Answer:

A. Project managers render a definitive estimate for the first stage and an order of magnitude estimate for the remainder of the project.

Explanation:

Project managers should not lie to themselves or others regarding project costs. Fixed costs remain the same regardless of the size or volume of work, while variable costs vary directly with volume of use. The project scope does not come into play when considering fixed and variable cost choices.

To provide an up-to-date record of commitments and authorized within budgets so that unexpected over/under run costs do not result, ensuring that all transactions are properly recorded and authorised and, where appropriate, decisions are justified.

Answer:

A

Explanation:

In a Rolling wave technique, a project manager is able to plan a project while it is taking place.

An example is where a project manager is faced with a project that has to be done in 10 months. And after estimating costs, the financial resources available could only run for the first 3 months. In this case the first 3 months are already accounted for. This is the definitive estimate for the first stage.

As the project progresses and more financial resources are available, the following months can be planned.

A machine with a cost of $75,000 has an estimated residual value of $5,000 and an estimated life of 4 years or 18,000 hours. Wha
allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

The answer is:  $18, 750

Explanation:

The double-declining-balance(DDB) method entails computing depreciation of an asset at an accelerated rate. This method is employed when the asset loses value quickly and is expected to generate more revenue at the earlier stages of its useful life. The depreciation is higher at the beginning and lower close to the end of the asset's useful life. The depreciation is computed as follows:

Depreciation = 2 * straight line depreciation percentage * Book value at the beginning of the period

Machine cost: $75, 000

Residual Value: $5, 000

Estimated Life: 4 years/18, 000 hours

Straight line depreciation percentage : 100/4 = 25%

Depreciation Year 1 on DDB =  2 * 25% * $75, 000

                                               = $37, 500

Depreciation Year 2 on DDB =  2 * 25% * ($75, 000 -$37, 500)

                                               = $18, 750

Calculate the yield to maturity (YTM) for a one-year bond with a purchase price of $8,000, a face value of $10,000, and a curren
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

yield to maturity YTM = 35%

Explanation:

given data

purchase price = $8,000

face value = $10,000

current yield = 10%

solution

we get here yield to maturity YTM

so first we get Annual Coupon by current yield that is express as

Current yield = annual coupon  ÷ current price   ..............1

put here value we get

Annual Coupon = 10 % ×  8,000

Annual Coupon = $800

now we get YTM by purchase price  that is  

purchase price = Annual Coupon ÷ ( 1+YTM ) + face value ÷ ( 1+YTM )  .......2

put here value we get

8,000 =  \frac{800}{1+YTM} +\frac{10000}{1+YTM}

solve it we get

yield to maturity YTM = 35%
