Answer:

current floating exchange rate

Explanation:

Exchange rate is the rate at which one currency will be exchanged with another. For example, 1 United States Dollar is equivalent to 4.24 Poland Zloty as of March 2020.

There are two common types of exchange rates:

1. Floating exchange rate: This is set by the FOREX market, and is based on the current supply and demand of currencies. When demand for a currency is high, its value increases and vice versa.

2. Fixed exchange rate: A fixed or pegged exchange rate is whereby a government entirely determines the rate and value of the currency.

Generally, a floating exchange rate system is used in the global market. This does not mean countries allow their currencies to fluctuate endlessly. The central bank of a country and it's government does intervene and manipulate the currency to make it favorable for them during international trade but it is done in a more indirect manner as opposed to a fixed exchange rate system.

Answer:

Annual deposit = $4100

Explanation:

Annual deposit = $4100

Number of years for retirement = 30 years

Future value of money = $1000000

Interest rate = 12%

Now use the below formula to find the annuity amount.

Annual deposit = Future value (A/F, r, n)

Annual deposit = 1000000 (A/F, 12%, 30)

Annual deposit = 1000000(0.0041)

Annual deposit = $4100

Journal Entries

Dr. Cash ___________________$104,000

Cr. Common Stock ___________$5,000

Cr. Preferred stock ___________$10,000

Cr. Paid in capital Common Stock $78,200

Cr. Paid in capital Preferred stock $10,800

b.

Dr. Cash ___________________$104,000

Cr. Common Stock ___________$5,000

Cr. Preferred stock ___________$10,000

Cr. Paid in capital Common Stock $84,000

Cr. Paid in capital Preferred stock $5,000

Explanation:

a.

First, we need to calculate the fair value of each type of shares using the following formula

Fair value  = Numbers of shares x Fair value per share

Fair Value of Common Share = 500 shares x $164 per share = $82,000

Fair value of preferred share = 100 shares x $205 per share = $20,500

Total value of shares = $82,000 + $20,500 = $102,500

Now allocate the Value of $104,000 bases on the fair value

Allocation to

Common stock = $104,000 x $82,000 / $102,500 = $83,200

Preferred stock = $104,000 x $20,500 / $102,500 = $20,800

Now calculate the par values

Par Values

Common stock = 500 shares x $10 = $5,000

Preferred stock = 100 shares x $100 = $10,000

Now calculate the additional paid-in capital

Additional paid-in capital

Common stock = $83,200 - $5,000 = $78,200

Preferred stock = $20,800 - $10,000 = $10,800

b,

Value of common stock = $178 per share x 500 shares = $89,000

Additional paid in capital

Common stock = $89,000 - $5,000 = $84,000

Preferred stock = $104,000 - $89,000 - $10,000 = $10,000

Lerok [7]

Answer: necessity entrepreneur

Explanation: While an entrepreneur is described as someone who organizes and operates a business venture and assumes much of the associated risks, necessity entrepreneurs only do so out of necessity (the quality or state of being necessary, unavoidable, or absolute requisite). As such, they are individuals ranging from educated persons to street sellers especially in developing countries who create small businesses or enterprises out of the need to survive. In Michael Peters' case, he lost his job due to downsizing which caused him to apply his skills and talents to starting up a business.

liberstina [14]

Answer:

(a) Cash payback period:

     Project Red = 5.5 years

     Project blue  = 4.6 years

(b) Net present value for project Red = $19,760

     Net present value for project Blue =$164,580

(c) Annual rate of return:

Project Red =11.36%

Project Blue  =18.75%

(d) Project Blue

Explanation:

Given Data;  

Project Blue Capital investment = $640,000

Project Red Capital investment = $440,000

Project Red  Annual Net income = $ 25,000.

Project Blue Annual Net income = $ 60,000

Annual depreciation Project Red = (440000/8)

                                                       = 55,000

Annual depreciation Project Blue = (640000/8)

                                                       =  80,000

Annual cash inflow project A = $ 80,000

Annual cash inflow project B = $140,000

(a)

Cash payback period = Initial investment/cash flow per period

Project Red = 440000 /80000

                   = 5.5 years

Project blue = 640000/ 140000

                    = 4.6 years

(b)

Project Red  Present value of cash inflows = 80000 ×5.747

                                                                       = $459,760

Project Blue Present value of cash inflows  =140000×5.747

                                                                        = 804580

Net present value for project Red = $459,760 - $440,000

                                                        = $19,760

Net present value for project Blue = 804580 - $640,000  

                                                         =$164,580

(c) Annual rate of return:

Project Red   = $25,000 / ($440000)/2

                       =11.36%

Project Blue =  $60000/(640000/2)

                    =18.75%

(d) Savanna should select Project Blue because it has a higher positive NPV and a higher annual rate of return. AND Project Blue has early cash back period also
