That is the main reason why mutual funds charge higher fees than index funds.</em>

Answer:

Year Cashflow        [email protected]% PV

$                      $

0 (750,000)             1          (750,000)

1        350,000               0.9259    324,065

2       325,000               0.8573     278,623

3        250,000              0.7938      198.450

4        180,000               0.7350      132,300

                                        NPV         184,438

The correct answer is D. The difference in answers is due to rounding error.

Explanation:

Net present value is the diffrence between initial outlay and present value of inflow. We need to discount the cash inflows for year 1 to year 4 at 8% and then calculate the present value of cash inflows by multiplying the cash inflows by the discount factors. Finally, we will calculate NPV by deducting the initial outlay from the present value of cash inflows.

In its statement of cash flows issued for the year ending September 30, Berne Company reported a net cash inflow from operating
Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

B. $29,000

Explanation:

The cashflow from operating activities is calculated as below:

Cashflow from operating activities = Net income + Depreciation - Working capital investment

                                                          = Net income + Depreciation - (Change in inventories + Change in account receivables - Change in account payables)

Putting all the number together, we have:

123,000 = Net income + 38,000 - [(-27,000) + 31,000 - 48,000 - 12,000),

Solve the equation we get Net income = 29,000.

IRINA_888 [86]

Answer and Explanation:

According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follow:-

1) Semiannually Rate of interest = 11% ÷ 2 = 5.50% = 0.055

Number of years (half yearly) = 4 × 2 = 8 years

PVIF Value = 1 ÷ (1 + Interest Rate)^Number of years

=1 ÷ (1 + 0.055)^8

= 1 ÷ 1.5347

= 0.65160

PVIFA Value = [1 -1 ÷ (1 + Interest Rate)^Number of years ÷  Interest Rate

= [1 - 1 ÷ (1 + 0.055)^8]  ÷ 0.055

= [1 - 0.65160] ÷ 0.055

= 6.33457

Particular  PV table value Multiply Amount  ($) PV value

Principle value  0.65160 × 640,000                          $417,024

Annually interest Value 6.33 ×     32,000                          $202,706
