Answer:

Project C

Explanation:

If we make the decision based on the net present value (NPV) then we will choose the project that has the greatest NPV.

NPV is the sum of the present value of project´s cash flows. To have the present value of a cash flow (inflows and outflows) we use a discount rate and the year of the cash flow (the formula is attached).  

When we have al cash flows in present value, we sum them including the investment (which is most of the time negative and it is in present value so we don´t have to transform it). This is the NPV (formula attached).

If the NPV is greater than cero, then the project is creating value, the investors will recover the investment and will have profits. So if the NPV of project is greater than the NPV of another, that project is creating more value.

tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

In this specific scenario, the best thing for the agent to do would be to bring the information to the attention of the firm's supervisory principal named to handle such matters in a Supervisory Procedures Manual. That is because inside information or insider trading is illegal and even though it does not need to be reported to the state securities Administrator, it should still be handled by the firm's supervisory principal in order for it to be handled correctly so that the firm does not get into trouble.

Kamila [148]

Answer:

<em>Equivalent unit for conversion cost= 31,280 units</em>

Explanation:

<em>Under the weighted average method of valuation, to account for completed units, it is assumed that the entire degree of work required is done in the period under consideration. So there is no separation of the completed units into opening inventory and fully worked. </em>

<em>Equivalent units are notional whole units which represent incomplete work and are used to apportion cost between work progress and completed work</em>

Equivalent unit = Degree of completion × number of units

<em>Equivalent unit for conversion cost</em>

Item                                    units                                       Equivalent unit

transferred                       29,000        100%× 29,000    =          29,000

Closing inventory                3,000          76%×  3,000   =           <u> 2280 </u>

Total equivalent unit                                                                    <u>31,280</u>

<em>Equivalent unit for conversion cost= 31,280 units</em>
