Answer:
-8
Step-by-step explanation:
For roots r and s, the quadratic can be factored ...
f(x) = (x -r)(x -s) = x^2 -(r+s)x +rs
Then the value of r^2+s^2 can be determined from the coefficient of x (-(r+s)) and the constant (rs) by ...
r^2 +s^2 = (-(r+s))^2 -2(rs) = (r^2 +2rs +s^2) -2rs = r^2 +s^2
Comparing this to your given equation, we have the coefficient of x as (-2m) and the constant term as (m^2+2m+3). Forming the expression ...
(x-coefficient)^2 -2(constant term)
we get ...
r^2 +s^2 = (-2m)^2 -2(m^2 +2m +3) = 2m^2 -4m -6
r^2 +s^2 = 2(m -1)^2 -8
The minimum value of this quadratic expression is where m=1 and the squared term is zero. That minimum value is -8.
The NPV is positive, therefore, this order can be placed.
<h3>How to calculate the NPV?</h3>
The calculation of probability of default will be:
= 1 / 200 = 0.005
We use NPV formula to find out whether the order should be filled or not
NPV = -Variable cost per unit +[(1-π)(price of equipment/1+percentage of return)]
= -$1.6 million +[(1-0.005)($1.725m/1.018)]
= -$1.6m + $1.6860
= 0.0860 million
As NPV is positive this order can be placed.
