Answer:

PV= $31,794.12

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Monthly payment= $600

Number of months= 5*12= 60 months

Interest rate= 0.05/12= 0.004167

<u>To calculate the present value of the monthly payments, we need to use the following formula:</u>

PV= A*{(1/i) - 1/[i*(1 + i)^n]}

A= monthly payments

PV= 600*{(1/0.004167) - 1/ [0.004167*(1.004167^60)]}

PV= $31,794.12

valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

The correct answer will be "Tactical planning".

Explanation:

  • Tactical scheduling or planning seems to be an essential factor of commercial enterprise which differs significantly from traditional forms of effective decision-making. The phase of tactical preparation occurs in real-time, following the short-term results.
  • With nothing more than a tactical approach in place, the company will make fast strategies to excel inside that chosen field of work.

So the above seems to be the correct answer.

As of November 29, it appears that Notel will report earnings per share (EPS) of $1.15 for the quarter ended November 30. Which
astra-53 [7]

Answer: D.  The company reissues the treasury stock it holds.

Explanation:

Earnings per share is calculated by dividing the Net Income by the weighted average number of shares that a company has outstanding. If the company reissues treasury stock, this would increase the number of average stock outstanding thereby increasing the denominator of the EPS equation which would have the effect of reducing the Earnings per share.

For instance, if a company had net income of $50 and common equity outstanding of $40, the EPS would be;

= 50/40

= $1.25

If the company reissues treasury stock of $30, the EPS would change to;

= 50/ (40 +30)

= $0.71

Greengage, Inc., a successful nursery, is considering several expansion projects. All of the alternatives promise to produce an
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

A. Project A

B. Project A has lowest Standard Deviation

C. Project D

Explanation:

A.

The higher the range, the more risky the project is. Based on the table, project A has the smallest range, and therefore is the least risky based on range.

B.

The standard deviation is not scale-free, i.e. it is not adjusted for the level of returns. Hence, a project that has the same distribution of returns, but a higher average return, will have a higher standard deviation. But the project is not any more risky. Hence, the standard deviation might not be an appropriate measure of risk.

C.

The Coefficient of Variation (CV) is calculated as follows:

CV = Standard deviation / expected return

Applying this formula, the coefficient of variation for each project is:

Project A: 2.9% / 12.0% = 0.242

Project B: 3.2% / 12.5% = 0.256

Project C: 3.5% / 13.0% = 0.269

Project D: 3.0% / 12.8% = 0.23 4

Based on the coefficient of variation, project D has the lowest coefficient. It means that the project has the lowest risk per unit of return generated, and thus is the best project and should be chosen.

mote1985 [20]

Answer:

E

Explanation:

In this question, we are told to state what the reaction of Koka and Zola will be;

Kukla and Zola both like the proposal. As according to the given opportunity cost for Kukla (3 rugs per every 4 tables) she can get 1.5 rugs for 2 tables .But with the offer made now she can get 2 rugs for giving 2 tables.

Given the opportunity cost for Zola ( 2 tables per every 3 rugs ) she must give 3 rugs for getting 2 tables. But with the offer made she can now get 2 tables for giving away only 2 rugs .

So both Kukla and Zola are happy with the offer.
