Answer:

NPV = $1,564.65

Explanation:

Here is the full question :

Hawkins Poultry Farms is considering the purchase of feeding equipment that costs $139,000 and will produce annual cash flows of approximately $36,000 for five years. The equipment is expected to be sold at the end of five years for $40,000.

What is the net present value of the proposed investment? Hawkins requires a 15 percent return on all capital investments

Net present value is the present value of after tax cash flows from an investment less the amount invested.  

NPV can be calculated using a financial calculator  

Cash flow in year 0 = $-139,000

Cash flow each year from year 1 to 4 = $36,000

Cash flow in year 5 = $36,000 + $40,000 = $76,000.

i = 15%

NPV = $1,564.65

To find the NPV using a financial calculator:

1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

2. after inputting all the cash flows, press the NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.  

3. Press compute

Anthony currently earns $25 an hour and works 40 hours a week. When his boss offers to pay him $29 per hour, Anthony decides to
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

substitution and income effects will counteract each other totally

Explanation:

A labor supply curve is an economic analysis tool that shows the number or workers that are available to work or that can work at various wage rates.

The labor supply curve can either be bending backwards or sloping downwards or upward curving but it shows the relationship between labour and wage rates.

A labor supply curve can be affected by factors such as population, changes in social behaviour, opportunities in other markets, among other things.

From the above question, it is seen that a change in wage rate for Anthony from $25 to $29 does not affect his work hours positively of negatively. His work hours is the same despite the increase in hourly wage.

The effect of the Anthony sticking to 40 hours of work despite an increase in wage, which could have served as some motivation for him to put in more hours is his labor curve remains same. An increase in wage has done noting to affect the number of hours he works and as such his income vs work rate counters each other.

Cheers.

Which of the following statements is CORRECT? Assume a company's target capital structure is 50% debt and 50% common equity.a. T
Bond [772]

The correct statement among the given is 'cost of equity is always equal to or greater than the cost of debt' .

Option-c

<u>Explanation: </u>

Debt on assets which are less likely to lose is secured more uncertainty leads to lower returns, hence lower costs. The risk of loss to equity holders also remains greater and not even assured against any collateral. In comparison to higher risk equity holders foresee higher returns.

This is why debt costs are higher. Such high risk will lead to higher equity costs than debt costs. To investors, equity costs would be returned on equity investment, and debt costs would be made as part of debt investment.
