const2013 [10]

Answer: Four times.

Explanation:

Based on the information given, the government expenditure multiplier in this case goes thus:

K = ∆Y/∆G = 1/1-MPC = 1/MPS

For the first country with a MPS of 0.05, K = 1/MPS = 1/0.05 = 20

For the first country with a MPS of 0.2, K = 1/MPS = 1/0.2 = 5

Therefore, 20/5 = 4.

Therefore, the answer is four times.

Convert the following temperature to Celsius scale (a) 450 k, (b) 273 k, (c) 73 k.​
masya89 [10]

Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

To convert to Celcius scale from Kelvin, the formula to use is:

Temperature in Celcius = Temperature in Kelvin - 273

a. 450k

Temperature in Celcius = Temperature in Kelvin - 273

= 450 - 273

= 177°Celcius

(b) 273 k

Temperature in Celcius = Temperature in Kelvin - 273

= 273 - 273

= 0°C

(c) 73 k

Temperature in Celcius = Temperature in Kelvin - 273

= 73 - 273

= -200°C

Following is information on two alternative investments being considered by Jolee Company. The company requires a 10% return fro
lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

A. NPV for A= $61,658.06

NPV  for B = $25,006.15

B.  1.36

1.17

Project A

Explanation:

Net present value is the present value of after tax cash flows from an investment less the amount invested.

NPV can be calcuated using a financial calculator

for project A :

Cash flow in

Year 0 = $(172,325)

Year 1 41,000

Year 2 47,000

Year 3 85,295

Year 4 86,400

Year 5 56,000

I = 10%

NPV = $61,658.06

for project B

year 0 = $ (145,960)

Cash flow in

Year 1  27,000

Year 2  52,000

Year 3 50,000  

Year 4 71,000

Year 5  28,000

I = 10%

NPV = $25,006.15

profitability index = 1 + NPV / Initial investment

for project A, PI = $61,658.06 / 172,325 = 1.36

For project B, PI = $25,006.15 / 145,960 = 1.17

The project with the greater NPV and PI should be chosen. this is project A.

To find the NPV using a financial calculator:

1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

2. after inputting all the cash flows, press the NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.  

3. Press compute
