Answer: An investment that matures in five years

Explanation:

Both investments may be of equal risks, but by virtue of having different maturity dates, they will not be priced the same.

This is because the discount rate (opportunity cost) will discount the maturity value more the longer the investment is such that the present value is lower.

4 year investment

= 1,000 / (1.068)^4

= $768.63

5 year investment

= 1,000 / (1.068)^5

= $719.69

The 5 year investment will have a lower present value and will be charged lower.

the toyota production system identified which of the following types of waste to be eliminated? multiple choice product defects.
creativ13 [48]

the Toyota production system identified product defects types of waste to be eliminated.

The manufacturing process used by Toyota Motor Corporation to produce its vehicles is frequently referred to as a "lean manufacturing system" or a "Just-in-Time (JIT) system," and it is now well known and extensively researched.

The Toyota Production System (TPS) was developed based on two ideas: "jidoka" (loosely translated as "automation with a human touch"), whereby when a problem arises, the machinery immediately stops, preventing the production of defective goods; and the "Just-in-Time" idea, whereby each process only produces what is required for the subsequent process in a continuous flow.

For Toyota, jidoka signifies that anytime an irregularity happens, a machine must stop in a safe manner.
