Answer:
The correct option is (b)
Explanation:
According to the scenario, the foreign currency that original sold at the market is shown below:
= (Forward rate to Jan 15 - Spot rate) × paymen made
= ($0.00089 - $0.00082 ) × 20 million
= $0.00007 × 20,000,000
= $1,400 premium
hence, the foreign currency that originally sold at the market is $1,400 premium
Therefore the correct option is (b)
Answer:
b. steel purchased by the aircraft manufacturers.
Explanation:
An intermediate good is a producer good or semi-finished good that is used as an input in the production process in the manufacturing of other goods such as finished goods. An example of an intermediate good in the options given above will be steel that is purchased by the aircraft manufacturers.

Answer:
The maximum investment is $6,360.111
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
The placement of a new surface would reduce the annual maintenance cost to $500 per year for the first 3 years and to $1000 per year for the next 7 years. After 10 years the annual maintenance would again be $2500.
We need to find the net present value. The maximum initial investment will be the amount that makes the NPV cero.
NPV=∑[Cf/(1+i)^n]
Cf= cash flow
<u>For example:</u>
Year 1= 500/1.05= 476.19
Year 3= 500/1.05^3= 431.92
Year 5= 1,000/1.05^5= 783.53
NPV= 6,360.111
The maximum investment is $6,360.111
Answer:
4.76%
Explanation:
The requirement in this question is determining the discount rate which gives the same present value in both cases since discount rates discount future cash flows to present value terms.
PV of a pertuity=annual cash flow/discount rate
PV of a pertuity=$17,000/r
PV of ordinary annuity=annual cash flow*(1-(1+r)^-n/r
PV of ordinary annuity=$30,000*(1-(1+r)^-18/r
$17,000/r=$30,000*(1-(1+r)^-18/r
multiply boths side by r
17000=30,000*(1-(1+r)^-18
divide both sides by 30000
17000/30000=1-(1+r)^-18
0.566666667=1-(1+r)^-18
by rearraging the equation we have the below
(1+r)^-18=1-0.566666667
(1+r)^-18=0.433333333
divide indices on both sides by -18
1+r=(0.433333333)^(1/-18)
1+r=1.047554315
r=1.047554315-1
r=4.76%
