Answer:

The present (Year 0) value of the cash flow steam if the opportunity cost rate is 10% is $10742.50

Explanation:

For computing the present value, first we have to calculate the discounted factor. After that multiply the discounted factor with cash flows so that present value could be calculated.

So, the formula for computing discounted factor is

= 1/ (1+rate)^year

where,

rate is 10%

year = 0,1,2,3,4,5

So Discounted factor for:

Year 0 is 1

Year 1 is 0.909

Year 2 is 0.826

Year 3 is 0.751

Year 4 is 0.683

Year 5 is 0.621

Now, after getting discounted factor, the present value is

= Discounted factor of each year + Cash flow of each year

So,

For year 0 = 1 × $2,000 = $2,000

For year 1 = 0.909 × $2,500 = $2272.50

For year 2 = 0.826 × $0 = $0

For year 3 = 0.751 × $1,500 = $1,126.50

For year 4 = 0.683 × $3,000 = $2,049

For year 5 = 0.621 × $4,500 = $2794.50

Hence, the present value is = Present value of year 0 + Present value of year 1 + Present value of year 2 + Present value of year 3 + Present value of year 4 + Present value of year 5

= $2,000 + $2,772.50 + $0 + $1,126.50 + $2,049 + $2794.50

= $10742.50

Thus, the present (Year 0) value of the cash flow steam if the opportunity cost rate is 10% is $10742.50

Mrac [35]

Answer: d. choose the price at which it sells its butter.

Explanation:

In a competitive market, the individual sellers do not choose a price to sell at but rather the market does. This is due to the high number of sellers in the market so individual sellers do not have bargaining power.

The price will therefore equal the firm's marginal revenue as well as Average revenue.

A car manufacturer is considering locating an assembly plant in your region.

igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer: Perception of the society towards this.

Explanation:

When citing an industry or production site in a locality most often capital is required to get this done but in many scenario capital doesn't seems to be the problem, as the location where these industry is aimed to be planted may likely have an issue with the residents of that environment as regards planting the industry. Some times these opposition is done for obvious reasons as regards health consideration which comes with noise and air pollution but some other times there may be unjustifiable reasons for these not to be planted, probably due greed or the community seeks a share in the resources or return in investment when the firm is planted in their resident. This is a complex problem.

A simple problem would be closeness to the market. If the product in question is desired by the residents in that area, even though the manufacturer might want to be exporting but it'll be a big plus if the residents consider his products more than the external environment.

Nimby can defined as when an individual or a group opposes a decision for the citing of infrastructure and industies in their environment, claiming them to be hazardous to the residents of the environment.

This comes into play for the complex decision because if those residing in the environment don't give a "go ahead" for planting of the industry it won't be successful.

uses the conventional retail method to determine its ending inventory at cost. Assume the beginning inventory at cost (retail) w

lisov135 [29]

Answer:

The ending inventory value at cost is ($100,000)

Explanation:

To calculate the cost of ending inventory using the retail inventory method, we need to know:

The cost-to-retail percentage = COGS/ sales during current year = (sales – net markup)/sales = ($2,500,000-$200,000)/$2,500,000 = 92%
The cost of goods available for sale= Cost of beginning inventory + Cost of purchases = $200,000 + $2,000,000 = $2,200,000
The cost of sales during the period = Sales × cost-to-retail percentage = $2,500,000 x 92% = $2,300,000
The ending inventory = Cost of goods available for sale - Cost of sales during the period = $2,200,000 - $2,300,000 = ($100,000)

The manager of a store that specializes in selling tea decides to experiment with a new blend. She will mix some Earl Grey tea t

Lelechka [254]

Answer:

Amount of Grey tea = 100 pounds

Amount of Orange Pekoe tea = 300 pounds

Explanation:

let G = amount of Grey tea

let 400 - G = amount of Orange Pekoe tea

6G + 4 (400 - G) = 4.5 x 400

6G + 1,600 - 4G = 1,800

2G = 1,800 - 1,600 = 200

G = 200 / 2 = 100

400 - G = 400 - 100 = 300

You are operating a pwc. what is most likely to create a blind spot that blocks other boats from seeing you?

harkovskaia [24]

A PWC is a Personal Water Craft or a water scooter. When using a PWC, what will most likely create a blind spot that will blocks other boats from seeing you is passing too closely behind other vessels. One has to keep a respectable distance from other vessels. Headlight also can also create a blind spot and prevent other users from seeing you.
