Answer:
C. Safe driving
Explanation:
Behavioral factors refer to the lifestyle habits of an individual. Auto insurance premiums are largely determined by the risk involved, as assessed by the insurance company. Insurance companies consider
- the car and its safety features,
- the driver's history and habits,
- insured credit history, among other factors, when determining auto premiums.
Safe driving is a habit that develops in a driver over time. It is captured in the driver's driving history. A driver with few incidents and accidents than other pay lower insurance premiums. However, accident-prone drivers, those who drive many hours per day, and night drivers will always pay high insurance premiums.
Answer:
A. NPV for A= $61,658.06
NPV for B = $25,006.15
B. 1.36
1.17
Project A
Explanation:
Net present value is the present value of after tax cash flows from an investment less the amount invested.
NPV can be calcuated using a financial calculator
for project A :
Cash flow in
Year 0 = $(172,325)
Year 1 41,000
Year 2 47,000
Year 3 85,295
Year 4 86,400
Year 5 56,000
I = 10%
NPV = $61,658.06
for project B
year 0 = $ (145,960)
Cash flow in
Year 1 27,000
Year 2 52,000
Year 3 50,000
Year 4 71,000
Year 5 28,000
I = 10%
NPV = $25,006.15
profitability index = 1 + NPV / Initial investment
for project A, PI = $61,658.06 / 172,325 = 1.36
For project B, PI = $25,006.15 / 145,960 = 1.17
The project with the greater NPV and PI should be chosen. this is project A.
To find the NPV using a financial calculator:
1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.
2. after inputting all the cash flows, press the NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.
3. Press compute
Answer:
-Better decision making
-Can prevent costly mistakes and helps in tax period
Answer:
FV= $1,259.71
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Initial deposit (PV)= $1,000
Number of periods (n)= 3 biannual years
Interest rate (i)= 8% = 0.08
<u>To calculate the future value (FV), we need to use the following formula:</u>
FV= PV*(1+i)^n
FV= 1,000*(1.08^3)
FV= $1,259.71
Answer: A
Cross training
Explanation:
Cross training involves teaching an employee the the skills required to execute the task he/she was employed for and also the skills required to perform a different job function. G4S is a security firm and the primary job function of its recruit will be protecting life but there might be case of an injured individual that need quick medical help, in such cases an employee is required to know basic first aid. Hence the need for cross training.
