Answer:

Simple. When you listen, you put an effort in to it. It is a conscious mental process where you direct you will power. Whereas hearing is all about you being NOT deaf (haha!) more technically Hearing means the ability to perceive sounds. Often, this is an unconscious mental process.

Explanation:

As we understood in the answer, there are two types of mental activities. Conscious and Unconscious. Conscious ones are those you put an effort to, like reading a book, studying, playing a video game, etc. Listening is like this. your attention and focus is on during listening!

Unconscious mental processes are those that you don't put an effort to and often happens even without you noticing that they are happening. hearing is one such thing, the faculty of perceiving the sound.

Answer:

there is one difference between listening and hearing

Explanation:

Hearing is simply the act of perceiving sound by the ear. If you are not hearing-impaired, hearing simply happens. Listening, however, is something you consciously choose to do. Listening requires concentration so that your brain processes meaning from words and sentences.

andriy [413]

Answer:

The answers are:

  1. automobile insurers
  2. life insurance companies
  3. a life insurance policy
  4. longer
  5. longer-term

Explanation:

When a company may need money in a short notice (like auto insurers), they will need to make liquid investments. That means that they can turn their investments into cash very rapidly. Since T-bills are traded all the time, they are very liquid investments, although they aren't very lucrative investments.

On the other hand, companies that know that they will not be needing a lot money promptly (life insurance), can afford to invest in projects with a longer life span that can be more profitable also. Usually liquid investments have smaller rates of return, while long term investments have higher rates of return.

Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

a. 4.92 years

b. NPV = $26,770.20

c. 1.0837

d. IRR = 12.26%

e. 15.6%

the project should be accepted

Explanation:

Payback calculates the amount of time it takes to recover the amount invested in a project from it cumulative cash flows

Payback period =  Amount invested / cash flow = $320,000  / $65,000 = 4.92 years

Net present value is the present value of after tax cash flows from an investment less the amount invested.    

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

NPV and IRR can be calculated using a financial calculator

Cash flow in year 0 = $-320,000

Cash flow each year from year 1 to 8 = $65,000

I = 10%

NPV = $26,770.20

IRR = 12.26%

profitability index = 1 + (NPV / Initial investment) = 1 + ($26,770.20 / $320,000 ) = 1.0837

The project should be accepted because the NPV and profitability index are positive. the IRR is greater than the discount rate. this means that the project is profitable. Accounting rate of return = Average net income / Average book value

Average book value = (cost of equipment - salvage value) / 2 = $320,000 / 2 = $160,000

$25,000 / $160,000 = 0.156 = 15.6%

To find the NPV using a financial calculator:

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 NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.  

3. Press compute  

To find the IRR using a financial calculator:

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 then press the compute button.

"You need to have $15,000 in five years to pay off a home equity loan. You can invest in an account that pays 5.75 percent compo
Nana76 [90]

Answer:

I have to invest $11364.

Explanation:

The formula of Compound Interest is:

A = P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}

where A = Amount

P = Principle

r = rate

n = Number of Compounding per year

t = total number of year

Here, A = 15000, r = 5.75% = 0.0575, n = 4(quarterly), and t = 5.

Putting all these values in above formula:

15000 = P(1+\frac{0.0575}{4})^{4\times5}

⇒ 15000 = P(\frac{4.0575}{4})^{20}

⇒ 15000 = P(1.014)^{20}

⇒ 15000 = P(1.320)}

⇒ P = 11364

Hence, I have to invest $11364 for 5 years.

Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

The correct answer is option a.

Explanation:

The price elasticity of demand shows the responsiveness of quantity demanded to change in price. It is measured by the ratio of proportionate change in quantity demanded and proportionate change in price.

Unit price elastic means that the price elasticity of the good is 1. This implies that the percentage change in quantity demanded must be equal to the percentage change in price.
