Answer:

Confirmation bias

Explanation:

Confirmation bias occurs from the direct influence of desire on beliefs. When people would like a certain idea or concept to be true, they end up believing it to be true. They are motivated by wishful thinking. This error leads the individual to stop gathering information when the evidence gathered so far confirms the views or prejudices one would like to be true. Once we have formed a view, we embrace information that confirms that view while ignoring, or rejecting, information that casts doubt on it. Confirmation bias suggests that we don’t perceive circumstances objectively. A confirmation bias is a type of cognitive bias that involves favoring information that confirms your previously existing beliefs or biases.

For example, imagine that a person holds a belief that left-handed people are more creative than right-handed people. Whenever this person encounters a person that is both left-handed and creative, they place greater importance on this "evidence" that supports what they already believe. This individual might even seek "proof" that further backs up this belief while discounting examples that don't support the idea.

Thane Company is interested in establishing the relationship between electricity costs and machine hours. Data have been collect

dangina [55]

Answer:

The correct option : B. Cost = $ 130.00 + $ 5.90 x Machine - hours

Explanation:

Let's use the following method to solve the given problem

Now applying the high-low method of cost estimation,

High => November, 5,300 machine hours

Low => March, 2,300 machine hours

Arranging it in a simultaneous equations for total cost:

We can let fixed cost per month to be F, and the variable cost per machine -hour be V, and the number of machine-hours be Q.

Therefore

Total cost = F + VQ

High => F + 5,300Q = $ 31,400

Low => F + 2,300Q = $ 13,700

Subtracting Low from High, we have 3,000Q = $ 17,700 or Q = $ 5.90 per machine hour ................equation one

F = $ 13,700 - ( 2,300 x $ 5.90) = $ 130......................................................................equation two

Scampini Technologies is expected to generate $25 million in free cash flow next year, and FCF is expected to grow at a constant

Feliz [49]

Answer:

The stock’s value per share is $10.42

Explanation:

For:

FCF1 = Expected cash flow of the firm

= $25 million

WACC = 10%

g = 4%

Firm value = FCF1/(WACC - g)

= 25,000,000/(0.10 - 0.04)

= $416,666,666.67

We know that there is no debt & preferred stock, so the firm value will be equal to Equity value :

Firm value = Equity value

= $416,666,666.67

stock value per share = Equity Value/No. of share outstanding

= $416,666,666.67/40,000,000

= $10.42 per share

Therefore, The stock’s value per share is $10.42
