Windhoek Mines, Ltd., of Namibia, is contemplating the purchase of equipment to exploit a mineral deposit on land to which the c

ompany has mineral rights. An engineering and cost analysis has been made, and it is expected that the following cash flows would be associated with opening and operating a mine in the area:
Cost of new equipment and timbers $310,000
Working capital required $190,000
Annual net cash receipts $125,000
Cost to construct new roads in year three $58,000
Salvage value of equipment in four years $83,000
Receipts from sales of ore, less out-of-pocket costs for salaries, utilities, insurance, and so forth. The mineral deposit would be exhausted after four years of mining. At that point, the working capital would be released for reinvestment elsewhere. The company's required rate of return is 20%.
Required:
A. Determine the net present value of the proposed mining project.
B. Should the project be accepted?
1. Yes.
2. No.

Answer:

NPV = -$78,318

Explanation:

cash flow 0 = -$310,000 - $190,000 = -$500,000

cash flow 1 = $125,000

cash flow 2 = $125,000

cash flow 3 = $125,000 - $58,000 = $67,000

cash flow 4 = $125,000 + $83,000 + $190,000 = $398,000

NPV = -$500,000 + $125,000/1.2 + $125,000/1.2² + $67,000/1.2³ + $398,000/1.2⁴ = -$78,318

Which of the following would tend to shift the supply of dollars in the market for foreign-currency exchange in the open-economy
scoundrel [369]

Answer:

The right answers are either b. or d., or both.

Explanation:

When the dollar loses value, there is higher demand for foreign imports in a country because they become cheaper. When the dollar gains  in value, a foreign country´s exports increase. Changes in the value of currencies reflect changes in demand and supply. An increase in exports will shift the demand curve of the dollar higher. A reduction of imports will have a contrary effect.

antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

Give consumers copies of their credit reports.

Explanation:

In Business, credit can be defined as money or a loan facility agreed upon by a lender and a borrower, who is obligated to repay the lender at a specified date mostly with interest depending on the terms and conditions.

The Fair Credit Reporting Act, or Title VI of the Consumer Credit Protection Act of 1968 is a federal law of the United States of America that was enacted by the 91st US Congress and signed into law by President Richard Nixon on the 26th of October, 1970.

The main purpose of this federal law is to protect consumer reports and information by promoting accuracy, fairness, and privacy collected by consumer reporting agencies.

However, the Fair Credit Reporting Act, or Title VI of the Consumer Credit Protection Act of 1968, do not require that lenders give consumers copies of their credit reports.

Some people include a letter of last instruction in their estate planning. What is likely TRUE about this letter?
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

A Letter of Last Instruction (LOLI) serves to give family important information such as where the person wants to be buried, instructions for any pets, or location of important legal documents.  

Side note: this is not a will, and should not be used as a substitution for one. A will is a legal document, a LOLI is not.

Hope this helps! Let me know if you have any further questions about my response.
