Answer:

The only two projects that actually yield a positive benefit are extra cameras (EC) and new sensors (NS). Since you have to decide based on which project yields the highest return, then you should choose extra cameras (EC) since its IRR is 92% which is the highest.

Explanation:

we have to determine the NPV of each project:

Extra cameras:

initial outlay = -$38,000

net benefit per year (for the 10 year period) = $110,000 - $26,000 - $49,000 = $35,000

NPV = $207,825

IRR = 92%

New sensors:

initial outlay = -$87,000

net benefit per year (for the 10 year period) = $160,000 - $21,000 - $64,000 = $75,000

NPV = $439,768

IRR = 86%

Steel tubing:

initial outlay = -$99,000

net benefit per year (for the 10 year period) = $74,000 - $32,000 - $42,000 = $0

NPV = -$99,000

Access controls:

initial outlay = -$61,000

net benefit per year (for the 10 year period) = $52,000 - $14,000 - $38,000 = $0

NPV = -$61,000

UkoKoshka [18]

At the time of collection, if the amount is paid within the discount period, the following entry is recorded:

Cash (+A).......................xxx

Sales discount(+XR,-R,-SE)........xxx

R. Jones (Accounts Receivables)(-A)….xxx

If the account is paid in full before the end of the discount period, the customer can be eligible for a cash discount rate. The duration of the trade credit is known as the credit period, and up until the end of the credit term, no interest is applied to the outstanding balance.

You use it to illustrate how a company's cash flow is distributed equally throughout the year rather than arriving in full at the end. We would use discount period numbers of 1 for the first year, 2 for the second year, 3 for the third year, and so on in a DCF without the mid-year convention.

Union Local School District has bonds outstanding with a coupon rate of 4.9 percent paid semiannually and 20 years to maturity.
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

Ans. Price of the bond is $9,250.57

Explanation:

Hi, first we need to establish the semi-annual coupon of the bond and the semi-annual discount rate (YTM semi-annually)

Coupon=10000*(4.9%/2)= $245

To turn the annaul YTM to semi-annual, we have to use the following equation

YTM(semi-annual)=(1+YTM)^{\frac{1}{2} } -1

YTM(semi-annual)=(1+0.056)^{\frac{1}{2} } -1=0.0276

After all this, we are ready to find the price, here is the math of this.

Price=\frac{245((1+0.0276)^{39}-1) }{0.0276(1+0.0276)^{39} } +\frac{(245+10000)}{(1+0.0276)^{40} } =9250.57

Best of luck.
