Project 2 should be accepted as it's net present value (NPV) is higher

Bond A pays $4,000 in 14 years. Bond B pays $4,000 in 28 years. (To keep things simple, assume these are zero-coupon bonds, whic
Arlecino [84]

Answer and Explanation:

Given that Bond A pays $4,000 in 14 years and Bond B pays $4,000 in 28 years, and that the interest rate is 5 percent, we see that Using the rule of 70, the value of Bond A is 70/5 = doubled after 14 years. Now if its value is 4000 in 14 years, its current value must be halved. Hence the value is 2000.

Sinilarly the value of Bond B is approximately one fourth now because it pays 4000 in 28 years. Hence its value is 4000/4 = 1000.

Now suppose the interest rate increases to 10 percent. Hence the doubling time is 70/10 = 7 years

Using the rule of 70, the value of Bond A is now approximately 1,000 and the value of Bond B is 250

Comparing each bond’s value at 5 percent versus 10 percent, Bond A’s value decreases by a smaller percentage than Bond B’s value.

The value of a bond falls when the interest rate increases, and bonds with a longer time to maturity are more sensitive to changes in the interest rate.

The idea for "price profit," an app that businesses can use to track their revenue, profit, and payroll, is protected by
egoroff_w [7]

Answer: Copyright law

Copyright is security for tangible aspects of an idea. It is intended to give the creator of something original the ability to use and make money from it, without others being able to use it themselves. There are a number of limitations that do allow for a widespread use, they protect the derivatives of an idea also called intellectual property. Copyright tends to cover literary and artistic work e.g. books, movies. To get a better idea copyright is the reason you just can’t print and sell harry potter books or download pirated movies

Since the "<em>price profit"</em> app is an idea it is protected by the copyright law.

An investment pays you $30,000 at the end of this year, and $15,000 at the end of each of the four following years. What is the
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

Present value of the cashflow discounted at 5% per year 76,815.65

Explanation:

First, we calculate the present value of the 4 years 15,000 dollar annuity:

C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\

C 15,000.00

time 4

rate 0.05

15000 \times \frac{1-(1+0.05)^{-4} }{0.05} = PV\\

PV $53,189.2576

Now, we discount two more year as lump sum as this is two year after the invesmtent:

\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV  

Maturity  53,189.26

time  2.00

rate  0.05000

\frac{53189.2575624354}{(1 + 0.05)^{2} } = PV  

PV   48,244.2245

Finally we also discount the 30,000 by one year

30,000 / 1.05 = 28571.43

<em><u>We add up both to get the present value:</u></em>

48,244.22 + 28,571.43 =  76,815.65

Ambrin Corp. expects to receive $2,000 at the end of each year for 10 years. Then the corporation expects to receive $3,500 per
mash [69]

Answer:

The approximate present value = $24294

Explanation:

Given the annuity or expected amount for 10 years = 2000 dollars

The corporation expects the amount for next 10 years = $3500

Discount rate or interest rate = 8%

Present value = (2000 × PVIFA at 8%, 10 YEARS) + (3500 × PVIFA at 8%, 10 YEARS × PVIFat 8%, 10 YEARS)

Present rate = (2000 × 6.710) + (3500 × 6.710 X 0.463)

= $24293.6 or  $24294 (round off)
