Katena32 [7]

Answer:

$523,800

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Cost price by buyer = $525000

Selling price by seller = $485000

Sales tax = 8%

Unknown:

The lowest selling price by the seller = ?

Solution:

To solve this business problem, we must understand that the price the seller would be will to part with will be his selling price and the percentage of sales tax incurred in the procurement.

This will be the minimum and least profitable estimated amount the seller is willing to sell at.

Lowest selling price = selling price by seller + amount of sales tax incurred

Sales tax amount = selling price x sales tax percentage

= $485000 x $\frac{8}{100}$

= $38800

Lowest selling price = $485000 + $38800 = $523,800

You are considering two mutually exclusive projects with the following cash flows. Which project(s) should you accept if the dis

larisa [96]

Answer:

NPV Project A = - $825.31

NPV Project B = $6119.89

So, at a discount rate of 8.5%, Project B should be accepted.

NPV Project A = - $6804

Npv Project B = - $3764.48

So, at a discount rate of 13%, neither of the projects should be accepted.

Explanation:

One of the methods to evaluate a project is to determine the NPV or Net Present Value from the project. If a project provides a positive NPV after discounting the cash flows from the project at a set discount rate, the project should be accepted. If the project gives a negative NPV, the project should be discarded.

The NPV is calculated as follows,

NPV = CF1 / (1+r) + CF2 / (1+r)^2 + ... + CFn / (1+r)^n - Initial cost

Where,

CF1, CF2, ... represents the cash flows in year 1 and year 2 and so on
r is the discount rate

<u>At 8.5% discount rate</u>

NPV Project A = 31000/(1+0.085) + 31000/(1+0.085)^2 + 31000/(1+0.085)^3 - 80000

NPV Project A = - $825.31

NPV Project B = 110000 / (1+0.085)^3 - 80000

NPV Project B = $6119.89

So, at a discount rate of 8.5%, Project B should be accepted.

<u>At 13% discount rate</u>

NPV Project A = 31000/(1+0.13) + 31000/(1+0.13)^2 + 31000/(1+0.13)^3 - 80000

NPV Project A = - $6804

NPV Project B = 110000 / (1+0.13)^3 - 80000

Npv Project B = - $3764.48

So, at a discount rate of 13%, neither of the projects should be accepted.

agasfer [191]

Answer:

The answer is: Yes, an exchange was made.

Explanation:

In marketing, an exchange happens every time two or more entities (people. organizations or businesses) trade products or services. Each trade should result in a utility created for each party involved. In other words, what you get in exchange is worth more (at least for you) than what you give.

In Amanda's case, an exchange is made because she donated blood and received a feeling of satisfaction and happiness in exchange.
