Alisiya [41]

Answer: 1.222

Explanation:

The Average duration can be derived from the formula:

Assets * Average Duration = Liabilities * Duration of Liabilities

Average Duration = (Liabilities * Duration of Liabilities) / Assets

= (47,000,000 * 1.3) / 50,000,000

= 61,100,000 / 50,000,000

= 1.222

Atlas Corp. is considering two mutually exclusive projects. Both require an initial investment of $10,000 at t = 0. Project S ha

snow_lady [41]

Answer:

A) $56.5

Explanation:

Data:

Project S

Initial cost $10,000

Y1 CF = $6,000

y2 CF = $8,000

Project L

Initial Investment = $10,000

Y1-Y4 CF = $4,373

Solution:

For Project S

We shall prolong the project to four years so it can be easily compared to project L

Following shall be the cashflow stream:

Y0=-$10,000 Y1=$6,000 Y2=-$2,000($8,000 CF - $10,000 outlay for prolonging the project second time) Y3=$6,000 Y4=$8,000

Now to discount the cashflow

$NPV=-10000/(1+0.0925)^0+6000/(1+0.0925)^1-2000/(1+0.0925)^2+6000/(1+0.0925)^3+8000/(1+0.0925)^4$

$NPV=4033.40$

For Project L

In order to calculate present value of the annuity, following formula will be used:

$PV=PMT(1+(1/(1+r)^n)/r$

NPV = Initial outlay - PV

$4373(1+(1/(1+0.0925)^4)/0.0925=14089.9$

$NPV=-10000+14089.9$

$NPV=4089.9$

Now, we can easily calculate how much value will the firm gain or lose if Project L is selected over Project S

$Value=NPV(L)-NPV(S)$

$Value=4033.40-4089.90$

$Value=56.50$

*all figures are rounded off to two decimal points*

Which way of preparing for a test does not use the Growth Mindset?

Artyom0805 [142]

Answer: I know that I'm not great at tests, so I'm not going to worry about studying a lot.

Explanation:

The Growth Mindset is a principle that describes the mindset of believing that one can get better. It is the belief that your basic skills can be horned to be better by constantly working towards it.

The person in Option B who said that they won't study because they know they are not very good at tests does NOT have the growth mindset because they are not interested in improving themselves at all. They have made up their mind that they are not very good at something and so will just leave it as it is. This is called a FIXED MINDSET.
