Answer:

Forget that you’re up there not to promote how wonderful you are, but to provide value to the audience.

Lose focus of what the audience needs from you. One way: Before you start talking, ask, “What do you hope to learn/achieve from this meeting?”

Fail to set objectives. Even if you don’t share them with participants, know what you want to achieve.

Proceed without a plan (also known as an agenda). Whatever you call it, it’s a map for how your session is going to go.

Wing it. Preparation is everything. Unless you’re an improv master, you have to figure out what you’re going to do, in what order and for how long. And almost everyone needs to practice.

Jump from point to point in a disorganized way. See #4 and #6.

When the expected inflation rate increases, the real cost of borrowing ________ and bond supply ________, everything else held c

Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

The answer is: C) decreases ; increases

Explanation:

The real cost of borrowing is calculated by adjusting the nominal cost of borrowing by the inflation rate. This means that if the inflation rate increases, then the adjusted real cost of borrowing will decrease.

The inflation rate increases when country´s money supply growth rate outpaces its economic growth. So when the inflation rate increases (lowering the real cost of borrowing), borrowers are more likely to issue bonds, increasing the bond supply.

05) Assume that prices and wages adjust rapidly so that the markets for labor, goods, and assets are always in equilibrium. What

Kay [80]

Answer:

Explanation:

a. A temporary increase in government purchases would result in a reduction in savings, which would, in turn, lead to the implementation of higher taxes by the government so as to match prices and wages.

This would: make output to remain unchanged, real interest to increase and current price level to increase as well.

b. A reduction in expected inflation would lead to an increment in the demand for real money, as people do not expect inflation to increase for a while. Thus, more demand creates a reduction in the price level. Everything else remains unchanged. This would: make output remain unchanged, real interest remain unchanged and the current price level to decrease.

C. A temporary increase in labor supply would make more people have jobs and therefore more people can save. If more people save the interest rates are liable to decrease therefore money demand will increase. This would: make output to increase, real interest to decline and current price level to decrease.

d. An increase in the interest rate paid on money will lead to a higher demand for money. With an unchanged nominal money supply and higher money demand, the price would decline but everything remains unchanged. This would make: output remain unchanged, real interest remains unchanged and the current price level decrease.

You are evaluating two different silicon wafer milling machines. The Techron I costs $245,000, has a three-year life, and has pr

sveticcg [70]

Answer:

Techron I . According to the calculations, Techron I reports a better performance.

Explanation:

Techron I

Cost of Machine = $245,000

Useful Life = 3 years

Annual Depreciation = Cost of Machine / Useful Life

Annual Depreciation = $245,000 / 3

Annual Depreciation = $81,666.67

Salvage Value = $40,000

After-tax Salvage Value = $40,000 * (1 - 0.22)

After-tax Salvage Value = $31,200

Annual OCF = Pretax Operating Costs * (1 - tax) + tax * Depreciation

Annual OCF = -$63,000 * (1 - 0.22) + 0.22 * $81,666.67

Annual OCF = -$31,173.33

NPV = -$245,000 - $31,173.33 * PVIFA(10%, 3) + $31,200 * PVIF(10%, 3)

NPV = -$245,000 - $31,173.33 * 2.4869 + $31,200 * 0.7513

NPV = -$299,084.39

EAC = NPV / PVIFA(10%, 3)

EAC = -$299,084.39 / 2.4869

EAC = -$120,263.94

Techron II:

Cost of Machine = $420,000

Useful Life = 5 years

Annual Depreciation = Cost of Machine / Useful Life

Annual Depreciation = $420,000 / 5

Annual Depreciation = $84,000

Salvage Value = $40,000

After-tax Salvage Value = $40,000 * (1 - 0.22)

After-tax Salvage Value = $31,200

Annual OCF = Pretax Operating Costs * (1 - tax) + tax * Depreciation

Annual OCF = -$35,000 * (1 - 0.22) + 0.22 * $84,000

Annual OCF = -$8,820

NPV = -$420,000 - $8,820 * PVIFA(10%, 5) + $31,200 * PVIF(10%, 5)

NPV = -$420,000 - $8,820 * 3.7908 + $31,200 * 0.6209

NPV = -$434,062.78

EAC = NPV / PVIFA(10%, 5)

EAC = -$434,062.78 / 3.7908

EAC = -$114,504.27

ohaa [14]

Answer:

The marginal cost of driving the car is $7.50 + the cost of gas.

Explanation:

Initial cost: $29.95

200 miles you drove- 150 miles free= 50 miles you have to pay for

50 miles * 15 cents per mile

50* 0.15= $7.5
