Answer:

A) 3:10

B) 3/10

Explanation:

A) Let the number of stickers that Corrine has be x.

We are told that Brenda has 2/5

as many stickers as Corrine.

Thus;

Brenda has (2/5)x stickers

Also, we are told that Ann has 3/4 as many stickers as Brenda.

Thus;

Ann has: ¾ × (2/5)x stickers = 3x/10 stickers

Thus;

ratio of the number of stickers Ann has to the number of stickers Corrine has = (3x/10) : x. This gives; 3:10

B) fraction of stickers Anne has to the number that Corrine has is 3/10

Your firm is considering opening a branch office in Kyle. The office would cost $485,000 to build the office. During the office

wariber [46]

Answer:

The NPV from opening the branch office is negative ( -$106668.08). Thus the branch office should not be opened.

Explanation:

The decision to open the branch office will be taken based on the NPV provided by opening of the branch office. If the NPV of a project is positive based on the required rate of return used as a discount rate fro cash flows, the investment is worth undertaking.

The net present value (NPV) for a project can be calculated as,

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

Where,

r is the appropriate discount rate
Initial Outlay is the Initial cost of the project
CF represents cash flows from the project

As the required return is 16%, we will take this as the appropriate discount rate.

NPV = 45000 / (1+0.16) + 120000 / (1+0.16)² + 150000 / (1+0.16)³ +

150000 / (1+0.16)^4 + 150000 / (1+0.16)^5 - 485000

NPV = - $106668.08

As the NPV from project is negative at a required return of 16%, the project should not be under taken and the branch office should not be open.
