Answer:

The net present values of the two investments are $46000 and $55000 respectively .

However, the present value index for the first investment is 1.40 while the second investment has 1.2 as net present value index.

Judging from net present value,the the second investment is preferable,but since net present value is an absolute value,it does not  relate the net present value to the underlying outlay,the first investment is preferred based on present value of index 1.4

Explanation:

The net present value for both alternatives is shown below:

                                                         $                               $

Present value of cash inflows         160000                335000

Present value of cash inflows         (114000)               (280000)

Net present value                             46000                  55000

Present value index=present value of inflows/present value of outflows

First investment       =160000/114000=1.40

Second investment =335000/280000=1.2

How does scarcity affect Trey?
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

The answer is: All our actions and decisions are affected by scarcity. Trey must decide what actions he needs to take to maximize his well being.

Explanation:

By definition all resources are finite, they have a limit. Even the richest corporations in the world have a certain amount of money, no one can have infinite money. No basketball team is made up of 7 billion people, someone in the world will not be able to play basketball. Time, materials, goods, services, everything is limited, so everything is scarce.

Trey´s (and everyone else´s) day is only 24 hours long, so he must decide how to divide his time to achieve the goals that maximize his happiness or well being. He must decide what is most important for him, a car or the basketball team. Time scarcity sets up a limit on the decisions we make. He must decide whether to work more to be able to buy the car, or should he stay on the team and forget about the car. Only Trey can decide based on what will make him happier.

(a) Medium of exchange

(b) Store of value

(c) Unit of account

(d) Standard of deferred payments

Sea shells are precious items but one cannot properly split divide those sea shells into small denominations like money does. Money is easily storable, people use as a medium of exchange and unit of account.

By unit of account we mean that we can easily measure the value of goods and service and many things in monetary terms but we cannot measure in terms of sea shells.

That's why sea shells unfit to act as money today.
