  If the team won 40% of its first 15 games then the number of the winning games was:  15 * 0.4 = 6. Therefore the team lost 15 - 6 = 9 games.
  So the number of the lost games stays the same while the team wins new games in the row. They have to achieve 55% wins, so 100% - 55% = 45% is the new percent of lost games.
  x * 0.45 = 9
  x = 9 : 0.45
  x = 20
  20 - 15 = 5
  Answer: The team have to win 5 games in a row in order to have 55%
 winning record.

A heat integration project results in saving 5 MM Btu/h of heating utility and 14 MM Btu/h of cooling utility. The prices of hea
guapka [62]

Answer:

9.24 yr

Explanation:

The payback period refers to the amount of time it takes to recover the cost of an investment. In order to find a payback period we need to go through some calculations first  

Annual savings =  5 MM Btu/hr x 8,000 hr/yr x $4/MM Btu x 14 MM Btu/hr x  8,000 hr/yr x $7/MMBtu

Annual savings = $0.944 MM/yr

TCI = \frac{4.0 MM}{0.85}

TCI = $4.7 MM

Depreciation - Annualized fixed cost = \frac{[4.0 - 0] }{10}

Depreciation - Annualized fixed cost = $0.4 MM/yr

Total cost annualized = Annualized fixed cost + Annual operating cost

Total cost annualized = 0.4 + 0.5

Total cost annualized= 0.9 MM/yr

Annual net (after-tax) profit = Annual income - Total cost annualized x (1-Tax rate + Depreciation

Annual net (after-tax) profit = $0.944 MM/yr - $0.9 MM/yr x  1 -0.25 + $0.4 MM/yr

Annual net (after-tax) profit = 0.433MM/yr

Payback period = \frac{4.0}{0.433MM/yr}

Payback period = 9.24 yr

A firm must choose from six capital budgeting proposals outlined below. The firm is subject to capital rationing and has a capit
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

On IRR basis projects 1, 2, 3, and 5 will be selected.

On NPV basis projects 1, 3, 5,  and 6 will be selected.

Explanation:

The firm will accept or choose all the project that has a higher or equal internal rate of interest than cost of capital. However, in the given case project 4 has a lower internal rate of interest (12 percent) than the cost of capital. Thus, projects 1, 2, 3, and 5 will be chosen by the firm. While the firm has budget constraints so it will have no money for projects 4 and 6.

The firm will select all the projects with positive NPV when there is no budget constraint. But in case of budget constraint, the firm will select the project that has high NPV. Thus, Project 1, 6, 3, and 5 will be selected and there will be no money left for projects 2 and 4.
