Answer:

Prescriptive analytics

Explanation:

Prescriptive Analytics refers to the data analytics field that specializes on determining the best approach in a situation, based on the data accessible. It is linked towards both descriptive analytics as well as predictive analytics yet highlights valuable insights rather than data analysis.

Prescriptive analytics collects information with its systems from either a range of descriptive or predictive databases and relates it to the choice-making process. It involves mixing existing conditions with alternative actions to evaluate how well the outcome would be influenced by each.

It can also assess the effects of judgment, based on various potential future situations. The discipline draws inspiration from applied mathematics, using a number of statistical techniques to construct and re-create potential judgment trends that could have different effects on an entity.

Answer:

The correct answer is:

(1) $15,054

(2) $12,990

Explanation:

The required table is not given in the question. Please find below the attachment of the table.

Given:

Future value,

= $30,000

If discounting rate is 9%, the present value will be:

= $Future \ value\times PV \ factor(9 \ percent, 8 \ years)$

= $30000\times (\frac{1}{1.09} )^8$

= $30000\times 0.5018$

= $15,054$ ($)

If discounting rate is 11%, the present value will be:

= $Future \ value\times PV \ factor(11 \ percent, 8 \ years)$

= $30000\times (\frac{1}{1.11} )^6$

= $30000\times 0.433$

= $12,990$ ($)

Apple Google

Market price per share a $154.12 $1046.4

Basic EPS b 9.26754 18.26999

Price earning ratio a ÷ b 16.63 57.27

5) A higher PE ration indicates that investors want to pay a higher share price because of growth expectation in near by future

Therefore Google has higher PE ratio

Hence, investors have greater expectation of performance of Google in future.

Under which circumstance might you receive a tax refund from the irs

Nikolay [14]

<span>You would receive a tax refund from the IRS if you paid too much in taxes versus what your net income was during the year. The taxes owed is less than what was paid to the IRS during the year. If you receive credits for what you are able to deduct from your net income, then you will be able to receive money back at the end of the year for over paying during the year.</span>

jolli1 [7]

Answer:

-3 million dollars

Explanation:

we have EVA = economic value added

to ge the EVA, we use this formula :

(operating return on the assets - cost of the total capital) multiplied by the total assets

total assets = 100 million

operating return = 12 percent

cost of capital = 15 percent

the EVA = 12% - 15% * 100000000

= -0.03 * 100000000

= -3,000,000 dollars
