Answer:

B. 3.21

Explanation:

The Cumulative net present value (npv) as indicated in the question has been converted from negative to positive in Year 4, therefore we can assess that the Projected B has completed its pay back period during  Year 4.

Based on above discussion, the discounted pay back period shall be calculated using the following way:

Discounted pay back period=3+Cumulative npv at Year 3/present value of Year 4 cash flow

Discounted pay back period=3+(221.93/1067.30)

                                               =3.21 years

So the answer is B. 3.21

motikmotik

Answer:

Irrational decision

Explanation:

Irrational decisions refer to those decisions which are not taken after enough deliberation, ignore the rationale, facts and logic, are rather decided out of whim and impulse and usually instantly decided.

In the given case, Joe was not willing to pay more than $500 cash yet eventually ended up paying $600. Even if the $25 gift card is considered, he ended up paying $575 which is more than he had decided to pay.

The choice of the consumer here is not rational or rather irrational since, he without considering other alternatives or exercise of judgement, without evaluating his costs, impulsively opted for the credit card lured by $25 gift card.

As per the economic theory, Joe's decision would be referred to as irrational.
