Answer:

NPV = $-43246.56103 rounded off to - $43246.56

Explanation:

The Net Present Value or NPV is a tool used to evaluate projects. It is used with various other tools to decide whether to undertake a project or not. To calculate the Net Present Value or NPV, we take the present value of the cash inflows provided by the project and deduct the initial cost of the project.

NPV = CF1 / (1+r)  +  CF2 / (1+r)^2  +  ...  + CFn / (1+r)^n  -  Initial Cost

Where,

  • CF1, CF2, ... represents cash flow in Year 1, Year 2 and so on.
  • r is the required rate of return

NPV = 74000 (1+0.12)  +  74000 (1+0.12)^2  +  74000 (1+0.12)^3  +  74000 (1+0.12)^4  +  74000 (1+0.12)^5  -  310000

NPV = $-43246.56103 rounded off to - $43246.56

A market shortage occurs when:a. the quantity demanded is less than the quantity supplied at a given price. b. the market price
Andreyy89

Answer:

b. the market price is below equilibrium

Explanation:

Markets are at Equilibrium, where market demand = market supply. Market Demand is downward sloping due to price - demand inverse relationship as per law of demand. And, Market Supply is upward sloping due to price - supply direct relationship as per law of supply

When Price is below Equilibrium price : Market demand is more, as it is inversely related with price. And, Market supply is less, as it is directly related with price. So Market Supply is more than Market Supply. This implies Scarcity (Market Shortage), when supply is insufficient to fulfil demand.

This excess demand (or shortage/ scarcity) creates competition among buyers & pushes up the market price.This way; finally, the market price & market quantity resume back to equilibrium level.

An increase in interest rates affects aggregate demand by
KatRina [158]

Answer:

A - shifting the aggregate demand curve to the​ left, reducing real GDP and lowering the price level

D - ​consumption, investment, and net exports​ decrease; aggregate demand decreases.

Explanation:

If interest rates increase, it becomes more expensive to borrow money (since there is a larger amount to be paid back on top of the value of the loan) and more beneficial to save money (since banks will pay more for saving). This means that consumers are less likely to take out loans and more likely to store their money in the bank, leading to a reduction in consumption—less consumer spending, more saving. Likewise with firms, which will be less likely to invest in new capital (because borrowing funds to buy it costs more) and more likely to save profits. This reduction in consumption and investment means that aggregate demand falls, represented in a diagram by a shift to the left.

Thanks
