Answer:
The EAR of this arrangement is 22.24%.
Explanation:
The choice given by the store means that the present value of 52 weekly equal payment discounting at a weekly discount rate will be equal to the furniture price which is $1,520 ( as one year has 52 weeks). So, we apply the formula for calculating the present value of the annuity, with x denoted as discount rate as below:
1,520 = (32.33/x) * [1 - (1+x)^(-52)] <=> x = 0.387%.
As x = 0.387% is weekly rate, the EAR will be calculated as:
EAR = [ (1+0.387%)^(52) ] - 1 = 22.24%.
Answer:
No
Explanation:
The estimation of the net present value is shown below:
= Present value of all yearly cash inflows after applying discount factor - initial investment
where,
The Initial investment is $180,000
All yearly cash flows would be
= Annual cost savings × PVIFA for 8 years at 12%
= $35,000 × 4.9676
= $173,886
Refer to the PVIFA table
Now set these values to the formula above
So, the value would equal to
= $173,886 - $180,000
= -$6,134
Since the net present value is negative, so the project should not be accepted
Answer:
total expected bonus = $1262800
Explanation:
given data
bonus = $23,000
Probability = 12 percent
bonus = $10,000
Probability = 25 percent
bonus = $6,000
Probability = 8 percent
total sales = 220
solution
first we get probability for bonus amount = $0
probability = 1 - ( 12% + 25% + 8 % )
probability = 0.55
so here Expected bonus per employee company will pay is
Expected bonus = $23000 × (0.12) + $10000 × (0.25) + $6000 × (0.08) + $0 (0.55)
Expected bonus = $5740
so total expected bonus is
total expected bonus = $5740 × 220
total expected bonus = $1262800
