Year cashflow
0 -100
1-10 15
0n the basis of the behavior of the firm's stock, you believe that the beta of the firm is 1.30. Assuming that the rate of return available on risk-free investments is 5% and that the expected rate of return on the market portfolio is 15% what is the net present value of the project
Answer:
NPV= -$32.58
Explanation:
The net present value of the investment is the cash inflow from the investment discounted at required rate of return. The required rate of return can be determined using the the formula below:
Ke= Rf +β(Rm-Rf)
Ke =? , Rf- 5%,, Rm-15%, β- 1.30
Ke=5% + 1.30× (15-5)= 18%
The NPV = Present value of cash inflow - initial cost
= A×(1-(1+r)^(-10)/r - initial cost
A- 15, r-18%
NPV = 15× (1-1.18^(-10)/0.18 - 100= -32.58
NPV = -$32.58

I think not. Business Ethics are therefore based on General ethics with an immaterial difference.

Direct manufacturing labor $8.00 per unit
Variable manufacturing costs $4.00 per unit
Fixed manufacturing costs $63.00 per unit
<u>The absorption costing method includes all costs related to production, both fixed and variable.</u> The unit product cost is calculated using direct material, direct labor, and total unitary manufacturing overhead.
