-$3,080. 

Using the CF function of your financial calculator, input the initial investment as a cash outflow (negative) of $11,400, then each of the cash inflows (positive) as $2,250 for each of the first 5 years and $1,500 for the sixth year. Hit the NPV button and input the required rate of return as 14.4% then the NPV will be -$3,080.

OlgaM077 [116]

The interest rate that should be used when evaluating a capital investment project is sometimes called the appropriate discount rate and cost of capital.

The cost of capital refers to the minimum rate of return needed from an investment to make it worthwhile, whereas the discount rate is the rate used to discount the future cash flows from an investment to the present value to determine if an investment will be profitable. Appropriate Discount Rate means, at any time, the real (i.e., not inflation adjusted) weighted average cost of capital (after taxes payable by the concession business).

Cost of Capital = (Risk-Free Rate of Return + Credit Spread) × (1 – Tax Rate)

A manufacturing company has some existing semiautomatic production equipment that it is considering replacing. This equipment ha
dem82 [27]

Answer:

It is a better deal to keep the old equipment

Explanation:

\left[\begin{array}{cccc}&New&Old&Differential\\$leasing cost&0&-23,000&23,000\\$operarting cost&-26,000&-12,500&-13,500\\$operating income&-26,000&-35,500&9,500\\$tax shield&4,200&0&4,200\\$Result&-21,800&-35,500&13,700\\\end{array}\right]

each year the new equipment generates a 13,700 adidtional cash outflow

We should check if the cost saving per year at 8% will have a present value lower than the proceed from the sale:

C 13,700.00

time 5

rate 0.08

13700 \times \frac{1-(1+0.08)^{-5} }{0.08} = PV\\

PV $59,076.1377

As the differential cost exceeds the amount of proceed we would get if the old equipment is sold we already conclude we should keep it

Define present value.
Igoryamba

Answer:

The present value is the value today of a sum of money to be received in the future and in general is less than the future value.

Explanation:

The formula to compute the present value is shown below:

Future value = Present value × (1 + interest rate)^number of years

or Present value = Future value ÷  (1 + interest rate)^number of years

Let us take an example

Present value = $2,750

Rate = 5.25% ÷ 2 = 2.625%

Number of years = 1 year × 2 = 2 years

So, the future value

= $2,750 × (1 + 2.625%)^2

= $2,750 × 1.0531890625  

= $2,896.27

It is done on semi annual basis. As we can see that the present value is less than the future value

When supply goes down and/or consumer demand goes up, what usually happens to the price?
Mashcka [7]

demand decreases, and supply increases. This is easy, the price will drop for sure, but if supply curve shifts right a lot more than the demand curve shifts left, then the new equilibrium point will mean more quantity is supplied at a much lower price. demand increases, and supply decreases.
