Herman Co. is considering a four-year project that will require an initial investment of $7,000. The base-case cash flows for th

is project are projected to be $12,000 per year. The best-case cash flows are projected to be $19,000 per year, and the worst-case cash flows are projected to be –$3,000 per year. The company’s analysts have estimated that there is a 50% probability that the project will generate the base-case cash flows. The analysts also think that there is a 25% probability of the project generating the best-case cash flows and a 25% probability of the project generating the worst-case cash flows.
What would be the expected net present value (NPV) of this project if the project's cost of capital is 12%?

Answer:

Net Present Value    $ 23,373.49

Explanation:

First, we solve for the expected return:

\left[\begin{array}{cccc}State&Return&Probability&Weight\\best-case&19,000&0.25&4,750\\base-case&12,000&0.5&6,000\\worst-case&-3,000&0.25&-750\\Total&&1&10,000\\\end{array}\right]

Now, we solve for the present value of this vaue over the four-year period:

C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\

C 10,000.00

time 4

rate 0.12

10000 \times \frac{1-(1+0.12)^{-4} }{0.12} = PV\\

PV $30,373.4935

<u>Last we subtract the investment cosT:</u>

30,373.49 - 7,000 = 23,373.49

3. Describe three new weapons used in World War I and explain how each of these w<br>​
Leto [7]

how each of these "w"?  im guessing it means work. and three weapons from then that are "new"? are:

Rifles. All nations used more than one type of firearm during the First World War. The rifles most commonly used by the major combatants were, among the Allies, the Lee-Enfield .303 (Britain and Commonwealth), Lebel and Berthier 8mm (France), Mannlicher–Carcano M1891, 6.5mm (Italy), Mosin–Nagant M1891 7.62 (Russia), and Springfield 1903 .30–06 (USA). The Central Powers employed Steyr–Mannlicher M95 (Austria-Hungary and Bulgaria), Mauser M98G 7.92mm (Germany), and Mauser M1877 7.65mm (Turkey). The American Springfield used a bolt-action design that so closely copied Mauser’s M1989 that the US Government had to pay a licensing fee to Mauser, a practice that continued until America entered the war.

Machine guns. Most machine guns of World War 1 were based on Hiram Maxim’s 1884 design. They had a sustained fire of 450–600 rounds per minute, allowing defenders to cut down attacking waves of enemy troops like a scythe cutting wheat. There was some speculation that the machine gun would completely replace the rifle. Contrary to popular belief, machine guns were not the most lethal weapon of the Great War. That dubious distinction goes to the artillery.

Flamethrowers. Reports of infantry using some sort of flame-throwing device can be found as far back as ancient China. During America’s Civil War some Southern newspapers claimed Abraham Lincoln had observed a test of such a weapon. But the first recorded use of hand-held flamethrowers in combat was on February 26, 1915, when the Germans deployed the weapon at Malancourt, near Verdun. Tanks carried on a man’s back used nitrogen pressure to spray fuel oil, which was ignited as it left the muzzle of a small, hand-directed pipe. Over the course of the war, Germany utilized 3,000 Flammenwerfer troops; over 650 flamethrower attacks were made. The British and French both developed flame-throwing weapons but did not make such extensive use of them.

there are many more, but here are 3 i found from a trustworthy source!

Alexandra [31]

Answer:

a. $720,000

Explanation:

Since in the question, it is given that the equipment is sold at the list price

The list price is $800,000 and the selling percentage is 90%

So, the revenue should be recorded

= List price × selling percentage

One negative consequence of using automation to improve manufacturing production is that:
melamori03 [73]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "A": factories often need fewer workers.

Explanation:

Automation is the introduction of machinery in manufacturing companies with the intention of mass-producing standardized goods in an attempt to reduce costs by using large lines of equipment instead of more human labor hand. While this represents an advantage for companies, it is a drawback for employees who see their job duties being handled to machines.

Automation is used in different industries such as <em>utilities, defense, </em>and <em>information technology.</em>

Would you recommend that Apple raise or lower its price for the iWatch to increase​ revenue?
melisa1 [442]

I would recommend it lower its price.

Explanation:

iWatch is not a product a lot of people wish for and it doesn't compliment the life of users enough to be expensive to buy. When it is expensive sales will reduce which would make sales revenue reduce but if the price is low a lot of people will patronize the product thus increase revenue.
