Which of the following is an example of a substitute for leadership within an organization?

The environmental protection agency of a county would like to preserve a piece of land as a wilderness area. The current owner h

makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

a. Assuming that the yearly benefits, which are measured in real dollars, accrue at the end of each of the 20 years, calculate the net benefits of leasing the land. Should the environmental protection agency pay for this piece of land?

the net benefits of leasing the land = the present value of the benefits generated

PV = annual benefit x pv annuity factor

annual benefit = $110,000
pv annuity factor 20 years, 4% = 13.590

PV = $110,000 x 13.59 = $1,494,900

Since the present value of the benefits is higher than the lease price, then this transaction should be carried out.

b. Some analysts in the agency argue that the annual real benefits are likely to grow at a rate of 2 percent per year due to increasing population and county income. Recalculate the net benefits assuming that they are correct. Should the environmental protection agency pay for this piece of land?

this is a growing annuity, therefore we have to use the following formula:

PV = [p / (r - g)] x {1 - [(1 + g)/(1 + r)]ⁿ}

p = $110,000
r = 4%
g = 2%
n = 20

PV = [$110,000 / (4% - 2%)] x {1 - [(1 + 2%)/(1 + 4%)]²⁰} = $5,500,000 x 0.321833005 = $1,770,081.53

Since the present value of the net benefits are even higher now, then the environmental agency should definitely pay.

natima [27]

Answer:

Option D is the correct option. Please choose option D that is $150,000.

Explanation:

Amount of paid-in capital from treasury stock transactions = Shares exchanged * (Market Price - Share purchase Cost)

Where Shares exchanged = 25000

Market price = $45

Cost of share = $39

Therefore, the amount of paid-in capital from treasury stock transactions = 25000 shares * (45 - 39) = $150,000

Option D $150,000 is correct

Halka Company is a no-growth firm. Its sales fluctuate seasonally, causing total assets to vary from $345,000 to $410,000, but f

mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

$345,000

Explanation:

Since Halka Company uses a maturity matching approach, it must match its short term working capital with its short term debts, and its long term working capital with its long term debts. Halka's assets should be compensated with a corresponding debt instrument of similar maturity.

Since Halka's assets vary form $345,000 to $410,000, its long term debt plus equity should match at least $345,000.

1. Consider an economy with a population of 100,000 households. 60 percent of households reportan annual income of $25,000 ("low

Leona [35]

Answer:

The total income earned by households in this economy is:

$4,700,000,000

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Household population = 100,000

Low earners = 60% with annual income of $25,000 each

Mid earners = 30% with annual income of $70,000 each

High earners = 10% with annual income of $110,000 each

60% of the population = 60,000 (100,000 * 60%) households

30% of the population = 30,000 (100,000 * 30%) households

10% of the population = 10,000 (100,000 * 10%) households

Total income earned by the households:

Low earners = 60,000 * $25,000 = $1,500,000,000

Mid earners = 30,000 * $70,000 = 2,100,000,000

High earners = 10,000 * $110,000 = 1,100,000,000

Total income earned in the economy $4,700,000,000
