In some simple models of trade, a country may choose to specialize in the production of a single good. which is not an argument

LekaFEV [45]

An argument that is not against specializing in a single good in the real world is that specialization in a single good makes dumping easier and more effective.

If a country specializes in a single good, less waste will be produced and it can be dumped easily at one place and can be used or recycled more easily than to dump several different kinds of goods as they will need different technologies and to segregate them will be a hard job to do.

Countries improve their production of the commodity in which they specialize. There are many benefits to consumers if a country does so as specialization lowers the opportunity cost of production, increasing global production and lowering prices. These reduced pricing and increased supply benefit consumers.

You are considering in investing one of the two options: Investment A requires a $255,000 upfront payment from you and generates

Ainat [17]

Answer:

Option (E) Never

Explanation:

NPV from Investment Project 1 = ($255,000) + $21,000 / (r)

NPV from Investment Project 2 = ($175,000) + $29,000 / (r)

The question says that find the number of years that equals the total return which means the NPV from both investments is equal:

($255,000) + $21,000 / (r) = ($175,000) + $29,000 / (r)

$21,000 / (r) - $29,000 / (r) = $255,000 - $175,000

-$8000 / r = $80,000

r = - 8000 / 80000 = -0.01 = - 10%

The negative sign shows that project A can not make a positive NPV that will be equal to that of project B and vice versa. It can also be illustrated by putting the value of r in "NPV from Investment Project 1"

NPV from Investment Project 1 = ($255,000) + 21000 / -0.01

= ($255,000) - $210,000 = ($465,000)

This shows that the company will have to make losses of $465,000 which is not possible because company will not select projects with negative NPVs.
