Answer:

4) recorded as a reduction of the cost of the land.

Explanation:

When you are calculating the cost of any land purchased, you must start with the purchase price and add all the expenditures necessary for getting the land ready, e.g. legal fees, taxes, real estate commissions, land grading, clearing the trees, etc., and subtract any revenue obtained, e.g. from the sale of salvaged materials or timber.

katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

African Route costs = -75,000, period 1 revenues = 215,000

Greek Route costs = -50,000, period 2 revenues = 140,000

Sumerian Route costs = -125,000, period 3 revenues = 385,000

discount rate = 5%

a) African route:

NPV = -75,000 + 215,000/1.05 = 129,762

B/C ratio = 215/75 = 2.87

Payback = 1 period

IRR = 187%

Greek route:

NPV = -50,000 + 140,000/1.05² = 76,984

B/C ratio = 140/50 = 2.8

Payback = 2 periods

IRR = 67%

Sumerian route

NPV = -125,000 + 385,000/1.05³ = 332,577

B/C ratio = 385/125 = 3.08

Payback = 3 periods

IRR = 45%

b) rank according to:

NPV = Sumerian route, African route, Greek route

B/C ratio = Sumerian route, African route, Greek route

Payback = African route, Greek route, Sumerian route

IRR = African route, Greek route, Sumerian route

c) if the family had unlimited resources, they should invest in the 3 routes since all their NPVs are positive.

d) African and Greek routes since they yield the highest gains (IRR).

Joint Tenancy

Explanation:

Joint tenancy represents a legal contractual arrangement that involves two or more people who have agreed to own a single property sharing both obligations and rights equally.

The terms of join tenancy is such that no one whether the partner or an inheritor of will is able to sell the property in future without the consent of other partners. Secondly, when a partner dies joint tenancy does not transfer assets to heirs instead it is vested in the surviving partner.

It becomes that Bill did not name his wife as his beneficiary, hence Mike inherits the entire 342 acres of land after Bill's death.
