Qualcomm has developed a groundbreaking new CPU chip. The patent on the chip will last 17 years. You expect that the chip’s prof

its to be $4 million in its first year and that this amount will grow at a rate of 5% per year for the next 17 years. Once the patent expires, Intel will be able to produce the same chip and competition will likely drive profits to zero. What is the present value of the new chip if the interest rate is 8% per year?

Answer:

$50.74 million

Explanation:

Interest rate per annum = 8%

Number of years = 17

Number of compounding per annum = 1

Interest rate per period (r) = 8%/1 = 8%

Number of period (n) =17 * 1 = 17

Growth rate (g) = 5%

First payment (P) = 4 ($'million)

PV of the new Chip = p/(r-g) * [1 - [(1+g)/(1+r)]^n]

PV of the new Chip = 4/(8%-5%) * [1 - [(1+5%)/(1+8%)]^17]

PV of the new Chip = 4/0.03 * [1 - [1.05/1.08]^17]

PV of the new Chip = 4/0.03 * [1 - 0.972222^17]

PV of the new Chip = 133.333 * (1 - 0.6194589804)

PV of the new Chip = 133.333 * 0.3805410196

PV of the new Chip = 50.7386757663268

PV of the new Chip = $50.74 million

When a tariff is imposed, there is always an additional loss. One loss occurs when consumers purchase fewer units of the good be
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is Production loss.

Explanation:

The quantifiable cost associated with the interruption of the operation of a pump is low when compared to the cost throughout its useful life in an installation carried out in a commercial building. However, the loss of comfort suffered by users of the building makes it advisable to have a spare pump.

Unlike what happens in production processes, stopping a pump from a commercial building almost never results in a loss of production. On the contrary, the interruption is usually translated into a loss of comfort. However, the immeasurable costs associated with downtime may be even higher if, for example, hotel guests run out of water. Therefore, it is always advisable to install a replacement pump to prevent comfort losses caused by an unexpected failure in the pumping system. The communication capabilities of electronically controlled pumps E help minimize downtime because replacement and repair work can be completed more quickly in the event of a breakdown. A backup pump is used to prevent downtime and consequent loss of comfort in the event of a breakdown.
