The net present value of the proposed project is closest to -$80,822.
Since the project saves $80,000 in costs each year, we treat these savings income for the next 4 years. We then calculate the Present value Interest Factor of an annuity using the formula :
PVIF of an annuity = { [ 1 - [ (1+r)⁻ⁿ ] } ÷ r
PVIF of an annuity = { [ 1 - [ (1.09)⁻⁴ ] } ÷ 0.09
PVIF of an annuity = 3.240 (rounded to three decimals)
PV of the cost savings = (3.240*80000) = $2,59,178 (rounded to nearest $)
NPV = PV of cost savings - Value of investment
NPV = 2,59,178
- 3,40,000
Answer:
shifts the short-run Phillips curve up
Explanation:
The Phillips curve is a graph that shows the relationship between inflation and unemployment. In the short run, there is an inverse relationship between inflation and unemployment. The Phillip curve submits that high inflation is the cost to pay for economic growth. economic growth is accompanied by low unemployment. In the long run, there is no trade-off between inflation and unemployment.
An increase in expected inflation leads to an upward shift of the Phillips curve in the short run. Unemployment would stay unchanged. While a decrease in expected inflation leads to a downward shift of the Phillips curve
Stagflation in the 1970s have disproved the Phillips curve. Stagflation is when there is high unemployment and high inflation
Answer:
A. Values
Explanation:
Although, the above explanations entails or encompasses what values are, manners and customs of people in a country; however, values is what summarizes the whole passage.
Values are what a given society holds in high esteem. They are basic and fundamental beliefs that controls actions in a given society.

Answer:
Option (b) is correct.
Explanation:
Contribution margin ratio is the difference between the selling price of the product and the variable cost of the product.
Contribution margin ratio = Selling price - Variable cost
Now, if there is a decrease in the fixed costs and variable costs of the product then as a result contribution margin ratio increases because of the fall in variable cost.
Break even point = (Fixed expense ÷ Contribution margin ratio)
If there is an increase in the contribution margin ration and a reduction in the fixed expense then as a result break even point decreases.
Increased; Decreased
Answer:
Quick ratio = Current assets - Inventory/Current liabilities
= $480,000 - $340,000/$40,000
= 3.5
Current assets = $120,000 + $340,000 + $20,000 = $480,000
Current liabilities = $20,000 + $20,000 = $40,000
Explanation:
Explanation: Quick ratio is the ratio of liquid assets to current liabilities. Liquid assets are current assets less inventory. Liquid assets amounted to $140,000 while current liabilities are $40,000. The division of liquid assets by current liabilities gives quick ratio.
