A marketing company wants to estimate the proportion of consumers in a certain region of the country who would react favorably t

Sindrei [870]

The closest to the minimum number of consumers needed to obtain the estimate with the desired precision is (b) 271

Explanation:

When the prior estimate of population proportion is not given , then the formula to find the sample size is given by :-

$n=0.25(\frac{z^{*} }{E} )^{2}$

where E = Margin of error.

z* = Critical z-value.

As per given , we have

E = 5%=0.05

Confidence level = 90%

The critical value of z at 90% is 1.645 (By z-table)

Put all values in the formula , we get

n=0.25(1.645/0.05)²

n=0.25(32.9)²

n=270.6025≈271

Thus, the minimum sample size needed = 271

Hence , the correct answer is 271 .

baherus [9]

Answer:

NPV: $180,285.49

IRR: 21.336%

simple rate of return: 72.13%

Explanation:

6,100,000 investment

contribution margin 3,000,000

fixed expense: <u> 900,000 </u>

EBITA 2,100,000

We will calculate the NPV without the depreciation, as the depreciation is the distribution of the investment cost over the project life.

If we include the depreciation we will be counting the investment amount twice. Entirely at Time 0 and then subtracting on each cash inflow.

We will calculate the NPV at 20% as is the company's discount rate. Even if the current division returns are in 24% as the company accepts project which yields 20%.

$C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\$

C 2,100,000

time 5 years

rate 20% = 20/100 = 0.2

$2100000 \times \frac{1-(1+0.2)^{-5} }{0.2} = PV\\$

PV $6,280,285.49

NPV = PV of cash inflow - investment

6,280,285.49 - 6,100,000 = 180,285.49

<u>the IRR:</u>

The internal rate of return is the rate at which the NPV of a priject is zero.

We calculate this using excel formula IRR

or a financial calculator

it could also be done with trial and error using the PV tables.

<u>I will explain you in Excel</u>

FIrst, you write the inflow and outflow per year:

-6,100,000

2,100,000

2,100,000

2,100,000

2,100,000

2,100,000

then we write on another cell:

=IRR(

then, select the cells

and press enter

21.336%

<u>the simple rate of return:</u>

(total return - investment) / investment

(2,100,000 x 5 - 6,100,000) / 6,100,000 =

4,400,000 / 6,100,000 = 0.721311475 = 72.13%

Elenna [48]

Answer:

The profit for an investor who has $500,000 available to conduct locational arbitrage is $1,639.

Explanation:

Bank A has a ask rate of $0.305, so the investor can exchange his $500,000 at Bank A and get = $500,000/$.305 = MYR = 1,639,344

Bank B has a bid rate of $0.306, he can invest 1,639,344= 1,639,344 × $.306 = $501,639.

501,639 - $500,000 = $1,639.

Thus, the profit is $1,639.

dexar [7]

Answer:

The simple rate of return on the investment is closest to 19.16%

Explanation:

In order to calculate the the simple rate of return on the investment we would have to use the following formula:

simple rate of return = <u>Annual incremental net operating income</u>

Initial investment

<u />

Initial investment = Cost of the new machine - salvage value of old machine

Initial investment = $384,000 - $24,000 = $360,000

Annual cost savings = $133,000

Annual depreciation = $384,000/6 = $64,000

Therefore, Annual incremental net operating income = $133,000 - $64,000 = $69,000

Therefore, simple rate of return = $69,000 / $360,000 = 19.16%

The simple rate of return on the investment is closest to 19.16%
