Answer:

NPV = $39,230

Payback period = 3.64 years

Explanation:

The net present value (NPV) = (net annual cash flow x interest factor) - investment

NPV = ($110,000 x 3.993) - $400,000 = $439,230 - $400,000 = $39,230

The payback period = investment / net annual cash flow = $400,000 / $110,000 = 3.64 years or 3 years, 7 months and 19 days

You can also calculate the PV of each annual cash flow which will give you a more precise result, but the variation is minimal:

PV = ($110,000 / 1.08) + ($110,000 / 1.08²) + ($110,000 / 1.08³) + ($110,000 / 1.08⁴) + ($110,000 / 1.08⁵) = $439,198

and the NPV = $39,198

Net Cost of goods = $9,000 - $180

katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

The quality should be about the same.

The social responsibility should also be about the same.

There shouldn't be side effects of most products. If you are speaking of medications, there really ought to be the same side effects with the same severity and the same statistical occurrences.

The only difference is the company selling the product.

There have been exceptions to this where different "fillers" were used in the generic brand and the side effects were different and more severe. I've only heard of one case however and I cannot remember what it was. Manufacturers were careful not to let it happen again.
