Answer:

The answer is option B) If the alternative proposals involve different amounts of investment, it is useful to prepare a relative ranking of the proposals by using a present value index.

Explanation:

Present Value Index is a used to measure the feasibility and efficiency of investment options.  It is the ratio of the Net Present Value of a project to the initial option required for it.

When several alternative investment proposals of the same amount are being considered, the one with the largest net present value is the most desirable.

However, If the alternative proposals involve different amounts of investment, it is useful to prepare a relative ranking of the proposals by using a present value Index.

Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

Ranking 10% interest rate:

1) 5 years

2) 10 years

3) 1 year

Raking 2% interest rate:

1) 10 years

2) 5 years

3) 1 year

Raking 18% interest rate:

1) 1 year

2) 5 years

3) 10 years

Explanation:

You have to apply to bring the amount of money to present value, according with the information, the formula is the next:

Present Value = Future Value/((1+ interest rate)^(n))

Where n is the number of years that you have to wait to receive the money.

You have to calculate every situation with the respective amount of time and interest rate, the result must be money. and when you get the 9 results, you have to compare every situation and chose the higher amount of money according to the interest rate, for example:

Present value = 140/ ((1+10%)^(1))=  127    

                       =  140/ ((1+10%)^(5))=   149    

                        =  140/ ((1+10%)^(5))=   135

So the answer for the first scenario with an interest rate of 10% is:  

Ranking 10% interest rate:

1) 5 years

2) 10 years

3) 1 year

Assume the macro islands can produce either 25 fishing boats or 150 jars of guava jelly in one hour. the micro islands can produ
LenKa [72]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "C": the Macro Islands have a comparative advantage in producing fishing boats, and the Micro Islands have a comparative advantage in producing guava jelly.

Explanation:

Comparative advantage is an advantage an individual, organization or country has to use <em>opportunity costs</em> in their production compared to their competitors. The scenario described above does not imply that the individual, organization or country has an absolute advantage.

In the example proposed:

  • Comparative advantage of Macro islands in fishing boats = \frac{25}{150}=  0.17
  • Comparative advantage of Micro islands in fishing boats = \frac{30}{300} = 0.10

  • Comparative advantage of Macro islands in jars = \frac{150}{25} = 6
  • Comparative advantage of Micro islands in jars = \frac{300}{30} = 10

Thus, <em>the Macro Islands have a comparative advantage in producing fishing boats, and the Micro Islands have a comparative advantage in producing guava jelly.</em>

Investors choose international diversification because:
Stells [14]

Answer: I found the correct and complete question:

Which of the following statements is most CORRECT with respect to international diversification?

a) the gains from diversification may be diminished due to combined correlations accompanied by volatility in world markets. b) world markets always seem to be most uncorrelated when volatility is present. c) world markets have displayed relatively low and fixed correlations over the last five years. d) global diversification produces gain even when world markets have correlations value near one.

Explanation: The correct answer is "a) the gains from diversification may be diminished due to combined correlations accompanied by volatility in world markets.".

Global markets are generally in different phases and many of them are part of weak economies that therefore have a high degree of volatility and some are correlated so that a loss in one of these markets can lead to a loss in another and earnings can be diminished.

WP Corporation produces products X, Y, and Z from a single raw material input in a joint production process. Budgeted data for t
mixer [17]

Answer:

yes yes NO ( A  )

Explanation:

products X,Y,Z

units produced : X = 1500 , Y = 2000,  Z = 3000

per unit sales value at split-off : X = $19, Y = $21,   Z = $24

Added processing costs per unit : X = $7, Y = $7.50 , Z = $7

per unit sales value if processed further : X = $29, Y = $29, Z = $30

COST OF JOINT MATERIAL INPUT = $149000

To check for products to be processed further we apply

(unit sales value if processed further - per unit sales value at split-off ) - ( added processing cost )

for product  X = $29 - $19 - $7 = $3

for product Y = $29 - $21 - $7.5 = $0.50

for product Z = $30 - $24 - $7 = - $1  ( negative value )

products to be processed beyond the split of point would be : X Y

because Z  has a negative contribution margin
