Acme Co. is considering a four-year project that will require an initial investment of $9,000. The base-case cash flows for this

project are projected to be $14,000 per year. The best-case cash flows are projected to be $21,000 per year, and the worst-case cash flows are projected to be –$2,500 per year. The company’s analysts have estimated that there is a 50% probability that the project will generate the base-case cash flows. The analysts also think that there is a 25% probability of the project generating the best-case cash flows and a 25% probability of the project generating the worst-case cash flows.

Answer:

See below.

Explanation:

We compute the expected return of the projects taking in to account all the probabilities and comparing the results to initial outlay.

Expected return = Probability * return

Expected return = 14,000*0.5 + 21,000*0.25 + (-2500*0.25)

Expected return = $11,625

Since the expected return of the investment is more that the initial out lay of $9,000 by $2,625, the project should be accepted and invested in.

Hope that helps.

You are climbing a stair case. It takes n steps to reach to the top. Each time you can either climb 1 or 2 steps. In how many di
lyudmila [28]

Answer:

(n^2 + n)/2 ways

Explanation:

Each time you can climb 1 or 2 steps to the top (n steps)

Number of ways climbing 1 step to the top = n combination 1 = n!/(n-1)1! = n(n-1)!/(n-1)! = n

Number of ways climbing 2 steps to the top = n combination 2 = n!/(n-2)!2! = n(n-1)(n-2)!/2(n-2)! = (n^2 - n)/2

Total number of ways = n + (n^2 - n)/2 = (2n + n^2 - n)/2 = (n^2 + n)/2 ways

olasank [31]

Answer: b. $188,800 Blackwelder Company will allocates $188,800 to desk lamp production if the actual direct hours is 118,000.

We have the following:

Total Plant Overhead = $640,000

Total Estimated Direct labour hours = 400,000 hours

Actual labour hours for desk lamp = 118, 000 hours

Overhead allocation rate = \frac{Total overhead}{Total estimated direct labor hours}

Overhead allocation rate = \frac{640,000}{400,000}

Overhead Allocation Rate =  $1.6

Factory overhead allocated = Overhead allocation Rate * Actual labour hours [/tex] [tex] Factory overhead allocated = $188,800 (1.6 * 118,000)
