<span>The city is likely to face problems in raising the funds because different businesses may try and get out of paying their portion thinking that other businesses will 'pick up the tab' for them. Basically, some businesses will lay low and try to avoid paying towards the new lighthouse thinking that other companies will pay it for them to try and keep their benefits without payment. </span>

Explanation:

Net cash inflow = Cash inflow - cash outflow

Given that net cash inflow = $30,000 per month for 4 years

Rate of return = 10%

Present Value = \frac{1}{(1+0.1)^{1} } X $30,000 + \frac{1}{(1+0.1)^{2} } X $30,000 + \frac{1}{(1+0.1)^{3} } X $30,000 + \frac{1}{(1+0.1)^{4} } X $30,000

= $27,272.72 +$24,793.38 + $22,539.44 + $20,490.40

klasskru [66]

Answer:

c. $1,300 gain

Explanation:

In this scenario, Susan recognized a $1,300 gain on this sale. This is because Susan originally purchased the stock for a total price of $6,000. When she sold the stock, she sold it for a higher price than what she originally paid for it therefore recognizing a gain. To calculate this gain we simply subtract her initial purchase price from her selling price of the stock which would give us a $1,300 gain.

$7,300 - $6,000 = $1,300
