Based on the amount it would cost to build the machine and the interest rate as well as the payoff, the following are true:
a. The machine will take a year to build which means the payoff will only start coming in next year.
First find the present value of the perpetuity:
= 70 / 5%
= $1,400
You then need to find the present value of the above in the current period:
= 1,400 / ( 1 + 5%)
= $1,333
NPV is:
= 1,333 - 1,000 cost
= $333
B. If the amount produced increases by 1%, you should use the Gordon Growth Model:
<em>= Next payoff / ( Interest - Growth)</em>
=70/ ( 5% - 1%)
= $1,750
Take this to current year:
= 1,750 / 1.05
= $1,667
NPV will be:
= 1,667 - 1,000
= $667

Answer:
B. There will be a decrease in supply.
Explanation:
The switch would cause the amount of cow rearers to fall. The amount of cow available would fall and there would be a decrease in the supply of beef.

Answer:
Beta= 1.26
Explanation:
<u>First, we will calculate the proportion of the portfolio of each security:</u>
Security A= 600/1,000= 0.6
Security B= 400/1,000= 0.4
<u>Now, the beta of the portfolio:</u>
Beta= (proportion of investment A*beta A) + (proportion of investment B*beta B)
Beta= (0.6*1.5) + (0.4*0.9)
Beta= 1.26
