Answer:
A)Choose A B) Choose B C) 0.45
Explanation:
We will use the NPV formula to calculate the IRR and them choose investment opportunity with a high IRR
NPV (A)=CF/R -II
0 =2.4/r -10 m
r=0.24/24%
NPV(B)=1.8/r-0.045-10
0=1.8/r-0.045-10
r=0.135/13.5%
Therefore choose A
B)NPV (A)
=2.4/0.064-10
=$27.5 MIL
NPV (B)
=1.8/0.064-0.045 -10
=1.8/0.019-10
=$84.74 MIL
Therefore choose B as it has higher NPV
C) Equate the NPV to in order to calculate the cost of capital
2.4/r -10 =1.8/r-0.045 -10
2.4/r=1.8/r-0.045
1.8r=2.4r-0.108
0.6r=0.108
r=0.556/5.56%
=
Answer: Project Q
Explanation:
If the company can accept only one project, they should accept Project Q because it has a higher net present value than Project P. This is because a higher Net Present value takes precedence to IRR as it discounts cashflows at the company's cost of capital and is already adjusted for cost.
With the company budget at $50 million, accepting Project Q which costs $48 million means that they will be unable to accept Project P. That is fine because Project Q as earlier mentioned, provides a higher NPV.
Answer:
$0.27
Explanation:
Earnings per share is the total earnings attributable to common stockholders divided by the weighted average number of common stock.
total earnings attributable to common stockholders=net income-preferred stock dividends
net income is $151,200
preferred dividends is $13,000
earnings attributable to common stock=$151,200-$13,000=$138,200.00
weighted average number of common stock=(491,000+543,000)/2 = 517,000.00
EPS=$138,200/ 517,000=$ 0.27

Answer:
Option A; INSTRUMENTALITY.
Explanation:
The expectancy theory explains the processes an individual undergoes to make choices.
INSTRUMENTALITY is the perception of employees as to whether they will actually get what they desire or not.
Lucas's concern is related to instrumentality because he is not sure whether the on-time performance goal will be met or not, even if he puts more effort and performs as expected of him because there are other individual who may cause the desired result not to happen.
Therefore, based on expectancy theory, INSTRUMENTALITY is most closely related to Lucas's concern.
