Answer: 2.5 Yen

Explanation;

The Economic theory of Purchasing Power Parity when held, believes that prices of goods in different countries are the same if their exchange rates are taken into account.

For the above therefore it means that the price of the good is the same in both the US and Japan barring exchange rates.

Exchange rate is;

$100 = ¥250

$1 = 250/100

$1 = ¥2.5

Exchange rate is 2.5 yen per dollar.

Preston Industries has two separate divisions. Each division is in a separate line of business. Division A is the largest divisi
bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

D. assign appropriate, but differing, discount rates to each project and then select the projects with the highest net present values.

Explanation:

Even though Division A is the largest and produce the highest amount of sales, it will not be selected based on this factor but its net present value(NPV). This will determine if the sales actually can fully recover the initial investment amount and yield a profit. Therefore, since Division A and B have different levels of risk, it will be appropriate to find their NPVs using different discount rates and accept the one with the highest NPV.

Your neighborhood self-service laundry is for sale and you consider investing in this business. For the business alone and no ot
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

  • The complete present value calcuation is below.

  • The net present value of this project is: $77,930.58 (assuming a value for the sale of the business equal to the purchase price).

Explanation:

For this problem, the first and basic question is:

  • <em>Prepare a net present value calculation for this project. What is the net present value of this project?</em>

<em />

<h2>Solution</h2>

The net present value is equal to: the present value of the future cash flows less present value of the investements.

<u>1. Present value of the future cash flows:</u>

The discount factor is equal to 1 / [1 + (1 + r)ⁿ]

Where:

  • r = 5% = 0.05
  • n = the number of year

Year     Cash flow     Discount factor     Present value

1            $30,000       1/(1 + 0.05)             $30,000/1.05 = $28,571.43

2           $30,000       1/(1 + 0.05)²           $30,000/(1.05)² = $27,210.88

3           $30,000       1/(1 + 0.05)³           $30,000/(1.05)³ = $25,915.13

4           $30,000       1/(1 + 0.05)⁴           $30,000/(1.05)⁴ = $24,681.07

5           $30,000       1/(1 + 0.05)⁵           $30,000/(1.05)⁵ = $23,505.78

5           $240,000*   1/(1 + 0.05)⁵           $240,000/(1.05)⁵ = $188,046.28

*For the year 5 you must also consider the value of the business, which is unknow. You should have some information about it. Although unrealistic, at this stage we can just assume a value: let's say it is the same purchase price: $240,000. That is what the last line shows:

The discount the value of the value of the business is:

  • $240,000 / (1.05)⁵ = $188,046.28

The total present value of the future cash flows is the sum of the present values of all the cash flows:

$28,571.43 + $27,210.88 + $25,915.13 + $24,681.07 + $23,505.78 + $188,046.28 = $317,930.58

<u>2. Calculate the net present value:</u>

  • Net present value =

                     = Total present value of future cash flows - investment

  • Net present value = $317,930.58 - $240,000 = $77,930.58
