Space Fuel Inc. is considering establishing a new propellant depot to provide space vehicles a refueling point in their trek to

Mars. If placed in a LaGrange point, the depot could save $50,000K annually. The depot can be constructed for $200,000K today and will be used for a period of 10 years. It has a salvage value of $10,000K at the end of its useful life. The new depot will require an annual maintenance cost of $9,000K. Capital financing is available at 4.78% per semiannual period compounded monthly. Find the present worth.

Answer:

NPV = $55,894.45

Explanation:

the initial outlay of the project is $200,000

the salvage value is $10,000

useful life 10 years

annual costs $9,000

annual savings $50,000

luckily there are no taxes in space

we must determine the effective interest rate in order to be able to discount the future cash flows

(1 + 0.0478/6)¹² - 1 = 9.99%

the net cash flow per year (for years 1 - 9) = $50,000 - $9,000 = $41,000

net cash flow for year 10 = $41,000 + $10,000 = $51,000

using a financial calculator, the NPV = $55,894.45

You are considering two investment alternatives. The first is a stock that pays quarterly dividends of $0.32 per share and is tr
MrMuchimi

Answer:

The 1-year HPR for the second stock is <u>12.84</u>%. The stock that will provide the better annualized holding period return is <u>Stock 1</u>.

Explanation:

<u>For First stock </u>

Total dividend from first stock = Dividend per share * Number quarters = $0.32 * 2 = $0.64

HPR of first stock = (Total dividend from first stock + (Selling price after six months - Initial selling price per share)) / Initial selling price = ($0.64 + ($31.72 - $27.85)) / $27.85 = 0.1619, or 16.19%

Annualized holding period return of first stock = HPR of first stock * Number 6 months in a year = 16.19% * 2 = 32.38%

<u>For Second stock </u>

Total dividend from second stock = Dividend per share * Number quarters = $0.67 * 4 = $2.68

Since you expect to sell the stock in one year, we have:

Annualized holding period return of second stock = The 1-year HPR for the second stock = (Total dividend from second stock + (Selling price after six months - Initial selling price per share)) / Initial selling price = ($2.68+ ($36.79 - $34.98)) / $34.98 = 0.1284, or 12.84%

Since the Annualized holding period return of first stock of 32.38% is higher than the Annualized holding period return of second stock of 12.84%. the first stock will provide the better annualized holding period return.

The 1-year HPR for the second stock is <u>12.84</u>%. The stock that will provide the better annualized holding period return is <u>Stock 1</u>.

The​ stockholders' equity of Gorsky Company at the beginning and end of 2018 totaled $ 125,000 and $ 131,000​, respectively. Ass
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

The assets at the end of 2018 will be for 222,000

Explanation:

We solve using the accounting equation:

Assets = Liabilities + Equity

2017

Equity 125,000

Assets 145,000

<em>Assets = Liabilities + Equity</em>

145,000 = Liabilities + 125,000

145,000 - 125,000 = Liabilities

Liaiblities = 20,000

2018

Equity 131,000

"Liabilities increase by 71,000"

Liabilities = 2017 + increase = 20,000 + 71,000 = 91,000

<em>Assets = Liabilities + Equity</em>

Assets = 91,000 + 131,000 = 222,000

b. Type I error is incorrectly conclude that the pain is reduced in less than 15 minutes.

c. Type II error is fail to conclude that time for pain reduction is less than 15 mints when actually its less than 15 minutes.

Explanation:

Null hypothesis is a statement that is to be tested against the alternative hypothesis and then decision is taken whether to accept or reject the null hypothesis.

Type I error is one in which we reject a true null hypothesis.

Type II error is one in which we fail to reject the null hypothesis that is actually false.
