Answer:

ECONOMIES OF SCOPE

Explanation:

Economies of Scope concept implies producing different , but related products will reduce the per unit  cost of production of the firm (relatively lesser than if the products would have been produced separately.

This happens because of backward & forward linkages in interrelated but different goods' inputs & outputs .

Ex : In this case, another byproduct - molasses has been produced of waste from sugar production, which could have otherwise been purchased input.

Economies of Production is cost reduction due to quantity & not variety production. Diseconomies of Scale & Diseconomies of Scope are their opposite phenomenas leading to cost rise . So , none of these 3 are apt.

VikaD [51]

Answer:

The correct word for the blank space is: 16.

Explanation:

Percentages represent part of a number. The result could be higher or lower than the original number. Percentages are calculated by multiplying the original number for the amount of the percentage desired and dividing that preliminary result by one hundred (100).

Thus, in the example:

Sales closed per day = (Sale opportunities) x (percentage of sales closed)  

Sales closed per day = 26 x 64%

Sales closed per day = 26 x (64/100)

Sales closed per day = 16,64

As sales cannot be fractioned, the sales closed per day are 16.

A company is evaluating an investment which has an initial investment of $4,000. Annual net cash flows is expected to be $2,000
uysha [10]

Answer:

The NPV of the project is $974.

Explanation:

The net present value is the today's value of a stream of cash flows. The net present value will be the sum of all the expected future cash flows from a project less the initial investment required for the project and it is used to evaluate the investment decisions.

The net present value of an investment project will be:

NPV = CF1 / (1+r) + CF2 / (1+r)^2 + ... + CFn / (1+r)^n - Initial investment

or

If the cash flows are constant or of same amount through out, occur after the same interval of time and are for a defined period of time, they become an annuity and the NPV of such a project can be calculated by,

NPV = (Cash flow per period * Present value of Annuity factor) - Initial cost

The NPV of this project will be = (2000 * 2.4869) - 4000 = 973.8 rounded off to $974
