Answer:

E. $7,190

Explanation:

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

NPV can be calculated using a financial calculator

For project A,

Cash flow in year 0 = $-14,500

Cash flow in year 1 = $9,500

Cash flow in year 2 = $9,500

Cash flow in year 3 = $9,500

I = 15%

NPV = $7190.64

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

I hope my answer helps you

joja [24]

Desire-based advertising is used to drive people to purchase items based on a desire for it.  An example for desire-based advertising is to draw people in to a store based on a sale of an item that they desire. A fear-based advertisment can be for insurance. They advertise against the "what ifs" and "what could happen" if you do not hold car insurance and end up needing it.

You have $12,500 you want to invest for the next 30 years. You are offered an investment plan that will pay you 7 percent per ye
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

Balance after 30 years = $151,018.50

Explanation:

In order to calculate this, we will calculate the future value on an amount invested, gaining interest over the years of investment, and this is given by:

FV = PV (1 + r)^{t}

where:

FV = future value

PV = present value

r = interest rate

t = time in years.

Hence the future value is calculated as follows:

1. For the first 10 years at 7% interest:

7% interest = 7/100 = 0.07

FV = 12,500 (1 + 0.07)^{10}

FV = 12,500 (1.07)^{10}\\FV = 12,500 * 1.967 = 24,589.392

2. For the last 20 years at 9.5%(0.095) interest:

Note that for the remaining 20 years, the present value (PV) used = 24,589.392, as ending balance after the first 10 years

FV = 24,589.392 (1 + 0.095)^{20}

FV = 24,589.392 (1.095)^{20}\\FV= 24,589.392 * 6.1416\\FV = 151,018.496

Total Future value earned = $151,018.50
