Answer:
FCF years 1 is $43,000
NPV is $13,300
Explanation:
The free cash flow for the first year=net income+depreciation-Capital exp
net income is $13,000
depreciation is $30,000
capital exp for the first year is nil
the free cash flow=$13,000+$30,000+$0=$43,000
FCF year zero=-$90,000
the FCF for year1 applies to years 2 and 3 as well
NPV=-$90,000+$43,000/(1+12%)^1+$43,000/(1+12%)^2+$43,000/(1+12%)^3=
$13,278.74
The closest option is $13,300
Answer:
2. Participants might give socially desirable or false answers rather than honest ones because the questions are transparent.
Explanation:
A questionnaire comprises of questions in open-ended or closed-ended formats used to effectively get informations from a selected sample size in a specific period of time. When designed correctly or properly, questionnaires can be used to gather user data(thoughts, views, opinions) in a short period of time.
The problem associated with the rational method of developing questionnaire items is that participants might give socially desirable or false answers rather than honest ones because the questions are transparent.
Answer:
c. skimming pricing
Explanation:
Based on the information provided within the question it can be said that in this scenario Xerox was using a skimming pricing strategy to help recover the cost of its research and development. This is a pricing strategy in which the company places a really high initial price for it's new product, but then goes lowering the price as time passes. This also makes individuals believe that they are getting a bargain when prices begin to drop and decide to buy more.
Answer:
Diminishing returns
Explanation:
A firm producing widgets (term for a generic good) has two factors of production.
The factory and labour. The capacity of the factory is fixed, and the marginal cost
(MC) of labour is the same (i.e. each new worker will cost the same).
There are two stages to how MC is affected.
1. Increasing returns (MC goes down)
As output begins to increase, the large manufacturing processes/equipment still not fully utilised means and the additional labour can be productive as they can always use the equipment to its full potential due to which the MC is relatively low.
2. Constant returns (MC goes sideward)
At this point, labour is producing its optimal output per unit. The marginal cost is therefore at its lowest.
3. Diminishing returns (MC goes up)
The more labour that is employed, the less marginal output it is able to produce. This could be a result of too many people to efficiently operate/ rotate use of machinery. The cost increases more and more to generate an extra unit of output, because of labour exhibiting diminishing returns in the short run.
In this question, the 10th worker has added 22 units which is 3 units less than the number of units added by the 9th worker, thus the company is producing less marginal output for each worker. so based on the above discussion it can be concluded that the company has Diminishing returns.
