Answer:
A) 19.91%
Explanation:
Net present value of cash flow at 19.91% can be calculated as follows
- 100000 + 30000/1.1991 + 30000/ (1.1991)² + 30000/(1.1991)³ + 30000/ (1.1991)⁴ +30000/(1.1991)⁵ + 30000/ (1.1991)⁶
= -100000 + 25018 +20864 +17400 +14511 +12101 +10092
= 0 ( approx )
So the IRR for the project is 19.91 % .

Explanation:
The convenience yield reflects the premium of possessing an asset instead of one of its derivates or contracts. This situation arises in front of inverted markets, where holding the asset itself may bring more profits than purchasing a derivate of the same asset.

Answer:
Margin of safety - Units =3350
Margin of safety - Sales Revenue = $251250
Explanation:
Margin of Safety indicates how much sales may decrease before a loss can be made.
<u>Margin of safety - Units</u>
Margin of safety - Units = 5000-1650 =3350
<em>Margin of Safety as a % = 3350/5000 ×100 = 67%</em>
<u>Margin of safety - Sales Revenue</u>
Expected Sales = (5000 × $75) =$375000
Margin of Safety = $375000 × 67% = $251250
