Answer:

Option e is the correct answer.

As the NPV of project 1 is higher than Project 2's NPV, Project 1 is recommended,

Explanation:

To determine which project to choose, we will calculate the net present value (NPV) of both projects and the project with the higher NPV will be chosen.

NPV is the present value of the future cash flows inflows expected from the project less any initial cost. The formula for NPV is as follows,

NPV = CF1 / (1+WACC)  +  CF2 / (1+WACC)^2  +  ... +  CFn / (1+WACC)^n  -  Initial outlay

Where,

  • CF1, CF2,... is the cash flow in year 1, Year 2 and so on

NPV - Project 1 = 60 / (1+0.1)  +  60 / (1+0.1)^2  +  60 / (1+0.1)^3  +  

220 / (1+0.1)^4   +  220 / (1+0.1)^5  -  200

NPV - Project 1 = $236.076 rounded off to $236.08

NPV - Project 22 = 300 / (1+0.1)  +  300 / (1+0.1)^2  +  100 / (1+0.1)^3  +  

100 / (1+0.1)^4   +  100 / (1+0.1)^5  -  600

NPV - Project 2 = $126.1861 rounded off to $126.19

As the NPV of project 1 is higher than Project 2's NPV, Project 1 is recommended,

The president of a growing engineering firm wishes to give each of 20 employees a holiday bonus. how much needs to be deposited
Ludmilka [50]

Given that: F (Future worth) = $2,500, i (nominal interest rate) = 0.12, compounded monthly = 12 months, years of investment = 1 year, and no. of employees = 20. Compute using the annuity formula: A=Fi/(((1+i)^n)-1). Calculating i = 0.12/12 = 0.01, since it is compounded monthly. Calculating n (total number of compounding) = 1 x 12 = 12, since year of investment is equal to 1. Substituting F=2500, i=0.01 and n=12 to the annuity formula, you will get A=$197.12. Multiply by 20, you will get $3,942.44.

Eccles Inc., a zero growth firm, has an expected EBIT of $100,000 and a corporate tax rate of 30%. Eccles uses $500,000 of 12.0%
Feliz [49]

Answer:

$587,500

Explanation:

You are required to calculate the value of the levered firm;

vL = vU + Dt, whereby;

vL = Value of levered firm

vU = value of unlevered firm

Dt = debt * tax ; which is the tax shield

Find value of unlevered firm;

vU = [EBIT(1-tax) ]/ rE

    = [100,000(1-0.30)] / 0.16

    = 437,500

Value of levered firm;

vL = 437,500 + (500,000*0.30)

   = 437,500 +150,000

   = $587,500
