 - 0.05

Price = 3.15/0.10

Price = $31.5

B. How would your answer change if the discount rate was only 12%?

Price = D1/Ke - g

Price = 3.15/(0.12 - 0.05)

= 3.15/0.07

= $45

The answer changed because the discount rate has been reduced which led to the increase in the answer.

vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

a. $8 million

Explanation:

In the given situation, the $8 million is the best price to finalize your decision as $20 million costs is that cost which is paid last year and these costs are called sunk cost which is not recovered in the future, that means it is already incurred in the past.  

Moreover, the sunk cost is not a part of the future decision as this cost is irrelevant now

So, $8 million is a relevant cost to make a better decision

A customer’s specification for weight of an antiseptic cream sold in plastic tubes is 4.00 ounces ± 0.02 ounces. The target p
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

Cp = 1.667

Cpk = 1.25

The filling process will deliver the customer's specifications since Cp > 1 and Cpk > 1

Explanation:

Given data:

Customer Specification           3.98          4.02

Process Average                      4.005

Process Standard Deviation    0.004

<u>Calculate the Cp and Cpk values</u>

Cp = Δ customer specification / ( 6 * std )

     = (4.02 - 3.98 ) / ( 6 * 0.04 )

     = 0.04 / 0.24 = 0.1667 + 1 = 1.667

Cpk ( upper ) = ( 4.02 - process average ) / ( 3* std )

                      = ( 4.02 - 4.005 ) / ( 3 * 0.004 )  = 1.25

Cpk ( lower ) = ( process average - 3.98 ) / ( 3 * std )

                     = ( 4.005 - 3.98 ) / ( 3 * 0.04 ) = 2.083

Cpk = minimum value of Cpk = 1.25
