MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

NPV  = $5,926.226

Explanation:

The Net present value (NPV) is the difference between the Present value (PV) of cash inflows and the PV of cash outflows. A positive NPV implies a good and profitable investment project and a negative figure implies the opposite.  

NPV = PV of cash inflows - PV of cash outflows  

PV of annual savings= A×   (1- (1+r)^(-n))/r

r- discount rate- 11%, n- number of years- 5, A- annual savings

    = 10,000 × (1- 1.11)^(-5) )/0.11 = 36,958.97

PV of scrap value = F × (1+r)^(-n)

r- discount rate- 11%, n- number of years- 5, F- salvage value - 5,000

     5,000× (1.11)^(-5)= 2,967.256

NPV =   36,958.97018  + 2,967.256 - 34,000

       = 5,926.226

NPV  = $5,926.226

Luda [366]

Answer:

Empathy

Explanation:

Empathy is the ability of a person of business entity to understand the thoughts, feelings, and emotions of their customers. It is the ability to personalise the customer's situation.

This makes the business go the extra mile in solving the customer's problem.

In this scenario Northwestern mutual felt the pain and understood the financial needs of the families of first responders during the 9-11 attack.

So without official death certificates they paid death benefits only 3 days after the attacks.

Other insurance companies however did not empathise with their customers and only paid death benefits some months to a year.
