k0ka [10]

A prokaryotic cell wall that has primarily peptidoglycan with small amounts of teichoic acid and lipoteichoic acid is: gram positive.

<h3>What is a prokaryotic cell wall?</h3>

The prokaryotic cells are known to have strong cell walls. These are known to be located under a particular capsule. The function is to help in the maintenance of shape and also help in the protections of the interior parts of the cells.

Hence we can say that: A prokaryotic cell wall that has primarily peptidoglycan with small amounts of teichoic acid and lipoteichoic acid is: gram positive.

You own a portfolio that is 30 percent invested in Stock X, 20 percent in Stock Y, and 50 percent in Stock Z. The expected retur
Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

11.2%

Explanation:

We need to calculate the weighted return of the portfolio. You have to multiply each stock's weight by the expected return.

  • Stock X = 0.30 x 9% (expected return) = 2.7%
  • Stock Y = 0.20 x 15% (expected return) = 3%
  • Stock Z = 0.50 x 11% (expected return) = 5.5%
  • weighted return of the portfolio = 2.7% + 3% + 5.5% = 11.2%

MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

Uncertainty over Reliable and Unreliable Product

a. Given this uncertainty, the most this consumer will pay to purchase one unit of this product is $25

b. The amount that this consumer will be willing to pay for the product if the firm offering the reliable product includes a warranty that will protect the consumer is $50.

c. This is because the stated maximum amount that the consumer is willing to pay for the reliable product is $50.  She is not prepared to spend more than this amount on the reliable product.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

                                                                    Unreliable     Reliable

Maximum amount the consumer will pay      $0              $50

Probability of reliability                                    0.5              0.5

Expected amount to pay for either product  $0              $25 ($50 * 0.5)

a. Given this uncertainty, the most this consumer will pay to purchase one unit of this product is $25 ($0 + $25)

A project with an initial investment of $451,700 will generate equal annual cash flows over its 8-year life. The project has a r
Drupady [299]

Answer:

$81,307.55

Explanation:

The minimum annual cash flow required to accept the project is the equal annual cash flow that makes net present value of the project to be at least equal to zero. In other words, it is the equal annual cash flow that equates the initial investment and the summation of the present values (PV) of all the 8-year equal annual cash flow.

This can be estimated as using the formula for calculating the ordinary annuity as follows:

PV = P × [{1 - [1 ÷ (1+r)]^n} ÷ r] …………………………………. (1)

Where;

PV = Present values of equal annual cash flow that is equal to Initial investment = $451,700

P = annual cash flow = ?

r = required return = 8.9% = 0.089

n = number of years = 8

Substitute the values into equation (1) to have:

$451,700 = P × [{1 - [1 ÷ (1 + 0.089)]^8} ÷ 0.089]

$451,700 = P × 5.55544994023063

P = $451,700 / 5.55544994023063

P = $81,307.5457181148

P = $81,307.55 when approximated to two decimal places.

Therefore, the minimum annual cash flow required to accept the project is $81,307.55.
