Answer:

Project 1

Explanation:

The computation of the payback period is shown below:

As we know that

Payback period = Initial investment ÷ Net cash flow

For project 1

The payback period would be

= $60,000 ÷ $20,000

= 3 years

For project 2

The payback period would be

= $80,000 ÷ $20,000

= 4 years

Based on the payback period, project 1 should be chosen as the initial amount would be recovered in 3 years instead of 4 years shown in project 2

Answer:

D) The extra energy benefits Patrick gets from another can are no longer worth the cost. MB/MC (S)

Explanation:

The optimal quantity for Patrick to consume is 5 cans of GreenCow.

This is the quantity where MARGINAL BENEFIT EQUALS MARGINAL COST. For all quantities up to the 5th, the marginal benefit is higher than the marginal cost. This means that Patrick's net benefit is increasing, and consuming all units up to this point make him better off.

If Patrick were to consume any more than 5 cans of GreenCow, the cost of each additional can would be higher than the additional benefit (because the marginal cost curve is higher than the marginal benefit curve). Consuming any cans beyond the 5th, therefore, makes him worse off.

An asset has an average return of 10.94 percent and a standard deviation of 20.98 percent. What range of returns should you expe
valkas [14]

If the standard deviation is 20.98%. The range you should expect to see with a 95 percent probability is: -31.02 percent to +52.9 percent.

<h3>Expected range of return </h3>

Expected range of return = 10.94 percent ± 2(20.98 percent)

Expected range of return =[10.94 percent- 2(20.98 percent)]; [10.94 percent + 2(20.98 percent)]

Expected range of return =(10.94 percent- 41.96 percent); (10.94 percent + 41.96 percent

Expected range of return = -31.02 percent to +52.9 percent

Inconclusion the range of returns is: -31.02 percent to +52.9 percent.

Factory X manufactures steam cleaners for engines and has a high level of sales variability. The units sell for $3,200 each but
Scilla [17]

Answer:

a. Some examples of fixed costs are; Insurance, utility charges, and Rent.

b. Variable cost=$1,280

c. Fixed costs=$1,000,000

d. Break-even level of units=521 units

e. Break-even level of sales=$1,667,200

Explanation:

a.

Fixed costs are the expenses that do not change with the level of output, while the variable costs depend on the amount of output produced. The fixed costs typically stay the same with the production levels. The variable costs on the other hand change as the production changes.

Some examples of fixed costs in a typical manufacturing plant are;

1. Insurance

2. Utility charges

3. Rent

4. Property taxes

b.

The variable costs are the Material and labor costs, since a higher or a lower level of output will affect the quantity of materials and labor needed. Thus their costs change with the output.

Variable cost=material cost+labor costs=$1,280

c.

The fixed costs=$1,000,000 since they don't vary with the sales. Sales is a direct function of the output.

d. The break even point is the point at which the Revenue from sales equal the costs. This can be expressed as;

Revenue=price per unit×number of units sold

where;

price per unit=$3,200

number of units sold=n

replacing;

Revenue=3,200×n=3,200 n

Total cost=fixed cost+(cost per unit×number of units)

fixed cost=$1,000,000

cost per unit=$1,280

number of units=n

replacing;

Total costs=1,000,000+(1,280×n)=1,280 n+1,000,000

Since at break-even point, revenue equals cost;

3,200 n=1,280 n+1,000,000

3,200 n-1,280 n=1,000,000

1,920 n=1,000,000

n=1,000,000/1,920

n=520.83

n=521

Number of units is approximately 521 at break-even

Break-even level of units=521 units

e.

Break-even sales=price per unit×break-even level of units

where;

price per unit=$3,200

break-even level of units=521 units

replacing;

Break-even level of sales=3,200×521=$1,667,200

In many countries entrepreneurs and other business leaders, eager to protect their property rights and ensure the dispassionate
denpristay [2]

Answer:

C) democratic reforms

Explanation:

One of the things I remember when I was a little kid was watching action movies with my father and many of them had a common hero, an American soldier or spy (and James Bond even though he is British), and a common enemy, the Soviet Union or some other communist country.

That was very in the late 80s and early 90s, and probably much earlier. The world was divided into two sides, the side that favored liberty and freedom (the US) and the communist evil nations.

In economic terms, communism and command economies meant that the government controlled most of a country's resources. This had a negative effect in that only politicians and their allies lived well and were rich, while the rest of the population was poor.

But then president Reagan and premier Gorbachev got together and decided that it was time for all the nonsense to stop, and the Berlin Wall fell, the Soviet Union split up and luckily for all (except James Bond and other heroes), communism ended.

The fall of communist led to democratic and capitalistic reforms.
