Explanation: For a long-tenured top-level manager to make such proclamation, shows the inefficiencies of the firm which he is a part of. He obviously has been with the firm for a very long time and making that proclamation will also be a dent in his image as a manager.
Answer:
The payback period is more than 5 years
Explanation:
Net present value is the Net value of all cash inflows and outflows in present value term. All the cash flows are discounted using a required rate of return.
Year Cash flow PV factor Present Value
0 ($490,000) 1 ($490,000)
1 $40,000 0.909 $36,360
2 $10,000 0.826 $8,260
3 $120,000 0.751 $90,120
4 $90,000 0.683 $61,470
5 $180,000 0.621 <u> $111,780 </u>
Net Present Value ($182,010)
NPV of this Investment is negative so, it is not acceptable.
Payback period
Total Net cash inflow of the investment is $440,000 and Initial investment is $490,000. This investment will take more than 5 years to payback the initial investment.
The question is: Which scale rating describes the greatest number of student and how many student responded with this rating.
From the frequency distribution table attach to the question, the scale rating with the highest number of student is 7 out of 10 and the number of students that responded with this rating is 27 students.
Part a) The Cob Douglas production function is given as:

To show that this function is homogeneous with degree 3, we introduce be a parameter, t.

Using properties of exponents, we on tinder:

This implies that:


Simplify the exponent of t to get;

Hence the function is homogeneous with degree, 3
Part b) To verify Euler's Theorem, we must show that:

Verifying from the left:




Q•E•D
Answer:
The credit card is the most effective method of payment.
Explanation:
The store will not ship the item until the payment is accredited to their account. Because of this, Jill needs to pick the payment method that have the fastest clear time.
