Why is it illegal to alter the odometer on a vehicle

Business
1 answer:
Lana71 [14]3 years ago

Odometer reading is a vital tool in car assessment, it represents safety, real age of the vehicle, and many other general factors. The act of altering the number constitutes forgery and fraud, due to it's apparent nature. For example, if it would be legal to alter the odometer reading, then many people could buy brand new cars at their local dealerships, with reality being that those are used cars with thousands of miles on them, and used car owners will be more prone to be in car collisions, without having a clue of the real state of their car.

Borghia Pharmaceuticals has $1 million allocated for capital expenditures. a. Which of the following projects should the company
balu736 [363]

Answer:

Please refer below the answer in detail

Explanation:

a)

With a limited budget, the firm will first pursue projects with the highest return, and the allocate the remaining capital to the project with the second highest return, and so on until all capital is fully allocated. Based on the information, Project 6 has the highest return, followed by 1 and 3. These three projects together will cost:

350,000 + 300,000 + 250,000 = $900,000

After those three projects, the firm will have $100,000 left. The best out of remaining project is 7, but it costs 400,000, which the firm cannot afford. The best affordable project is 4, which offers a return of 12.1%. Hence, the firm should spend the remaining 100,000 on project 4.

b)

The budget limit constraints the firm to give up project 7, which offers a NPV of $48,000. The firm is forced to choose project 4, which has a NPV of $14,000.

Thus the lost in market value of the firm = 48,000 - 14,000 = $34,000.
