Answer: 3.47 years

Explanation:

Payback Period on an investment can be calculated as:

= Cost of investment / Net annual cash inflow

The internal rate of return is the rate that equates the Cost of investment to the annual net cash inflow. This means that if you were to solve for the IRR factor, the formula would be:

= Cost of investment /Net annual cash inflow

Notice how the formulas are the same.

The factor for IRR is therefore the Payback period.

Using your Present value of an Annuity Factor table therefore, find the Factor for the IRR rate of 6% and 4 years.

= 3.4651

= 3.47 years

kipiarov [429]

When seeking financial backing from a venture capitalist, a small business owner should realize that the venture capitalist will expect an ownership stake in the company in exchange for financial backing.

Venture capitalists are investors that provide capital to small businesses, young companies, and start-ups in exchange for an equal value share in the asset and expect ownership.

Small businesses do not have adequate capital and turn to venture capitalists for financial backing to expand and upscale their projects. Venture capitalists do not invest in budding businesses but choose businesses that have strong management and clear concepts and are ready to market their products. Due to uncertainty in the investment outcome, venture capitalists tend to have a high failure rate, but the investments that do pan out tend to be high yield.

Acme Company has variable costs equal to 30% of sales. The company is considering a proposal that will increase sales by $12,000
mina [271]

Answer:

$0

Explanation:

The net income is the difference between the sales and total cost which comprises of the variable cost and fixed cost. The sales and variable cost are dependent on the number of units sold.

Let

u = number of units

s = selling price per unit

v = variable cost per unit

F = Fixed cost

I = Net income

I = su - F - vu

but vu = 0.3su

Hence

I = su - 0.3su - F = 0.7su - F

Given that the proposal will increase sales by $12,000,

New sales = su + 12000          ( in $)

and total fixed costs by $8,400

New fixed cost = F + 8400

New variable cost = 0.3( su + 12000) = 0.3su + 3600

New net income = su + 12000 - 0.3su - 3600 - F - 8400

= 0.7su - F

New net income is same as the old net income hence no increase.

1. If you were going to buy a fuel-efficient car, which three would you consider? Why? Answer:
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

Ford Fusion, Toyota Corolla and BMW i3

Explanation:

Fuel economy and fuel efficiency is one of the most important thing to consider when buying a car.

In United States, nearly 8 thousand gallons of petroleum are consumed by cars everyday. This cost a lot to the people's purse and most importantly it costs the atmosphere.

When we burn or use more fuel, the atmosphere gets more polluted by the exhaust of the fuel burning, and the world oil supply is depleting faster. This results in the rise of gasoline price. Thus, it is very necessary to plan before buying cars.

I would consider the cars Ford Fusion, Toyota Corolla and the BMW i3 while planning to buy a car because they are the most fuel efficient cars available in the U.S. They are also equipped with latest technology like cruise control which reduces the fuel consumption of the car.

The 2020 Ford fusion is a 6 speed automatic front wheel drive which gives the best driving experience and less energy wastage.
