attashe74 [19]

The net present value of the proposed project is closest to -$80,822.

Since the project saves $80,000 in costs each year, we treat these savings income for the next 4 years. We then calculate the Present value Interest Factor of an annuity using the formula :

PVIF of an annuity = { [ 1 - [ (1+r)⁻ⁿ ] } ÷ r

PVIF of an annuity = { [ 1 - [ (1.09)⁻⁴ ] } ÷ 0.09

PVIF of an annuity = 3.240 (rounded to three decimals)

PV of the cost savings = (3.240*80000) = $2,59,178 (rounded to nearest $)

NPV = PV of cost savings - Value of investment

NPV = 2,59,178 - 3,40,000

ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

a. unethical

Explanation:

This company's behavior is unethical. In the globalized world, it is natural for transnational firms to direct their production structure to countries where labor is cheaper, as this makes their product more competitive in the international market. However, these firms must not take advantage of regulatory failures in the labor market in these countries to increase their profit. Every firm must be concerned and ensure that the physical integrity and health of employees who work on its plants is preserved, regardless of location. Thus, in order to act ethically, this firm should implement process improvements to minimize the exposure of employees to chemical agents and to inhibit the exploitation of the labor that occurs when employees work in excess and without being paid for overtime.

ollegr [7]

Answer:

Instructions are listed below

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

At the end of each year, she invests the accumulated savings ($1,825) in a brokerage account with an expected annual return of 8%. She will invest for 45 years.

A) We need to use the following formula:

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i

A= annual deposit

FV= {1825[(1.08^45)-1]}/0.08= $705,372.75

B) n= 25

FV= {1825[(1.08^25)-1]}/0.08= $133,418.34

C) FV= 705,372.75     A=?

We need to isolate A:

A= (FV*i)/{[(1+i)^n]-1}

A=(705,372.75*0.08)/[(1.08^25)-1]

A= $9,648.64
