You are considering an investment in a startup that will cost $100,000 but you will receive a cash inflow of $25,000 every year

for 5 years from the sale of products the startup will manufacture. The required return is 9%, and payback cutoff is 5 years. a) What is the payback period

Answer:

Simple payback is 4 years

Total discounted Payback is more than the 5 years which is the payback cutoff period.

Explanation:

Payback period is the time period in which the project recovers the initial cost incurred. Lower the payback period the more beneficial will be the project.

Simple payback = $100,000 / $25,000 = 4 years

Discounted Payback

Discounted payback is calculated by using the present value of future cash flows.

Total discounted cash flows = 22935.78 + 21042.0 + 19304.59 + 17710.63 + 16248.28 = 97,241.28

As sum of all cash flows are less than the initial investment so, total discounted Payback is more than the 5 years which is the payback cutoff period.

The owner of a shopping mall wishes to expand the number of shops available in the food court. She has a market researcher surve

Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

The Sampling Bias

Explanation:

Here in this question, the owner is only getting information about the customers which are coming to the mall on weekdays only while neglecting the response which could have been received on weekends.

Therefore this can be termed as a <em>Sampling Bias. </em><em>The perfect way to go after this question is to ask the customers which are coming to the mall on weekends as well as weekdays, throughout the day.</em>

<em>Hope this helps. Good luck.</em>

A body in the solar system has a period of 10,759.22 days and a perihelion speed of 10.18 km/s. a. Calculate the aphelion radius

anastassius [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

From the information given, by applying Kepler's 3rd law,

$T^2 \alpha a^3$

where;

T = period

a = semi major axis

T = 356 days (for earth)

a = 1 AU = 1.496 $\times 10^8 \ km$

Therefore, $T^2 = ca^3$

$c= \dfrac{365^2}{(1.496 \times 10^8)^3}$

c = 3.9791 $\times 10^{20} \ day^2/km^3$

However, if the body in the solar system has a period of 10.759.22 days, then, a =?

∴

$T^2 = ca^3$

$a3 = \dfrac{10759.22^2}{3.9791 \times 10^{-20}}$

$a^3 = 2.9092 \times 10^{27}$

$a= \sqrt[3]{2.9092 \times 10^{27}}$

a = 1.4275 $\times 10^9 \ km$

However, the velocity for a perihelion = 10.18 km/s

Using the formula

$v = \sqrt{GM ( \dfrac{2}{r}-\dfrac{1}{a})}$ to calculate the radius, we have:

G = $6.674 \times 10^{-11}$

M = $1.989\times 10^{30} \ kg$

r = perihelion

$v ^2= GM ( \dfrac{2}{r}-\dfrac{1}{a})$

$(10.18 \times 10^3) ^2= 6.674 \times 10^{-11} \times 1.989 \times 10^{30} ( \dfrac{2}{r}-\dfrac{1}{1.425 \times 10^{12}})$

$7.8068 \times 10^{-13}= \dfrac{2}{r}-\dfrac{1}{1.425 \times 10^{12}}$

$\dfrac{2}{r} = 1.4824 \times 10^{-12}$

$r = \dfrac{2}{1.4824 \times 10^{-12}}$

$r = 1.349 \times 10^{12}$

Similarly, the perihelion is expressed by the equation,

r = a(1 - e)

where ;

e= eccentricity

∴

$1.349 \times 10^{12} = 1.425 \times 10^{12} ( 1 - e)$

$1.349 \times 10^{12} - 1.425 \times 10^{12}= - 1.425 \times 10^{12} (e)$

$-7.6\times 10^{10}= - 1.425 \times 10^{12} (e)$

$\dfrac{-7.6\times 10^{10}}{- 1.425 \times 10^{12}}= (e)$

e ( eccentricity) = 0.0533

Aphelion radius in natural miles, r = a( 1+ e)

$r = 1.425 \times 10^{12} ( 1 + 0.0533)$

$r = 1.50 \times 10^{12} \ m$

to nautical miles, we have:

$r = 1.50 \times 10^{12} \times 0.00054 \ nautical \ mile$

radius of aphelion $\mathbf{r = 8.10 \times 10^8}$ nautical miles

In respect to the value of a( i.e $1.4275 \times 10^9 \ km)$

the body of the solar system is Saturn

Explain why saving money with a state minimum auto liability insurance policy generally isn‘t the best idea

nika2105 [10]

It is a bad idea because a minimum auto liability insurance policy is meant for compensation against liability and not for saving purpose.

<h3>What is the liability insurance?</h3>

It is a legal requirement to have an active minimum liability insurance coverage to cover a liability especially injury and damage to third party property

In conclusion, the idea of saving money with the insurance policy is bad because it is meant for compensation against liability and not for saving purpose.
