Answer:

b. anchoring and adjustment heuristic.

Explanation:

Anchoring and adjustment heuristic is a Psychological heuristic in which a person or individual influences others by suggesting a starting point. The other person will then rely on the first information offered and an anchor is then placed. The further judgment is made around that anchor which created a bias toward interpretation of information.  

Janice also used a strategy of anchoring and adjustment bias by giving first offer of salary. This will be considered as anchor which is placed and all the other negotiations will be around that salary anchor which will be used as starting point.

liberstina [14]

Answer:

(a) Cash payback period:

     Project Red = 5.5 years

     Project blue  = 4.6 years

(b) Net present value for project Red = $19,760

     Net present value for project Blue =$164,580

(c) Annual rate of return:

Project Red =11.36%

Project Blue  =18.75%

(d) Project Blue

Explanation:

Given Data;  

Project Blue Capital investment = $640,000

Project Red Capital investment = $440,000

Project Red  Annual Net income = $ 25,000.

Project Blue Annual Net income = $ 60,000

Annual depreciation Project Red = (440000/8)

                                                       = 55,000

Annual depreciation Project Blue = (640000/8)

                                                       =  80,000

Annual cash inflow project A = $ 80,000

Annual cash inflow project B = $140,000

(a)

Cash payback period = Initial investment/cash flow per period

Project Red = 440000 /80000

                   = 5.5 years

Project blue = 640000/ 140000

                    = 4.6 years

(b)

Project Red  Present value of cash inflows = 80000 ×5.747

                                                                       = $459,760

Project Blue Present value of cash inflows  =140000×5.747

                                                                        = 804580

Net present value for project Red = $459,760 - $440,000

                                                        = $19,760

Net present value for project Blue = 804580 - $640,000  

                                                         =$164,580

(c) Annual rate of return:

Project Red   = $25,000 / ($440000)/2

                       =11.36%

Project Blue =  $60000/(640000/2)

                    =18.75%

(d) Savanna should select Project Blue because it has a higher positive NPV and a higher annual rate of return. AND Project Blue has early cash back period also

A 27-year U.S. Treasury bond with a face value of $1,000 pays a coupon of 6.00% (3.000% of face value every six months). The rep
nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

(A) $1,055.35  (B) $2,180.53  (C) $780.07  (D) $412.08.

Explanation:

The tenor of the bond is 27 years i.e. (27 * 2=) 54 periods of 6 months each (n).

Face Value (F) = $1,000

Coupon (C) = 6% annually = 3% semi annually = (3% * 1000 face value) = $30.

The Present Value (PV) of the Bond is computed as follows.

PV of recurring coupon payments + PV of face value at maturity

= \frac{C(1-(1+r)^{-n}) }{r} + \frac{F}{(1+r)^{n}}

A) Yield = 5.6% annually = 2.8% semi annually.

PV = \frac{30(1-(1.028)^{-54}) }{0.028} + \frac{1,000}{(1.028)^{54}}

= 830.25 + 225.10

= $1,055.35.

B) Yield = 1% annually = 0.5% semi annually.

PV = \frac{30(1-(1.005)^{-54}) }{0.005} + \frac{1,000}{(1.005)^{54}}

= 1,416.64 + 763.89

= $2,180.53.

C) Yield = 8% annually = 4% semi annually.

PV = \frac{30(1-(1.04)^{-54}) }{0.04} + \frac{1,000}{(1.04)^{54}}

= 659.79 + 120.28

= $780.07.

D) Yield = 15% annually = 7.5% semi annually.

PV = \frac{30(1-(1.075)^{-54}) }{0.075} + \frac{1,000}{(1.075)^{54}}

= 391.95 + 20.13

= $412.08.
