You work for a pharmaceutical company that has developed a new drug. The patent on the drug will last 1717 years. You expect tha

Svetlanka [38]

Answer: The present value of the new drug is $19.33 million

We follow these steps to arrive at the answer:

Expected Revenues from the drug in year 1(P) $2 million

Growth Rate (g) 2% p.a.

No. of years (n) 17 years

Discount rate (r) 9% p.a.

Since the revenues are expected to grow at a constant rate of 2% p.a, we can treat this series of cash flows as a growing annuity.

We calculate the Present Value of a growing annuity with the following formula:

$PV = \frac{P}{r-g}*\left [ 1- \left (\frac{1+g}{1+r}\right)^{n}\right]$

Substituting the values we get,

$PV = \frac{2}{0.09-0.02}*\left [ 1- \left (\frac{1+0.02}{1+0.09}\right)^{17}\right]$

$PV = \frac{2}{0.07}*\left [1- 0.323558233\right]$

$PV = 28.57142857 * 0.676441767$

$PV = 19.32690763$

What are Costco business perks?

borishaifa [10]

Answer:

There are several perks or troubles that Costco business faces.

Explanation:

The first of these perks is the intense competition from other large retailers like Walmart, Target, or Best Buy. While Costco does have a niche: it tends to sell higher quality poducts for a slightly higher price, the competition is nevertheless stiff because that niche does not apply for all product lines that are sold.

The second perk is also competition, from online retailers, especially Amazon, which is larger than any traditional retailer, but also from a myriad of smaller retailers that emerge constantly in the online market, since the internet provides very few barriers to entry for new competitors.

Finally, the third peak is consumer preferences, and that is because consumers are constantly changing their tastes and preferences, especially in developed countries like the U.S. This means that Costco has to constantly adapt to new product lines, and discard other lines.

Two things that help you begin decomposing work are _____ and _____. Select an answer: reporting period; deliverables the scope

Rashid [163]

Answer:

the scope statement; deliverables

Explanation:

"Decomposing" a project will ensure an efficient way of accomplishing the project's goal. Before doing this, it is important to know what "the scope statement" is and the "deliverables" (multiple tasks in the production).

"The scope statement" allows one to know what should be included in the decomposition. It also tells when you are going to stop breaking down and what tasks are to be included. Once you know this, it becomes easier to decompose a project with one deliverable at a time. The scope will also be further clarified.

So, this explains the answer.
