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.

Answer:

With mitigation: NPV =$36,670,000, IRR= 15,24%

Without mitigation: NPV= $ 42,000,000, IRR= 19,86%

Explanation:

To calculate the Net Present Value (NPV) we have to sum the present value of a project´s cash flows (positive and negative cashflows). To do so, we need: the number of periods of the project, the discount rate, cost of captal or WACC, and the future values of the cash flows. Then we apply the formula attached.

To calculate the Internal Rate of Return (IRR) we have to find the discount rate, cost of capital or WACC that makes the NPV equal to cero. That means we have to find a rate in which the investor do not create or destroy value, only recovers the investment. I attached the formula.

But, this is better if we use excel:

First we copy the cash flows of the two projects. To find the NPV we use the financial formula "NPV" in this way:

"=NPV(rate;cash flows from year 1 to year 5)+ cash flow of year 0"

To find the IRR we use the financial formula "IRR" in this way:

"=IRR(cash flows from year 0 to year 5)"

I attached the excel figure.

Eleni's landscaping company placed two orders. *The first order was for 13 bushes and 4 trees and totaled $487. *The second orde

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

Price of One Bush is $ 23

Explanation:

Suppose

bushes = B

trees = T

According to given condition:

13B + 4T = 487 (Eq: 1)

6B + 2T = 232 (Eq: 2)

Multiplying (Eq: 2) by 2

12B + 4T = 464 (Eq: 3)

Substractign (Eq: 3) from (Eq: 1)

13B + 4T - (12B + 4T) = 487 - 464

13B + 4T - 12B - 4T = 23

B = 23

By putting value of B in (Eq: 1)

(13 x 23) + 4T = 487

299 + 4T = 487

4T = 487 - 299

4T = 188

T = 188 / 4

T = 47

Price of One Bush = B = 23
