Answer:

a) Amount to be invested today = $506,830.9

b) She will retire in 10.5 years time

Explanation:

The amount to be invested by Sara Wiggum today at 4%  to accumulate $2 million in 35 years is called the Present Value.

Present value (PV) is  the discounted value of a future amount at the opportunity cost rate of return .  The amount to be invested now at a particular rate of return to equal a future sum.

Present Value (PV)= (1+r)^(-n) × Future cash flow

For Sarah, the

PV = (1+0.04)× (-35) × 2,000,000

    = 0.2534 × 2,000,000

     = 506,830.9415

Amount to be invested today = $506,830.9

<em>How soon will She retire at rate of 14% per annum?</em>

The PV is still  506,830.9415,

FV is still 2,000,000,

But rate now is - 14%, and

n - ?.  

so we need to work out "n"

Work out "n" as folows:

(1+0.14)^(-n) = 2000000/506,830.9

(1+0.14)^(-n)   = 3.9406

n =  log 3.9406/log 1.14

n = 10.5 years

She will retire in 10.5 years time

aleksley [76]

Option C -Operating Cash Flow = Current Liabilities / Operating Cash Flow s not a correct way of calculating a liquidity ratio.

Liquidity ratios are a measure of a company's ability to settle its short-term payments. A company has the ability to quickly exchange its revenues and is using them to pay his obligations is dictated by its liquidity ratios. The potential to pay back debts and keep engaged on installments is simpler the better the ratio. Since this can vary by industry, and current ratio of 1.0 usually signals that a group's debt do not exceeding its liquid assets. In enterprises in which there is a quicker product changeover and/or shorter payment cycles, ratings below 1.0 may be acceptable.

Absolute liquidity ratio =(Cash + Marketable Securities)÷ Current Liability.
