Answer: Option D

Explanation: Annuity refers to the payments made by an individual to another at equal intervals of time. And perpetuity refers to an annuity that has no end.

Hence the correct option is D. As in first two options the amount of payment will increase. Also in the last option the payments are made forever and equally so it is a perpetual annuity.

Compute the two-year nominal interest rate using the exact formula and the approximation formula for each set of assumptions lis

gregori [183]

Answer:

a) 2.5%

b) 6%

c) 3.5%

Explanation:

The Formula to be used is the <em>habitat hypothesis </em>

as stated in the document attached below

a) it = 2%; it+1 =3%

$i_{2,t}$ = 0 + ( 2 + 3 ) / 2

= 2.5% ( two year nominal interest rate )

b) it = 2%; it+1+1 = 10%

$i_{2,t}$ = 0 + ( 2 + 10 ) / 2

= 6% ( two year nominal interest rate )

c) it = 2%; 1t+1 = 3%. ∝₂,t = 1%

$i_{2,t}$ = 1 + ( 2 + 3 ) / 2

= 1 + 2.5 = 3.5%

A corporation makes an investment of $20,000 that will provide the following cash flows after the corresponding amounts of time:

s344n2d4d5 [400]

A) The company should not invest in the provided project due to the negative NPV of the project.

B) The NPV of the project comes out to be (286).

NPV is an abbreviated form of Net present value and computed by deducting the cash outflows from cash inflows at the present value.

Given values:

Cash flow of year 1: $10,000

Cash flow of year 2: $10,000

Cash flow of year 3: $2,000

Cash outflow (cost of investment) =$20,000

Step-1 Computation of PV of cash inflows of every year:

PV of year 1 = Cash inflow of year 1 / (1+ interest rate)^ 1

= $10,000 / (1+0.07) ^ 1

= $10,000 X 0.934579

= $9,346

PV of year 2 = Cash inflow of year 1 / (1+ interest rate)^ 2

= $10,000 / (1+0.07) ^ 2

= $10,000 X 0.873438

= $8,735

PV of year 3= Cash inflow of year 1 / (1+ interest rate)^ 3

= $2,000 / (1+0.07) ^ 2

= $2,000 X 0.816297

=$1,633

Step-2 Computation of total amount of PV of cash inflows:

$\rm\ PV \rm\ of \rm\ cash \rm\ inflows = \rm\ PV \rm\ of \rm\ year \rm\ 1 + \rm\ PV \rm\ of \rm\ year \rm\ 2 + \rm\ PV \rm\ of \rm\ year \rm\ 3\\\rm\ PV \rm\ of \rm\ cash \rm\ inflows =\$9,346 + \$8,735 + \$1,633\\\rm\ PV \rm\ of \rm\ cash \rm\ inflows =\$19,714$

Step-3 Computation of NPV:

$\rm\ NPV=\rm\ PV \rm\ of \rm\ cash \rm\ inflows- \rm\ Cost \rm\ of \rm\ investment\\\rm\ NPV=\$19,714-\$20,000\\\rm\ NPV=\$ (286)$

Therefore, the NPV comes out to be a negative amount of 286, and hence, the company should not accept the project.

olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

Note: The correct option is a. Increase Net Cash from operations.

Explanation:

Note: This question is not complete as the options are omitted. The options are therefore provided to complete the question before answering the question as follows:

a. Increase Net Cash from operations

b. Decrease Net Cash from operations on the Cash Flow Statement

c. No impact on Net Cash from operations

d. Just impact the Balance Sheet

The explanation of the answers is now provided as follows:

Since the assets was purchased early in the year, depreciation will be charged on it in the income statement for the year at the end of the year. Since depreciation is a non-cash item, it will added back to the net income in the indirect Cash Flow Statement method as one of the adjustments to the net income under the Cash from operations. This adding back of the depreciation will therefore lead to an Increase Net Cash from operations.

Therefore, the correct option is a. Increase Net Cash from operations.

Gemiola [76]

Answer:

Individual Cost Shares to be enjoyed

Mabel $10,000 10000 / 150000 = 6.67%

Gertrude $20000 20000 / 150000 = 13.3%

Myron $30000 30000 / 150000 = 20%

Wilber $40000 40000 / 150000 = 26.6%

You $50000 50000 / 150000 = 33.3%

Explanation:

peaked preferences

Most preferred value to spend :

Mabel = $10,000

Gertrude = $20,000

Myron = $30,000

Wilber = $40,000

you = $50,000

cost of Condo = $150,000

<u>Implementing a Uniform rule mechanism to allocate costs and shares </u>

The uniform rule ; ∑ j∈I Uj (p) = Ω.

where Ω = fixed amount of resource

hence the summation of all allotment should = Ω ( $150,000 )

Number of friends = 5

cost of condo = $150,000

If divide equally each person will have to pay ; $150,000 / 5 = $30,000

Total money to be spent by friends = 10,000 + 20,000 + 30,000 + 40,000 + 50,000 = $150,000

Individual Cost shares to be enjoyed

Mabel $10,000 10000 / 150000 = 6.67∑%

Gertrude $20000 20000 / 150000 = 13.3%

Myron $30000 30000 / 150000 = 20%

Wilber $40000 40000 / 150000 = 26.6%

You $50000 50000 / 150000 = 33.3%

∑shares ≈ 100% ( 150,000 )
