Answer:

The simple rate of return on investment is 17.73%

Explanation:

The simple interest rate of return on the investment can be calculated by the formula given thus:

Simple rate of return=net income/investment

The net income =savings in operating costs less depreciation

Savings in operating costs =$161000

depreciation=cost -salvage value/number of years

Depreciation=468000-0/6=$78000

Net income=$161000-$78000

Net income=$83000

Simple rate of return =83000/468000

                                    =17.73%

Answer:

Simple rate of return = 17.7%

Explanation:

Simple rate of return = incremental operating income ÷ initial investment

Depreciation = $468,000 ÷ 6years = $78,000

incremental operating income = $161,000-$78,000 =$83,000

Simple rate of return = $83,000÷$468,000=17.7%

Cash flow formula = Tuition × (1+0.07)^{n}

Discounted CF formula = Cash flow ÷ (1+0.10)^{year}

Year   Cash flows   Discounted CF

0           33,799.32  33799.32

1          36,165.28  32877.52

2          38,696.84  31980.86

3          41,405.62  31108.66

FV = $129,766.37

PV = 0

N = 18

rate = 10%

using PMT function in Excel

Suppose an early freeze affects the market for oranges. The equilibrium quantity in this market will not change after the change
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

2) perfectly vertical

Explanation:

When the price elasticity of demand is perfectly inelastic, the demand curve is perfectly vertical. This means that the quantity demanded will remain the same no matter what price.

In this scenario, the supply curve for oranges shifted to the left due to the early freeze, which results in a price increase at every level of quantity demanded. Since the demand is perfectly inelastic, the new equilibrium price will be determined by the how much the supply curve shifts.

Orlov [11]

While network evening newscasts have stayed fairly constant throughout the years, the news programs that Americans watch on local television stations and national cable channels have altered substantially in recent years.

<h3>What change has been noticed?</h3>

Local television newscasts have recently emphasized traffic, weather, and sports, even more, aired less edited package stories, and cut the lengths of stories—trends that might be a result of the industry's current economic challenges.

There is a growing fear that local TV news may be suffering some of the financial difficulties that have already hammered the newspaper sector as younger people are tuning out local newscasts.
