Answer:

The benefit cost ratio is 1.564

Explanation:

The benefit-cost ratio is the ratio of the present value of benefits to the present value of costs. It is thus calculated as follows.

Benefit-cost ratio = Present value of benefits / Present value of costs

Present value of costs = $20,000 + $2,500 (P/A, 10%, 10 years)

                                     = $20,000 + $15,361

                                     = $35,361

Present value of benefits = $9,000 (P/A, 10%, 10 years)

                                          = $9,000 x 6.145

                                          = $55,305

Benefit-cost ratio = $55,305 / $35,361

                             = 1.564

alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

b. $750 and $500 

Explanation:

The reserves is the amount of deposit required by the Central bank that banks should keep as reserves.

The excess reserve is the amount left after the reserve has been taken from the deposit.

If deposit is $750 and the reserve ratio is 331/3%, the amount of reserves is 0.333 × 750 =$250

Excess reserve = $750 - $250 = $500

But the bank sent $750 as reserves, so the reserve increases by $750 and the excess reserve increases by $500

I hope my answer helps you.

Setler [38]

Answer:

$4.64

Explanation:

The total gains for a stock can be broadly classified as both capital gains and dividend gains The capital gain depends on the price of market of the stock prevailing at the time the stock is purchased and the time of the stock sales. For a given firm, dividend gain depends on the dividend policy  

From the question given, let us analyze the following,

the expected capital gain value calculated from the sale of the given stock is   The current stock value is given by:

(price of the stock after a year + the expected dividend) / capital equity cost

($70 + $1.25) / (1+9%)

= $71.25/1.09 = 65.36  

Then,

The capital gain expected from the sale of the stock is given by:

 Expected selling price after a year -the stock current value

 $70 - $65.36

= $4.64
