Answer:
It will take 1 year and 307 days to cover the initial investment.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Initial investment= $6,900
Cash flows:
Cf1= $4,200
Cf2= $5,100
Cf3= $6,300
Cf4= $5,500
Discount rate= 15%
<u>The payback period is the time required to cover the initial investment. We need to discount each cash flow.</u>
<u></u>
Year 1= 4,200/1.15 - 6,900= -3,247.83
Year 2= 5,100/1.15^2 - 3,247.83= 608.50
<u>To be more accurate:</u>
(3,247.83 / 3,856.33)*365= 307 days
It will take 1 year and 307 days to cover the initial investment.
Answer:
4/11 and 6/15 dressers.
Explanation:
Absolute advantage is the ability of a country to produce more of a product given the same resources than another country per unit time. It also applies when a country is able to produce same amount of goods with another country given less inputs.
So a country that produces more goods uses a more efficient process to get more output.
In this scenario a worker in Peru can produce 11 lamps or 4 dressers in a day and a worker in Canada can produce 15 lamps or 6 dressers in a day. Canada has absolute advantage in producing lamps and dressers, so importing these items will not be beneficial.
To get a balance where both countries will benefit a lamp will have to go for a ratio of each countrie's product to the opportunity cost.
That is for Peru to produce 4 dressers it will have opportunity cost of 11 lamps. So the ratio is 4/11.
Also for Canada to produce 6 dressers it will have opportunity cost of 15 lamps. So the ratio is 6/15.
Lamp should trade for between 4/11 to 6/15 dressers for both countries to benefit.
Answer:
2968
Explanation:
total demand is 2554
growth rate is 16.2%
Next year total demand = 2554 + growth (total demand x 16.2%)
= 2554 + 2554*16.2/100
= 2554 + 413.748
= 2967.748
= 2968
Answer:
$10 million
Explanation:
Calculation for the reported profit for the first year of the contract
Using this formula
Reported profit=(BB Costs/Project cost estimate)×(Building contract-Project cost estimate)
Let plug in the formula
Reported profit = ($30 million / $75 million)×($100 million – $75 million)
Reported profit=0.4 million ×25 million
Reported profit= $10 million
Therefore the reported profit for the first year of the contract will be $10 million
