eimsori [14]

Answer:

both companies should invest because the NPV of both companies are positive

Explanation:

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

Only projects with a positive NPV should be accepted. A project with a negative NPV should not be chosen because it isn't profitable.

When choosing between positive NPV projects, choose the project with the highest NPV first because it is the most profitable.

Cash flow in year 0 = - $8.4 million

Cash flow in year 1-7 = $2.2 million

NPV of Lester with I of 15.8% = 0.54 million

NPV of Med Inc with I of 13.7% = 1.12 million

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.

Finger [1]

The SAFE act assures the payment of otherwise non-collectable court judgments against licensees who have committed fraud, misrepresentation, deceit, or conversion of trust funds in a transaction.

This was the act in the United States that made it mandatory for houses to be registered and licensed.

The act is based on houses that are used as residences. The full meaning of the act is the Secure and Fair Enforcement for Mortgage Licensing Act.

The main purpose of the SAFE act is to try to ensure that consumers are protected and also help in the reduction of fraud. This would be done by setting a standard for licensing and the originators of mortgage loans.

Suppose that the government is going to auction off permits equal to one third of total emissions in the economy (so two-thirds

LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

TRUE

Explanation:

TRUE, in the question, the government is going to auction off permits equal to one third of total emissions in the economy (so two-thirds of all emissions must be abated)

however, the firm will buy 100 permits even though thir marginal cost is below $ 15. because here the firm will get a monopoly in holding the permits of one third of total emissions in the economy. this is such a huge benefit for the firm and by acquiring this permits the firm can transfer the permission permits to other firm with high price or they can distribute the permits of emission among the different firms below the size of the emission permits holding firm. thus, even though marginal abatement cost of$8 has a special opportunity to buy 100 permits at a price of $15 per permits, the firm will resort to buy the permits. the power in handling the emission permits and the monopoly getting the firm in holding the permits allow the firm to act as a leader in the economy compared to other firm who don't have the emission permits. thus, the money gain and the authority gaining in emission permit hold the firm to buy the permits even though their marginal cost is below $15
