2 answers:

8 0

A company would likely outsource service or manufacturing to reduce service or production costs; this is why a majority of consumer products are made in east Asian countries, as they have very low manufacturing and labor costs. However, these cheap goods and services tend to have lower quality and/or performance when compared to their domestic, higher-priced counterparts. In short, outsourcing is generally used to cut costs, but the quality of goods or services typically suffers to some degree.

c.$110,254.18

d.$111,666.67

Explanation:

a. The value of investment today if payment per year of $6,700 is made for 15 years is given as follows:

Present value today=R[(1-(1+i)^-n)/i]

Where

R=payment to made yearly=$6,700

i=interest per annum=6%

n=number of payments=15

Present value today=6,700[(1-(1+6%)^-15)/6%]=$65,072.07

b. The value of investment today if payment per year of $6,700 is made for 40 years is given as follows:

Present value today=6,700[(1-(1+6%)^-40)/6%]=$100,810.19

c. The value of investment today if payment per year of $6,700 is made for 75 year is given as follows:

Present value today=6,700[(1-(1+6%)^-75)/6%]=$110,254.18

d. The value of investment today if payment per year of $6,700 occurred forever

Present value today=P/i=6,700/6%=$111,666.67

where P=6,700, i=6%
