Answer:

When interest rate is 6%, i would choose to collect $900 in five years because the present value of this option is greater than the present value of the second option

When interest rate is 14%, I would choose to collect $150 per year for 5 years because the present value of this option is greater than the present value of the first option

Explanation:

To determine which option ii would accept, the present value of the cash flows have to be determined

Present value is the sum of discounted cash flows

Present value can be calculated using a financial calculator

Cash flow in year 1 to 4 = 0

Cash flow in year 5 = $900

Present value when interest rate is 6% = 672.53

Present value when interest rate is 14% = 467.43

Cash flow each year from year 1 to 5 = $150

Present value when interest rate is 6% = $631.85

Present value when interest rate is 14% = 514.96

When interest rate is 6%, i would choose to collect $900 in five years because the present value of this option is greater than the present value of the second option

When interest rate is 14%, I would choose to collect $150 per year for 5 years because the present value of this option is greater than the present value of the first option

To find the PV 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

Match the given distinctiveness to the type of equity or debt finance that is available for a business.
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

<u>Common stock</u>

The equity holders have a right to vote on corporate policy. In the case of liquidation, common stockholders are last in line in the distribution of the company's assets.

<u> Preferred stock </u>

The equity holders are paid dividends at regular intervals.  Preferred stockholders have a priority in dividends payments over common shares but have no voting rights.

<u>Retained earnings</u>

The profit is used in the business. Retained earnings are profits that a company's management opts to distribute to shareholders as dividends.

<u>Senior debt</u>

The lenders are always paid within a predetermined time. Senior debts are low risk as they are given priority over other debts in repayment.

<u>Subordinate debt</u>

The debt carries more risk and is not the first in line to be paid. In the event of liquidation, subordinate debts are considered last in order of payment.
