Answer: 18.8%

Explanation:

Simple rate of return on investment = Incremental net operating income / investment

Incremental net income = Operating savings - Annual cost

= 145,000 - 420,000/6 years

= $75,000

Net investment = Cost of new machine - salvage value of old

= 420,000 - 21,000

= $399,000

Return on investment = 75,000/399,000

= 18.8%

Option D

He is probably using Indirect questions information seeking tactics

<u>Explanation:</u>

Indirect questions are a more formal process to demand erudition or perform requests. We regularly practice them when requesting something of immigrants or people we do not know well, including coworkers. Hinting is an indirect tactic.

It often transpires with questions about job execution. They are face-saving tactics.  Indirect questions are a way of being respectful.  We also practice them when requesting support from friends or when we desire to evade sounding demanding. But, some indirect questions do not exist wh-question words.

Alecsey [184]
The answer is A. 
CD(<span>Certificate of Deposit)</span> is similar to a saving account, but it has additional perks. There is a minimum amount of money you have to deposit and you have to deposit that money for a certain amount of time (term). CDs have better interest rate than savings accounts, but if you withdraw your money before the term you pay penalties.

Suppose you face a choice between a certain income of $2,000, or a 50-50 chance of income of $1,000 or $3,000. Suppose you prefe
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Solution :

The risk averse is the person who wishes to reduce the uncertainty attached to the money.

Certain income = $2000.

50-50 chance of 1000 and 3000 would income expected income of

(0.5 x 1000) +(0.5 x 3000) = 2000

Both of them gives an equal amount of income while there is uncertainty attached with the second case which makes the risk averse person disincline to follow.

Hence the statement is FALSE.

Assume that the population level in a country is X. 5 percent of the population are likely to get affected by the disease due to which it makes a population of 0.05 X population to be effected by the disease. The population level will cost  $38,000, hence making the total healthcare cost to be 1900 X.
