The Oklahoma City Zoo has proposed adding to their Web site a major segment providing a virtual tour of the grounds and animals,

suitable for both routine enjoyment and educational purposes in classrooms. Survey data indicate that this will have either a neutral or positive effect upon actual zoo attendance. The Web site will be professionally done and have an initial cost of $305,000. Upkeep, refreshing the videos, and developing videos for scientific research and entertainment will cost another $80,000 per year. The zoo is expected to be in operation for an indefinite period; however, a study period of only 10 years for the Web site is to be assumed, with only a residual (salvage) value of $63,000 for the archival value being anticipated. Interest is 7%. An estimated 90,000 persons will visit the e-zoo in the first year, increasing by 27,500 each year, and they will receive, on the average, an additional $0.70 of benefit per visit when the new area is complete.

Answer:

The Oklahoma City Zoo

A. What is the B/C ratio?

The B/C ratio is the benefit/cost ratio.

B. What is the B-C?

The benefits = $63,000 (90,000 x $0.70)  in the first year

Additional visits = 27,500 x 9 = 247,500

Additional benefits = $173,250 (247,500 x $0.70)

Total benefits = $236,250

The costs =

Initial cost = $305,000

Upkeep, etc = $800,000 ($80,000 x 10 years)

Less salvage value = $63,000

Interest cost = $213,500 (7% of $305,000 x 10 years)

Total costs = $1,255,500

B/C ratio = $236,250/1,255,500 x 100 = 19% approx.

Explanation:

The B/C or Benefit/Cost Ratio is a financial measure that compares the benefits of a project with the costs associated with the project.  It attempts to show how the benefits will outweigh the costs.

The benefits that will accrue from the project when compared to the costs will be 19%.  This implies that less benefit will be derived from the project.

Why do you think celebrities bother to involve themselves in politics?
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

Answer in explanation.

Explanation:

I think that celebrities bother to involve themselves in politics to try and make a statement or gain more fame and followers. Oftentimes, you see celebrities speaking on world events such as the BLM act, global warming, wildfires, or the pandemic that is still ablaze. As we all know, all politicians have their strong opinions but the points do not always get across when just the politicians talk about it. Sometimes, celebrities feel the need to speak on a topic that may be popular in the world of politics just to shine a light on it or even to get more attention. In conclusion, I feel that celebrities try to worm their way into politics because I believe that they think that it will make an impact.
