Land improvements are capitalized separately from Land because land improvements have only a limited useful life.

Land is a special fixed asset which means that:

  • It is purchased for long term use
  • It is not depreciated because it lasts forever

Land improvements on the other hand, will not last forever. They will eventually wear out and need to be replaced. They are therefore capitalized separately from land so that they can be depreciated if need be.

In conclusion, land improvements are capitalized separately from land because they have a limited useful life.

For the first investment the solution as follows
Annual depreciation
600,000÷6 years=100,000

Net annual cash flows
100,000+155,000=255,000

Present value
255,000×4.11141+16,600×0.50663
=1,056,819.608

Net present value
1,056,819.608−600,000=456,819.608

For the second investment the solution as follows
Annual depreciation
390,000÷8 years=48,750

Net annual cash flows
48,750+60,000=108,750

Present value
108,750×4.96764+24,500×0.40388
=550,125.91

Net present value
550,125.91−390,000=160,125.91

Evaluate the business and charitable contributions of andrew carnegie and john
Jet001 [13]

Both Carnegie and Rockefeller were the biggest businessmen and the riches in the 20th century. After all their great amount of profits garnered, both had individually decided to embark in a journey of charities. Carnegie had charity contributions that were made into school such as the Carnegie Institution, Tuskegee Instituion, and a lot more. He was dubbed as the patron saints of libraries and decided to set up more charitable foundations. Rockefeller on the other had a lot of charities and activities that gave away his excess money into charitable causes. He too had built schools by starting to build University of Chicago.

But with all their charitable and business contributions, I would say I like Carnegie more because it gave away of a lot of technologies we know of today and he is working on a principle he deeply believes in that after gaining your wealth you should contribute this wealth for the general welfare. However, Rockefeller too was great and focused his contributions on public service.

svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

The total investment in P should be $405.40 which is further divided in X and Y as $243.24 and $162.16 respectively.

Explanation:

Expected return of risky portfolio is given as

E(P)=W(X)E(X)+W(Y)R(Y)

     = 0.60*14% + 0.40*10 % = 12.40%

So the expected return of risky portfolio is 12.40%.

Let the investment in risky portfolio be p

(1-p)*5% + p*12.40% = 8%

Solving this gives

p = 0.4054*$1000=$405.4

So the amount to be added in the risky portfolio is $405.4. This is further divided in X and Y as follows

amount invested in X = 0.4054*0.60*1000 = $243.243

amount invested in Y 0.4054*0.40 * 1000 = $162.162

So the total investment in P should be $405.40 which is further divided in X and Y as $243.24 and $162.16 respectively.
