Answer:

The correct answer would be option C, The price needs to increase.

Explanation:

In order to maintain a balance or equilibrium, there should always be a balance between the quantity demanded and the quantity supplied. If quantity demanded exceeds quantity supplied, it means people are demanding the product more and the supply of that product is not meeting the demand. In this scenario when there is more demand of a product than supply, the price of the product should increase in order to create a balance between the quantity demanded and supplied, because it is the law of demand that when demand increases, the prices of the product also increases and vice versa. So to maintain the equilibrium, the price of the product should increase. In this way demand will decrease and will reach a point where demand will meet the supply of the product.

Two mutually exclusive projects have 3-year lives and a required rate of return of 10.5 percent. Project A costs $75,000 and has

Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

Both projects should be rejected

Explanation:

The internal rate of return is the discount rate that equates the after tax cash flows from an investment to the amount invested.

IRR can be calculated using a financial calculator:

For project A,

Cash flow in year zero = $75,000

Cash flow in year one = $18,500

Cash flow in year two = $42,900

Cash flow in year three = $28,600

IRR = 9.12%

For project B,

Cash flow in year zero = $-72,000

Cash flow in year one = $22,000

Cash flow in year two = $38,000

Cash flow in year three = $26,500

IRR = 9.48%

The decision rule on if to invest or not is if IRR > r

For both investments IRR is less than rate of return

9.12% < 10.50%

9.48% < 10.50%

To find the IRR using a financial calacutor:

1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

2. After inputting all the cash flows, press the IRR button, and the compute button.
