I If you were to advise DreamWorks Classics

motikmotik

<em><u>If I had any advice for DreamWorks Classics, it would be to insist on adopting the 'organic' approach for internationalising Postman Pat.</u></em>

Explanation to the following is as follows;

Postman Pat chronicles the exploits of Pat Clifton, a postal worker for the Royal Mail in the imaginary community of Greendale. This product image is firmly ingrained in British habits and culture; therefore, it is unlikely that Postman Pat would have succeeded if they had followed the ‘born global' path when launching this cartoon.

A project initially costs $40,500 and will not produce any cash flows for the first 2 years. Starting in Year 3, it will produce

melisa1 [442]

Answer:

Net present value = $2063.1922

Explanation:

given data

initially costs = $40,500

cash flows = $34,500

final cash inflow = $12,000

required rate of return = 18.5 percent

solution

The cash flows is

Year 0 = $40500

Year 1 = $0

Year 2 = $0

Year 3 = $34500

Year 4 = $34500

Year 5 = $0

Year 6 = $12000

so Net present value will be express as

Net present value = -Initial cash outflow + Present value of future cash flows ...............1

Present value of future cash flows = (cash flow in year n) ÷ (1 + required rate of return)^t ..........................2

put here value we get

Present value = $\frac{0}{(1+0.185)^1} + \frac{0}{(1+0.185)^2} + \frac{34500}{(1+0.185)^3} + \frac{34500}{(1+0.185)^4} + \frac{0}{(1+0.185)^5} + \frac{12000}{(1+0.185)^6}$

Present value = $42563.1922

Net present value= -$40500 + $42563.1922

Net present value = $2063.1922

As a junior congress person you have been asked to help promote a bill to allow casino gambling in your state. There is much opp

MariettaO [177]

Explanation:

I would promote the establishment of the Casino Gambling Bar in my state and plan my arguments for discussion on the following items:

Casino deserves to play in the State:

More collection of revenue in the form of tax for the administration.

Tourist inflows on weekends, which lead to additional state revenues.

Boost in other businesses, such as casinos, pubs, car parks, gas sales, beer sales and expanded road tax collection.

Improved prospects for jobs.

The increased income selection will create a tourist attraction for the state residents, such as the ocean or a lake.

The demerits I can list and probably face during the argument are:

Concerns of law and order: Night operations are improved and provisions for the Casino Licensing are complied with.

It can increase drug trafficking. Education shall be taken by the police and other law enforcement agencies.

Drug addicts can harm the state: police take care. drug addicts.

Nightlife can be achieved for neighboring residents. Credit shall be taken on night patrols.

Can increase the number of road accidents caused by drunk driving.

Case that Casino Gambling is not new to America. Any real and concrete ties to ill effects such as opined use, drug trafficking and other ill effects are only attributed to a gaming casino.

If all the negative effects expected or perceived by the law enforcement agency are tracked, all the negative effects may be entirely eradicated and savings can be gained from increased revenues by the state.

Discussions with all state machinery must be held before the property is transferred to the casino and the police office can also provide its guidance during this time.
