Answer:

a) Net Present Value = $ 304,495.12

b) Beyer should accept the investment.

Explanation:

The net present value NPV) of a project is the present value of cash inflow less the present value of cash outflow of the project.

NPV = PV of cash inflow - PV of cash outflow

Year PV

1 77,000 × 1.12^(-1) = 68,750.00

2 54,000 × 1.12^(-2) = 43,048.47

3 82,000 × 1.12^(-3) = 58,365.98

4 172,000 × 1.12^(-4) = 109,309.11

5 423,000 × 1.12^(-5)= 240,021.56

Total Present Value 519,495.12

Initial cost (215,000)

Gwar [14]

Individuals differ in risk aversion because of differences in income or wealth.

Risk aversion is the propensity of people to choose outcomes with low uncertainty over those with high uncertainty, even when the average outcome of the latter is equal to or higher in monetary worth than the more definite event. This tendency is shown in both economics and finance.
Risk aversion is the tendency to avoid danger. A risk-averse investor is one who prioritizes money preservation over the potential for a higher-than-average return. Price volatility and investment risk are the same.
If someone would rather take the risk and maybe receive nothing than accept a definite payment (certainty equivalent) of less than $50 (for instance, $40), they are considered to be risk averse. If they have no preference between the wager and a specific $50 payoff, they are risk neutral.

Thus the correct answer is d.

Interest rates on 3-year Treasury securities are currently 1.92%, while 10-year Treasury securities yield 5.62%. If the pure exp

FromTheMoon [43]

Answer: 7.24%

Explanation:

From the question, we are told that:

3 years treasury securities have an interest rate = 1.92%

10 years treasury security has an interest rate = 5.62%

Let the 7 year treasury security interest in 3 years be represented by z.

Based on the expectation theory

( 1+1.92%)^3 × (1 + z%)^7 = (1 + 5.62%)^10

(1+0.0192)^3 × (1 + z%)^7 = (1 + 0.0562)^10

(1.0192)^3 (1 + z%)^7 = (1.0562)^10

1.05871(1 + z%)^7 = 1.72767

Divide both side by 1.05871

(1 + z%)^7 = 1.72767/1.05871

(1 + z%)^7= 1.6319

1 + z% = 1.6319^1/7

1 + z% = 1.6319^0.1429

1 + z% = 1.0724

z% = 1.0724 - 1

z% = 0.0724

We then convert the decimal to percentage

z = 7.24%

The market believes that 7-year Treasury securities will be yielding 7.24% in 3 years .
