If the company requires a return of 10 percent for such an investment, calculate the present value of the project.
The present value of the project is $72349.51.
Since we consider only incremental cash flows for a project, we consider $21,600 for year one and calculate a 4% increase for each of the additional years.
We then calculate the Present Value Interest Factor (PVIF) at 10% for four years using the formula :
PVIF = 1 / [(1+r)^n]
Next, we find the product of the respective cash flows and PVIF for each year.
Finally, we find the total of the discounted cash flows for the four years to find the Present Value of the project.
Answer: 20 women
Explanation:
Making the total number of women in the club 'x', we can then do the following,
Total Number of Names in Hat, N
N = x + 10 ( total number of men)
therefore total number of names in the hat N=x+10
We need to select 3 people so sample size = 3
Using the Hypergeometric Distribution then we can then use the formula,
Expected number of women on the Committee = k * n / N
Where k is the total number
2 = x * 3 / (x + 10)
2 = 3x/(x +10)
3x = 2x +20
x = 20
There are 20 women in the club.
Answer: Machine B because it has the lower Present Value
Explanation:
<h2>
Machine A</h2>
= Present Value of income - Present Value of Costs
Present value of Income;
Sold for $5,000 after 10 years.
= 5,000/ (1 + 8%)^10
= $2,315.97
Present Value of Costs;
Purchased for $48,000.
Maintenance of $1,000 per year for years.
Present value of maintenance= 1,000 * Present value factor of annuity, 10 years, 8%
= 1,000 * 6.7101
= $6,710.10
Machine A Present Value
= 2,315.97 - 6,710.10 - 48,000
= -$52,394
<h2>
Machine B</h2>
No salvage value.
Present Value of costs
Purchased for $40,000.
Present value of maintenance = (4,000 / (1 + 8%)^3) + (5,000 / ( 1 + 8)^6) + (6,000 / ( 1 + 8%)^8)
= -$9,567.79
Present Value = -40,000 - 9,567.79
= -$49,568
