Answer:

If discount rate is 11.7% Project B should be accepted.

If discount rate is 13.5% both projects should be rejected

Explanation:

If the Net present value of Project A is higher than that of project B, we will accept project A and vice versa.

<u>Under 11.7% Discount Rate</u>

Net Present Value-Project A = -82000 + 34000 / 1.117  +  34000 / 1.117²  +   34000 / 1.117³  = $85.099

Net Present Value-Project B = -82000 + 115000 / 1.117³ = $516.029

Project B should be accepted as it has a higher NPV.

<u />

<u>Under 13.5% Discount Rate</u>

Net present Value-Project A = -82000 + 34000 / 1.135 + 34000 / 1.135² + 34000 / 1.135³   = - $2397.49

Net Present Value-Project B = -82000 + 115000 / 1.135³  = - $3347.91

Both projects should be rejected as both have negative NPVs

RoseWind [281]

Answer:

option d) approximately 84%

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Mean, m = $92

Standard deviation, s = $13

Now,

we have to calculate percentage of homes will have a monthly utility bill of more than $79 i.e P(X > 79)

also,

P( X > 79) = 1 - P( X < 79)

Z-score for (X = 79 ) = \frac{X-m}{s}

Z = \frac{79-92}{13}

or

Z = -1

From the standard Z value vs P table, we have

P( Z < -1 ) = 0.1587

Thus,

P( X < 79) = P( Z < -1 ) = 0.1587

therefore,

P(X > 79) = 1 - 0.1587

or

P(X > 79) = 0.8413

or

= 0.8413 × 100%

= 84.13%

Hence,

option d) approximately 84%
