Answer:
The correct answer is letter "B": nonphysical constraints.
Explanation:
According to the Theory of Constraints (TOC) a constraint is a limiting factor that does not enable companies to perform their work at their maximum capacity for their goals' achievement. In the same sense, nonphysical constraints are not material factors negatively influencing employees' actions. Wages cuts, reduction of benefits, unclear lines of command are examples of that kind of constraint.
Answer:
(a) If the discount rate is 11 percent, what is the future value of these cash flows in year 4?
To solve this problem, we must find the FV of each cash flow and add them.
To find the FV of a lump sum, we use:
FV = PV(1 + r)^t
[email protected]% = $625(1.11)^3 + $875(1.11)^2+ $1,150(1.11) + $1,250 = $4459
(b) What is the future value at a discount rate of 18 percent?
FV = PV(1 + r)^t
[email protected]% = $625(1.18)^3+ $875(1.18)^2+ $1,150(1.18) + $1,250 = $4852
(c) What is the future value at discount rate of 30 percent?
FV = PV(1 + r)^t
[email protected]% = $625(1.30)^3+ $875(1.30)^2+ $1,150(1.30) + $1,250 = $5597
Opportunity cost is something you gave up to do the other thing you want to do. This is basically the loss of potential gain you can have on a certain alternative because of choosing the other alternative. In this problem, the opportunity cost of writing the term paper is $140 dollars. This can be break-down as follows:
a. $60 opportunity cost<span> she has given up for not</span> working<span> on her job</span>
<span>b. $80 opportunity cost she has given up for not going out with a friend</span>
