You decided to buy apples at a grocery store somewhere in the mountains. You buy 5 pounds of apples, which are sold for $1.99/lb

. (One pound is the unit of force equal to 0.454 kgx9.80 m/s where g = 9.80 m/s2 is the standard value of the acceleration due to the gravity). You overpaid for the apples, since the value of the acceleration due to the gravity at this mountain location is only gmountain 9.79 mis.
Determine how much you overpaid for your 5 pounds of apples.

Answer:

Amount overpaid = $0.0104 (Approx)

Explanation:

Given:

Quantity of apple = 5 lb

Amount paid = $ 1.99 / lb

Gravity on mountain = 9.79 m/s²

Find:

Amount overpaid

Computation:

Actual mass of apple = 5 (9.79/9.80)

Actual mass of apple = 4.9948

Actual amount = 4.9948 × 1.99

Actual amount = $9.9396

Amount overpaid = Amount paid -Actual amount

Amount overpaid = [5 x 1.99] - $9.9396

Amount overpaid = $0.0104 (Approx)

Answer:

4.25%

Explanation:

We need to calculate the net present value of the cash flows to determine the  IRR.

NPV = PV of Cash inflows - PV of Cash outflows

As the cash inflow and outflow are fixed for specific period of time so, we will use the annuity formula to calculate the NPV.

NPV = [ $5,000 x ( 1 - ( 1 + 18% )^-5) /18% ] - [ ( $4,000 x ( 1 - ( 1 + 18% )^-12) /18%) x ( 1 + 18%)^-6 ]

NPV = $15,636 - $7,102 = $8,534

We need NPV on a higher rate of 10%

NPV = [ $5,000 x ( 1 - ( 1 + 10% )^-5) /10% ] - [ ( $4,000 x ( 1 - ( 1 + 10% )^-12) /10%) x ( 1 + 10%)^-6 ]

NPV = $18,954 - $15,385 = $3,569

IRR = Lower rate + [ Lower rate NPV / (Lower rate NPV - Higher rate NPV) ] (higher rate - lower rate)

IRR = 10% + [ 3,569 / ($3,569 - $8,534) ] (18% - 10%)

IRR = 4.25%
