Answer: 3.34%

Explanation:

Firstly, we have to calculate the difference in CPI from the year 2263 to 2264 which will be:

= 605.7 - 586.1

= 19.6

Then, the inflation rate will be:

= Difference in CPI / Base CPI × 100

= 19.6/586.1 × 100

= 3.34%

The inflation rate is 3.34%.

Answer:

Discounted payback period= 3 years 1 month

Explanation:

The discounted payback period is the estimated length of time in years it takes the present value of net cash inflow from a project to equate the net cash the initial cost  

To work out the discounted payback period, we will compute present value of the cash inflow and then determine how long it will take for the sum to be equal to the initial cost. This is done as follows:

Year     Cash flow     DF        Present value  

0           487,000 × 1          = (487,000)

1          157,000 × 1.07^(-1) = 146,729.0

2         182,000 × 1.07^(-2) = 158965.8

  3         202,000 × 1.07^(-3) = 164,892.2

4         213,000  × 1.07^(-4) =162,496.7

Total PV for 2 years = 146729 +158965+164892= 470587.0

Balance of cash flow remaining to equal  =  487,000-470587 = 16413.0

 Discounted payback period = 3 years + 16413.0 /162,496.7 × 12 months

= 3year , 1.2months

Discounted payback period= 3 years 1 month

nexus9112 [7]

Answer and Explanation:

The composite score for each location is as follows;

The Composite score for Location A is

= 85 × 0.15 + 70 × 0.2 + 87 × 0.18  + 0.27 × 95 + 86 × 0.1 + 88 × 0.1

= 85.7

= 86

The Composite score for Location B is

= 85 × 0.15 + 91 × 0.2 + 97 × 0.18 + 90 × 0.27 + 90 × 0.1 + 0.1 ×92

= 90.91

= 91

The Composite score for Location C is

= 82 × 0.15 + 91 × 0.2 + 90 × 0.18 + 92 × 0.27 + 97 × 0.1 + 0.1 ×84

= 89.64

= 90

A company is considering an iron ore extraction project that requires an initial investment of and will yield annual cash inflow
Murrr4er [49]

Answer: D. 15%

Explanation:

The IRR is the discount rate that will make the Net Present Value to be 0.

In other words, the IRR is the discount rate that will make the cash inflow from the investment to be equal to the investment amount.

As the cashflow is constant, it is an annuity and so can be calculated by the Present Value Interest Factor.

Investment cost = $1,100,000

Using the options given;

Discount rate - 14%

Present Value of Cash inflow = 676,507 * Present Value of Annuity factor, 14%, 2 years

= 676,507 * 1.647

= $1,114,207.029‬

1,114,207.029‬ ≠ 1,100,000

Discount rate - 15%

Present Value of Cash inflow = 676,507 * Present Value of Annuity factor, 15%, 2 years

= 676,507 * 1.626

= $1,100,000.382‬

= $1,100,000‬

IRR is 15% as Present value of Cash inflow is equal to Investment cost at a discount rate of 15%.
