Suppose that the annual rate of returns on dollar deposits equals 2% and the rate of return on euro deposits is 1%. Furthermore,

Oliga [24]

Answer:

I should invest in dollar deposits.

Explanation:

Current exchange rate is 1 euro = $1.08

Assuming I have y euro, the equivalent in dollar is $1.08y

Rate of return on dollar deposit = 2% = 0.02

Return on investment = $1.08y + (0.02 × $1.08y) = $1.08y + $0.0216y = $1.1016y

Rate of return on euro deposit = 1% = 0.01

Return on investment = y euro + (0.01 × y euro) = y euro + 0.01 y euro = 1.01y euro = 1.01y × $1.08 = $1.0908y

I should invest in dollar deposits because the return on investment is greater than euro deposits.

(Growth) The U.S. Census estimated that the world population was 6 bil- lion in 1999, and it was increasing 212,000 per day. Wha

lianna [129]

Answer:

Annual growth rate = 1.29% per year

Population in 2050 = 11.53 billion

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Population in 1999 = 6 billion = 6,000,000,000

Rate of increase in population = 212,000 per day

Now,

Number of days in a year = 365

Therefore,

Annual growth rate

= [ Growth rate per day × Number of days in a year ] ÷ initial population

= [ 212,000 × 365 ] ÷ 6,000,000,000

= 0.0129 per year

or

= 0.0129 × 100%

= 1.29% per year

Now,

2050 is 51 year from 1999

Population in 2050 = Population in 1999 × ( 1 + rate )ⁿ

= 6,000,000,000 × ( 1 + 0.0129 )⁵¹

= 11.53 billion

Denver Mart is considering a project with a life of 5 years and an initial cost of $136,000. The discount rate is 11 percent. Th

Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

Denver Mart

The net present value of this project given the sales forecasts is:

= $98,400.40

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Project's estimated life = 5 years

Initial project cost = $136,000

Discount rate = 11%

Initial estimated sales = 2,200 at $26

Revenue in years 1, 2, and 3 each = 2,200 * $26 = $57,200

Sales forecast of Year 4 and 5 revised to 1,750 units

Probability of 1,000 * 50% = 500

Probability of 2,500 * 50% 1,250

Total sales forecast = 1,750 units

Revenue in years 4 and 5 each = 1,750 * $26 = $45,500

Present value of revenue:

Year 1, 2, and 3 = $57,200 * Annuity factor

= $57,200 * 3.102 = $177,434.40

Year 4, PV = $45,500 * 0.659 = $29,984.50

Year 5, PV = $45,500 * 0.593 = $26,9815

Year 1 to 5 added = $234,400.40

Present value of revenue = $234,400.40

Present value of costs = 136,000.00

Net present value = $98,400.40

Which of the following statements is most correct concerning a project with normal cash flows (i.e., a cash outflow in Year 0 fo

Bond [772]

Answer: D. If the NPV of a project is zero, then the IRR of the project will be equal to the discount rate for the project.

Explanation:

Net present value (NPV) refers to the difference that exist between the present value of the cash inflows and that of the cash outflows for a particular period of time.

The net present value is used in capital budgeting to determine if a projected investment or project will be profitable or not. For a project with normal cash flows, if the NPV of a project is zero, then the IRR of the project will be equal to the discount rate for the project.

Therefore, the correct option is D.
