Suppose the real risk-free rate is 2.50% and the future rate of inflation is expected to be constant at 4.10%. What rate of retu

Yakvenalex [24]

Answer: 6.6%

Explanation:

The Pure Expectations Theory believes that the future long term rate is a reflection of future short term rates.

In terms of a 5 Treasury Security then, the rate of return to be expected is the risk free rate adjusted for inflation.

The Treasury Security has no risk but for inflation risk hence this is all that should be catered for.

Rate of Return on 5 year Treasury Security = Real Risk Free Rate + Inflation Rate

= 2.5% + 4.1%

= 6.6%

An airport needs a modern material handling system for facilitating access to and from a busy maintenance hangar. A second-hand

Arlecino [84]

Answer:

The second hand machine should be chosen given that the NPV value is lower than that of the new system

Explanation:

cost of second hand system = $75,000

cost of new system = $150,000

New system can decrease labor hours by 20%

number of useful life ( for both systems ) = 5 years

market value of second hand system after 5 years = $20,000

market value of new system after 5 years = $50,000

Second hand system can operate for 8 hours/day for 20 days = 8*20 = 160 hours per month = 1920 hours per year

labor cost = $40 per hour

MARR = 1% per month

Determine the system that should be recommended

we have to calculate the NPV for both options

for Option 1 ( second hand system )

labor cost = 40 * 1920 = $76800

cost of purchase = $75,000

MARR = 12% p.a.

residual value = $20000

First step : calculate the PV of maintenance cost = $76800× PVAF(12%, 5 years) = $276864

Next : calculate the PV of residual value =$20000× PVF(12%, 5th year)

= $11340

NPV = (75000 + 276864 - 11340 ) = $340,524

for Option 2 ( New Machine )

Labor cost = ( 1920 × 0.8 )hours ×40 = $61440

cost of machine = $150000

Pv of labor cost = 61440×3.605 = $221491.20

Residual value = $50,000

Hence ; PV of residual value = 50000 × 0.567 = $28350

Finally calculate the NPV = (150000+221491.20-28350) = $343,141.20

A furnace repair team services a design capacity of 6 furnaces per day with an effective capacity of 5 furnaces per day. What is

VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

66.7%

Explanation:

Given that,

Design capacity = 6 furnaces per day

Effective capacity = 5 furnaces per day

Efficiency ratio if it repairs an average of 4 furnaces per day:

= (Actual capacity ÷ Possible capacity) × 100

= (4 per day ÷ 6 per day) × 100

= 0.667 × 100

= 66.7%

Therefore, the efficiency ratio is 66.7 percent.
