Answer:

The Square Box should accept Project B only

Explanation:

Square Box should decide the project whose Net present value (NPV) of future cash inflow is higher than the initial cost of investment

NPV of cash inflow from Project A = 3,000/(1+12%)+7,000/(1+12%)^2+10,000/(1+12%)^3 = $15,377, lower then initial cost of $18,000 → deny Project A

NPV of cash inflow from Project B = 3,000/(1+12%)+7,000/(1+12%)^2+15,000/(1+12%)^3 = $18,936, higher then initial cost of $18,000 → accept Project B

Julli [10]

Answer: The parliament is likely to allocate £ 1,23,93,800.62

We arrive at the answer as follows:

Amount allocated by President Obama    $100,000,000

Amount England wants to contribute        20% of President Obama's allocation

Amount England wants to contribute in USD  =

                                              0.2 * 100,000,000 = USD 2,00,00,000  

Exchange Rate                                      $1. 61371/1 pound sterling

We can read the problem as if $1.61371 is equal to 1 pound sterling, how many pound sterlings are equal to $2,00,00,000?

Let number of pound sterlings be x

So, \frac{1.61371}{1}= \frac{100000000}{x}

x = \frac{100000000}{1.61731}

x = 1,23,93,800.62

When resources are scarce, power differences across subunits are _________; when resources are plentiful, subunit power differen
lilavasa [31]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "A": magnified, reduced.

Explanation:

Scarcity does not only represent individuals having to sacrifice some of their needs to fulfill others because resources are limited. Scarcity can also represent the reason for dispute between social levels. When resources are scarce and one social stratum has more access to it, differences will increase. The opposite happens when the resources are allocated properly between them: differences are likely to be reduced.

A coupon bond that pays interest of 4% annually has a par value of $1,000, matures in 5 years, and is selling today at $785. The
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

Actual Yiel to maturity is 9.3%

Explanation:

Yield to maturity is the annual rate of return that an investor receives if a bond bond is held until the maturity.

Face value = F = $1,000

Coupon payment = $1,000 x 4% = $40

Selling price = P = $785

Number of payment = n = 5 years

Yield to maturity = [ C + ( F - P ) / n ] / [ (F + P ) / 2 ]

Yield to maturity = [ $40 + ( $1,000 - $785 ) / 5 ] / [ ( 1,000 + $785 ) / 2 ]

Yield to maturity = [ $40 + $43 ] / $892.5  = $83 /$892.5 = 0.0645 = 0.093%
