The total length of cable that is needed for the installation of the lighting in the new apartments is calculated by multiplying the number of apartments and the length of cable needed for each apartment. The calculation is shown below.
L = (12 apartments)(60 m/apartment) = 720 meters of cable
As given in the problem, each spool holds 100 meters of cable. The number of spools needed is therefore calculated by dividing the total length by the length of cable per spool as shown below.
S = (720 meters of cable) / (100 meters/spool)
S = 7.20 spools
Hence, the smallest number of new spools that Ted will need for this job is equal to 8 spools.
Sell the asset, which will drive down the price and cause the expected return to reach the level of the required return.
Answer:
Supervised and Unsupervised Learning:
a. Unsupervised learning
b. Supervised learning
3. Supervised learning
4. Unsupervised learning
Explanation:
The key difference between supervised machine learning and unsupervised machine learning is that with supervised machine learning there is a training dataset (labeled data) on which the algorithm is trained to predict patterns. With unsupervised machine learning on the other hand, there is no training data. So, the algorithm discovers patterns on itself without reference to another labeled data or training dataset.
Answer:
a. What is the PI if the discount rate is 20%?
profitability index = present value of cash flows / initial outlay
PI = $9,137.41 / $5,000 = 1.83
b. What is the NPV if the discount rate is 20%?
NPV = -$5,000 + $9,137.41 = $4,137.41
c. What is the IRR if the discount rate is 20%?
the discount rate is irrelevant when you are calculating the IRR, since the IRR is the discussion rte at which the NPV = $0
IRR = 55.23%
Explanation:
Initial Outlay -$5,000
Year 1 $3,000
Year 2 $3,500
Year 3 $3,200
Year 4 $2,800
Year 5 $2,500.
