Answer:

<em>The answer is 17.01 minutes</em>

Explanation:

<em>Given that:</em>

<em>The learning rate (r) = 85% = 0.85</em>

<em> T₃₂= 23.52 minutes</em>

<em>By applying the learning curve formula</em>

<em>Thus,</em>

<em>Tₙ = T₁ nᵇ</em>

<em>Where b represent ln(r)/ln2</em>

<em>b = ln( 0.85)/ln2 = -0.2344</em>

<em>23.55 = T₁ * (32)^-0.2344</em>

<em>T₁ = 23.55 * (32)^0.2344</em>

<em>Now,</em>

<em>T₁₂₈ = T₁ (128)^ - 0.2344</em>

<em>= 23.55 * (32)^0.2344 * (128)^ - 0.2344</em>

<em>=17.01 minutes</em>

Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

Price to be paid today = $118.35

Explanation:

<em>The price of a share can be calculated using the dividend valuation model  </em>

<em>According to this model the value of share is equal to the sum of the present values of its future cash dividends discounted at the required rate of return.  </em>

The model can applied as follows:

PV of dividend = D×(1+r) ^(-n)

D- dividend , r - required rate , n- number of year

D- 9.25,  r - 16%, n = 2

PV of dividend = 9.25 × (1.16)^(-2)= 6.9

PV of disposal value

PV of dividend = F ×  (1+r) ^(-n)

D- disposal value  , r - required rate , n- number of year

PV of disposal value  = 150 × (1.16)^(-2)= 111.47

Price to be paid today

Total present value  =  6.9  +  111.47  = 118.35

Price to be paid today = $118.35

a courier picks up 1000 small unmarked bills, some $20 bills and some $50 bills. The total value is $41,000. How many of each bi
Vladimir [108]

Answer:

Explanation:

The amount of bills are 1000

Let the number of $20 bills be x

Let the number of $50 bills be y

Using a ratio method, we assume that the ration of the bills are 20:50

Adding both ratios, we have 20 + 50 = 70.

To find x, we have

(20 ÷ 70) × 1000

0.286 x 1000

286 bills

To find y, we have

(50 ÷ 70) × 1000

0.714 x 1000

714 bills

Having calculated the number of bills for $20 and $50, we calculate the value of each bills.

we have, 286 x $20 = $5,720

              714 x $50 = $35,700

Adding these above amounts, we have

$5,720 + $35,700 = $41, 420 which is approximately $41,000.

Cheers.

Leslie is charged with determining which small projects should be funded. Along with this assignment, she has been granted the u
Andru [333]

Answer:

The answer is: Leslie should fund projects A and C

Explanation:

In order to determine if a project should be accepted, the first thing Leslie has to do is determine the projects´ Net Present Value (NPV). If the NPV is 0 or more, then the projects could be funded.  

The formula to calculate NPV is:

             NPV = ∑{p/( 1+r)t} - C

  • p = net cash flows from the period
  • r = discount rate (8.5% in this case)
  • t = number of periods
  • c = capital invested

<u>Project A:</u>

p = $4000;$4000;$4000

r = 8.5%

t = 3

c = $7,500

The NPV for Project A is $2,716.09

<u>Project B:</u>

p = $3000;$4000;$3000

r = 8.5%

t = 3

c = $8,000

The NPV for Project B is $511.52

<u>Project C:</u>

p = $0;$2,500

r = 8.5%

t = 2

c = $2,000

The NPV for Project C is $123.64

Once you calculate the NPVs from projects A,B and C you must determine how to distribute the $15,000 available. All three projects have positive NPVs, so they are profitable. But you can´t fund projects A and B since their combined costs ($7,500 + $8,000 = $15,500) exceeds $15,000. Leslie should invest in project A since its NPV is higher ($2,716.09 ˃ $511.52). She should also fund project C since its NPV is positive ($123.64) and the capital needed is smaller (only $2,000).
