Answer: B. Foreign cars become more expensive.

Explanation: The tariff slapped on imported goods such as cars and other foreign commodities will raise the overall cost of the product on the side of the seller and definitely the final selling price of such product to the consumers. This is used to raise revenue for the government and also to encourage the manufacture, adoption and support for locally manufactured products. Locally manufactured substitute will tend to be cheaper and the additional tariff may put importers and consumers off, and hence settle for cheaper locally made alternative.

Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

a. Decrease

b. Decrease

c. Decrease

d. Increase

e. Increase

Explanation:

a. When the company's cost of production increases, this reduces the amount of profits they make. A lower than expected profit margin is frowned upon in the Financial market therefore some people will sell their shares in the company which will have the effect of decreasing market value.

b. An increase in a firm's cost of financing signals an increase in the riskiness of a company. It also means that the company will be paying more on interest which will reduce profits. These 2 thing will drive some investors away thereby reducing the market value.

c. A firm's value can be found by discounting its projected sales and dividends amongst others with a certain discount rate. If a higher rate is used, the present value and hence the market value figure will be less.

d. When there is an increase in Sales revenue, it signals profitability for a company. Investors love profitable companies and will buy more of the company stock which will drive up the price.

e. Projected future profits can be used to calculate present value as well as serve as an indication of future profitability. Investors will buy more shares and drive up the market value.

You are considering the following two mutually exclusive projects. The crossover point is _____ and Project _____ should be acce

Romashka [77]

Answer:

13.28%; B

Explanation:

Project A Project B Differential

Year 0 -$21,000 Year 0 -$21,000 0

Year 1 $7,000 Year 1 $15,000 -$8,000

Year 2 $7,000 Year 2 $5,000 $2,000

Year 3 $15,000 Year 3 $7,000 $8,000

the discount rate = 14%, the NPV is:

NPV project A = -21,000 + 7,000/1.14 + 7,000/1.14² + 15,000/1.14³ = $651

NPV project B = -21,000 + 15,000/1.14 + 5,000/1.14² + 7,000/1.14³ = $730

if the discount rate is 14%, project B should be accepted (higher NPV)

the crossover rate is the discount rate where both NPVs are equal.

we must find the IRR using an excel spreadsheet and the IRR function:

=IRR (0,-8000,2000,8000) = 13.28%

Alex invested $10,500 in an account that pays 6 percent simple interest. how much money will he have at the end of four years?'

Marizza181 [45]

The amount generated from the investment with simple interest is calculated through the equation,

F = P x (1 + in)

where F is the future amount, P is the present worth, i is the decimal equivalent of the given interest and n is the number of interest period.

From this item it can be identified that,
P = $10,500
i = 0.06
n = 4

Substituting the known values,

F = ($10,500) x (1 + (0.06)(4))
<em> F = $13020</em>

Therefore, after four years, the amount of money that Alex will have is $13,020.
