I dont know if my answer is right or not but is it shallow?
Answer:
The Firm should not Buy and Install the press as it delivers a negative NPV of -$24,924 at 11% discount rate over its 4 year operations
Explanation:
The General rule is to appraise the investment based on various appraisal techniques.
A technique that should be considered must have special focus on the time value of money, the required rate of returns expected by the firm and other Cashflow considerations.
The Net Present Value (NPV) approach will be the best method to proceed with.
The NPV approach typically falls under the following decision tree:
a. If NPV is negative (Reject the proposal)
b. If NPV is positive (Accept if it's a singular project, Accept the highest positive NPV if it's for mutually exclusive Projects)
c. If Zero (this is the breakeven line at which the Project covers all its cost but does not return a profit.) Also referred to as the IRR

Answer:
The offer should be accepted
Explanation:
It is known that the amount $100,000 will be paid to someone when he turns 26 years. The current age is 21 years.
the 5-years bond is given 3.1 percent of interest rate.
another option for the person is offered $103,021.02 right away which is the present value.
The present value of the $100,000 that is going to be received after 5 years is calculated as follows;
Present value = Amount to be received /(1+interest rate/100)^t
= 100,000/(1+ 3.1/100)⁵
= 100,000/ 1.031⁵
= $85,843.35
Therefore, the present value is $85,843.35 for the amount $100,000 to be receive after five years.
Since the amount $103,012.02 he was offered is greater than the present value of his inheritance after 5-years, the person should accept the offer and forget about the inheritance of $100,000.
Answer:
Mark me as brain list
Explanation:
The researchers believe the late 19th and early 20th century immigrants stimulated growth because they were complementary to the needs of local economies at that time. Low-skilled newcomers were supplied labor for industrialization, and higher-skilled arrivals helped spur innovations in agriculture and manufacturing.
Answer:
Applied manufacturing overhead is $4,000
Explanation:
Given,
Total manufacturing overhead = $200,000
Activity level = 10,000 DLH
Predetermined overhead rate = 
=
=$20
Manufacturing overhead applied = predetermined rate × time required
= 20 × 200
= $4,000
Therefore, manufacturing overhead of $4,000 is applied to the job.
