Answer:
Explanation:
Dividends through year 1 to 5:
D1 = 2.15*(1+0.30)^1 = 2.80
D2 = 2.15*(1+0.30)^2 = 3.63
D3 = 2.15*(1+0.30)^2 * (1+0.18)^1 = 4.29
D4 = 2.15*(1+0.30)^2 * (1+0.18)^2 = 8.58
D5 = 2.15*(1+0.30)^2 * (1+0.18)^3 = 12.86
PV (D1) = 2.80
PV (D2) = 3.63 *PVIF = 3.63 * 0.87719 = 3.19
PV (D3) = 4.29 * 0.76947 = 3.30
PV (D4) = 8.58 * 0.67497 = 5.79
PV (D5) = 12.86 * 0.59208 = 7.62
Total of all PV's = 22.69
 
        
             
        
        
        
Not all resources of a given type are identical: Customers differ in size and profitability, staff differ in experience, and so on. This chapter will show you the following:
how to assess the quality of your resources
how resources bring with them potential access to others
how you can improve resource quality
how to upgrade the quality of an entire strategic architecture
6.1 Assessing the Quality of Resources
Few resources are as uniform as cash: Every dollar bill is the same as all the others. Most resources, however, vary in important ways:
Customers may be larger or smaller, highly profitable or less so.
Products may appeal to many customers or few, and satisfy some, many, or all of their needs.
Staff may have more experience or less, and cost you high salaries or low.
A single resource may even carry several characteristics that influence how the resource stock as a whole affects other parts of the system. Individual bank customers, for example, feature different balances in their accounts, different numbers of products they use from the bank, different levels of risk of defaulting on loans, and so on. A resource attribute is a characteristic that varies between different items in a single pool of resources. These differences within each type of resource will themselves change through time. For example, if we lose our most profitable customers our operating profits will fall faster than if we lose only average customers.

Answer: $13.25
Explanation:
From the question, we are informed that an oral auction has bidders willing to pay $4, $6, $9, $12, $13, and $15 for an item. 
Based on the above scenario, the winning bidder will pay a little more than $13 or $13.25. This is because the bidder with the highest pay is willing to pay $15 but since the next person is willing to pay $13, that means the next bidder will price it at an amount that is a little bit above $13 which is $13.25.
