Answer: A
Explanation: There is a higher risk for banks when they give an unsecured loan. Secured loans have a collateral to back the loan, whereas unsecured loans are not a secure (hence the name).

Answer:
Effect on income= -$18,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Granfield Company has a piece of manufacturing equipment with a book value of $36,000 and a remaining useful life of four years. At the end of the four years, the equipment will have a zero salvage value. The market value of the equipment is currently $21,200. Granfield can purchase a new machine for $112,000 and receive $21,200 in return for trading in its old machine. The new machine will reduce variable manufacturing costs by $18,200 per year over the four-year life of the new machine.
Year 0= -112,000 + 21,200= -90,800
Year 1 to 4= 18,200*4= 72,800
Effect on income= -90,800 + 72,800= -18,000
Answer: Alternative 3 will be selected.
Explanation:
The system that should be selected is the alternative that is better than the other alternatives by being higher than MARR if selected.
First compare A1 to A0
The rate of return here is 18% which is higher than the MARR of 15% so Alternative 1 should be chosen over A0 which is to do nothing.
Compare A1 to A2
If A2 is chosen over A1, the incremental return is 10% which is less than the MARR of 15% so A2 should not be chosen over A1. A1 should instead be chosen over A2.
Compare A1 to A3
If A3 is chosen over A1 then the incremental return would be 18%. This is higher than the MARR of 15% so Alternative 3 should be chosen over Alternative 1.
Alternative 3 should be chosen over A1 which should be chosen over A2 and A0.
A3 will therefore be selected.
The statement that is true among the choices given is option C. The presentvalue of money is greater than its future value. This statement is a fact and is always true. The present worth of a money is greater than its future value due to inflation. This is the principle called the time value of money.
