Answer: 16 Banana's or 8 Apples

Explanation:

Budget constrain is a mathematical expression which shows us the quantity of goods that can be purchases at given prices and income. Since, income of the consumer is limited, he must allocate his consumption in a way that he can buy maximum goods at the given prices.

The budget constrain faced by the person is

1.50*Q_{A} + 0.75*Q_{B} \leq 12

If the person spends all his income on Apple's, he buys

\frac{12}{1.50}

= 8 Apples

If the person spends all his income on Banana's, he buys

\frac{12}{0.75}

= 16 Banana's

Answer:

The second project should be chosen. Because the present value of the second project is greater than that of the first project.

Explanation:

The project that should be chosen can be determined by comparing the present value of both projects.

Present value is the cash flows from a project discounted at the discount rate.

Present value can be found using a financial calculator;

For project 1,

Cash flow each year from year one to six is  $52,000

Discount rate = 15%

Present value =$196,793.10

For project 2,

Cash flow each year from year one to eight is  $48,000

Discount rate = 15%

Present value =$215,391.43

The second project would be chosen because its present value is greater than that of the first project.
