Answer:

a. 9.1 percent deflation between the first and second years, and 4 percent deflation between the second and third years.

Explanation:

To calculate the rate of inflation/deflation, we have to divide by the oldest price index.

The second year, the variation of the price index was:

\Delta PI/PI=\frac{PI_2-PI_1}{PI_1}=\frac{100-110}{110}=\frac{-10}{110}=-0.909=-9.1\%

This means a 9.1% deflation.

The third year, the variation of the price index was:

\Delta PI/PI=\frac{PI_3-PI_2}{PI_2}=\frac{96-100}{100}=\frac{-4}{100}=-0.04=-4\%

This means a 4% deflation.

solong [7]

Answer:

4 years

Explanation:

Payback period is the time in which a project returns back the initial investment in the form of net cash flow.

Initial Investment = $280,000

Net Income = $20,000

To calculate the net cash flows add bask the depreciation expense in Net income each year.

Depreciation = ($280,000 - $30,000) / 5 = $50,000

Net Cash Flow = $20,000 + $50,000 = $70,000

Payback period = Initial Investment / yearly cash flow = $280,000 / $70,000 = 4 years
