Answer:
Differential cost
Explanation:
Differential cost is defined as variance in cost that will be incurred between two courses of action. This is used to evaluate the best option of two investments under consideration.
The option that has more revenue will have less cost. So differential cost calculation is used to determine line of action that will bring least cost.
For example if one alternative action will entail use of a warehouse of $30,000, and the alternative is to use just in time inventory practice thereby requiring $10,000 in storage cost.
The best option is the just in time option
Answer: Behavioural ecology.
Explanation:
Behavioural ecology is the study of how individuals behaves and interacts with each other within a particular society or community coupled with their evolutionary trend, this study looks into how a given population cooperates and competes with each other and how it affects evolutionary fitness in species. The study of behavioural ecology helps one to understand biological adaptation, how and where organism gets their food and how they escape from their preys, how they cope with unfavourable conditions, reasons why they migrate, etc.

Answer:
PV(after-tax net return in 7th year) = 70.55 (Approx)
Explanation:
Given:
Number of year = 7
Pre-tax net returns (Fn) = $100
Growth rate = 4% = 0.04
Inflation = 3% = 0.03
Marginal tax rate = 30% = 0.3
Discount rate = 10% = 0.1
Computation:
Fn = Fo(1+g)ⁿ = 100(1.04)⁷
Fn = 131.6
Nominal net returns = 131.6(1.03)⁷
Nominal net returns = 161.85
After tax return = 161.85 (1 - 0.3)
After tax return = 113.30
After-tax, risk adjusted discount rate = 0.1(1-0.3) = 7%
PV(after-tax net return in 7th year) = 113.30
(1+0.07)⁻⁷
PV(after-tax net return in 7th year) = 70.55 (Approx)
Answer:
e) $37.05
Explanation:
Using the dividend growth model, the value of a stock is the present value of the future dividends receivable discounted at the required rate of return . The required rate of return is given as 12%.
So we discount the year 3 dividend using the dividend growth model formula
P = D (1+g)/r-g
r- rate of return, g = growth rate
Present value of the future dividends:
PV of Year 1 = 1.55(1.015)m × 1.12^(-1)
= 1.4047
PV of Year 2 = 1.55 (1.015)(1.015) × 1.12^(-2)
= 1.27
PV of Year 3 (this will be done in two steps)
Step 1; PV (in yr 2) of year 3 dividend
= (1.55)(1.015)^2×(1.08)/(0.12-0.08)
=43.114
Step 2 : PV (in yr 2) of year 3 dividend
=43.114 × (1.12^(-2))
= 34.37
Best estimate of stock = 1.40 + 1.27 +34.37
= $37.05
Note
To discount the year 3 dividend, we use two steps. The first stp helps get the PV in year 2, and step 3 helps to take it further to the PV in year 0
