(a)    The mean lifetime of an individual

Rate= 2.5 age it dies= 196 E [Xi](which we need to compute for the year) is equal to 196(0.4)=78.4 years

(b)   The variance of the lifetime off an individual

Rate=2.5 age it dies= 1[Xi] (which is needed to compute the variance) is equal to 196(0.16)=31.36 years.

Service products cannot generally be produced in ________or __________. Services are typically _________________________________
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

Service products cannot generally be produced in advance or stored.

Services are typically variable, and in almost every service offering, the service cannot start until the customer arrives and actively participates.

Explanation:

Services have distinguishing characteristics that differentiate them  from goods.

To start with, services cannot be produced in advance as production and consumption happen at the same time.

Also,the customer must be present and actively contributes to the delivery of the service, for instance, haircut cannot happen except the customer comes to the salon and obeys the instructions of the barber as they go along.

Besides,there is no physical substance in service unlike purchase of goods.

Daves Inc. recently hired you as a consultant to estimate the company's WACC. You have obtained the following information: the f
levacccp [35]

Answer:

Explanation:

First, find the YTM of the bond (rD), you can do this with a financial calculator using the following inputs;

Maturity of the bond : N = 20

Annual coupon payment; PMT = 8%*1000 = 80

Face value; FV = 1000

Price of the bond ; PV = -1,050

then CPT I/Y = 7.51% (this is the Pretax cost of debt; the rD)

Next, find the cost of equity (rE) using CAPM;

CAPM; r = risk free + beta (Market risk premium)

rE = 0.0450 + 1.20(0.0550)

rE = 0.0450 + 0.066

= 0.111 or 11.1%

Next, WACC formula = wE*rE + wD*rD(1-tax) whereby;

w = weight of..

rD= pretax cost of debt

WACC = (0.65*0.111) + [0.35*0.0751(1-0.40) ]

WACC = 0.07215 + 0.015771

= 0.0879

Therefore, WACC = 8.79%

Lorico [155]

Answer:

Present Value= $14,285.71

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

You are thinking of building a new machine that will save you $1,000 in the first year.

The machine will then begin to wear out so that the savings decline at a rate of 2 % per year forever.

Interest rate= 5%

We need to use the formula of a perpetual annuity. Because of the wear out, we need to sum it to the interest rate the 2%

PV= Cf/(i-wear put)

PV= 1,000 / (0.05 + 0.02)= $14,285.71
