Answer:

B) $(1,813)

Explanation:

Initial investment = 17,550

Annual cashflows = 2,650

Terminal Cashflow = 500

You can solve for NPV using financial calculator with the following inputs;

CF0= -17,550

C01 = 2,650

F01 (Frequency) = 19

C02 = 2,650 + 500 = 3,150

I=16%

Net present value; NPV = -1,812.879 or -1,813 rounded off to the nearest whole number.

If the stadium made $2,150,000 last year for sports events but only made $1,650,000 this year, what is the percentage decrease i

23% decrease.


We can do this by simply dividing 1,650,000 by 2,150,000. That would give us 0.7674. Multiply that by 100 and you have 76.74%.

However, this is the percent amount of how 1,650,000 is out of 2,150,000. So, we need to simply minus this answer by 100 to get 23.26, or 23%.

Andrew [12]

Answer:

Given that,

Taxable income = $75,000

Interest from an investment = $10,000

Using the U.S tax rate schedule in 2017

(a) Federal tax will he owe = $5,226.25 + 25% × ($75,000 - $37,950)

                                            = $5,226.25 +  $9262.5

                                            = $14,488.75

(b) Average\ Tax\ Rate = \frac{Total\ Tax}{Taxable\ Income}

    Average\ Tax\ Rate = \frac{14,488.75}{75,000}

                                             = 19.32%.

(c)Effective\ Tax\ Rate = \frac{Total\ Tax}{Total\ Income}

Effective\ Tax\ Rate = \frac{14,488.75}{75,000 + 10,000}

                                        = 17.05%          

(d) Chuck is currently in the 25 percent tax rate bracket.

His marginal tax rate on increases in income up to $16,900 and deductions from income up to $37,050 is 25 percent.
