Both petroleum and coal are made up of complex carbon-based molecules, and both originated with living creatures of some kind. B

oth are vital sources of energy for the modern world and both were formed by geologic processes over millions of years. However, petroleum was mainly formed from the remains of ocean-dwelling microorganisms. Coal, on the other hand, originated from decayed vegetation in ancient swamps and bogs. In any case, it took millions of years for both coal and oil to be produced. This is the case because it took that much time for overlying sediments to produce the unimaginable heat and pressure that would one day allow us to harvest these energy resources.

Net Present Value Method
arsen [322]

Answer:

year               net cash flow

0                     -$150,000

1                        $80,000

2                       $65,000

3                       $50,000

4                       $40,000

A) NPV = -$150,000 + ($80,000 x .87) + ($65,000 x .756) + ($50,000 x .658) + ($40,000 x .572) = -$150,000 + $69,600 + $49,140 + $32,900 + $22,880 = -$150,000 + $174,520 = $24,520

B) Yes , because the net present value indicates that the return on the proposal is greater than the minimum desired rate of return of 15%. Since the NPV is positive ($24,520), it means that the cash inflows are higher than the cash outflows when we use a 15% discount rate.

In 2009, the imaginary nation of Viloxia had a population of 5,000 and real GDP of 500,000. In 2010 it had a population of 5,100
Rashid [163]

The correct answer is A. During 2009 real GDP in Viloxia grew by 2 percent, which is about the same as average U.S. growth over the last one-hundred years.

Given that in 2009, the imaginary nation of Viloxia had a population of 5,000 and real GDP of 500,000, and in 2010 it had a population of 5,100 and real GDP of 520,200, to determine the growth of real GDP in Viloxia during 2009, the the following calculations must be made:

  • Total GDP / population = real GDP
  • 500,000 / 5000 = X
  • 100 = X
  • 520,200 / 5100 = X
  • 102 = X
  • 102 - 100 = 2

Therefore, during 2009 Viloxia's GDP grew by 2 percent, which is about the same as average U.S. growth over the last one-hundred years.

s2008m [1.1K]

Options :

A)net present value of the $25,000.

B)future value of the $25,000.

C)internal rate of the return on the $25,000.

D)present value of $25,000.

Answer: B)future value of the $25,000.

Explanation: The Smith's calculation and subsequent result which yielded $31,000 refers to the future value of $25,000. The initial $25000 is the present value of the amount held. If the initial amount is saved or deposited over a certain number of years in an account which yields a certain rate of interest per annum and is compounded either on a monthly, yearly, quarterly or semiannual basis as the case may be, in this scenario above, the interest is called mounded annually. This initial amount will grow and yield an amount which is greater than the present deposit. This is called the future value of the initial deposit.
