Because testing of nuclear bombs was halted internationally in 1992, the Department of Energy has developed a laser system that

allows engineers to simulate (in a laboratory) conditions in a thermo-nuclear reaction. Due to soaring cost overruns, a congressional committee undertook an investigation and discovered that the estimated development cost of the project increased at an average rate of 2% per six-months over a 5-year period. If the original cost was estimated to be $3.1 billion 5 years ago, what is the expected cost today?

Answer:

The estimated development cost of the project will increase from the original cost of $3.1 billion 5 years ago to $3.7727 billion today.

Explanation:

Data and Calculations:

Original estimated development cost = $3.1 billion

Average rate  of interest = 2% per six months or 4% per year (2 * 2%)

Period of project = 5 years using 4% or 10 using 2%

Using a future value factor of 1.217 from a future value table at 4% per year for 5 years:

The expected cost today = $3.1 billion * 1.217 = $3.7727 billion

Using an online financial calculator:

Results:

FV = $3,778,882,701.98

Total Interest $678,882,701.98

N (# of periods)  10

I/Y (Interest per year)  4

PV (Present Value)  $3,100,000,000

PMT (Periodic Payment)  0

Settings

P/Y (# of periods per year)  2

C/Y (# of times interest compound per year)  2

Answer:

The present  value of the dividends to be paid out over the next six years if the required rate of return is 15 percent is $6.57

Explanation:

Solution:

Given that

The present value =∑ ⁿ t=1 cf/ (1 +r)t

where cf= cash flow

r =the required rate of return

t = the number of years

Now

The present value will be:

cf₁/(1+r)^1 + cf₂/(1 +)^2 + cf₃/(1+r)3 + cf₄/(1 +r)^4) + cf₅/(1 +r)^5 + cf₆/(1+r)^6

Hence,

cf₁, cf₂ cf₃ = 0 as the firm does not expect to pay dividend in the next three years

GrogVix [38]

Answer: a. cash register tapes.

Explanation:

When you go to a shop and buy something at the till and the cashier prints a receipt and gives it to you, that paper is a cash register tape.

A cash register tape therefore shows the goods sold and the amount the goods were sold at. It is therefore not used as a method of control for cash disbursement which is cash going out of a business but rather for cash that is coming into the business.
