Answer:

Explanation:

The Malthus theory states that population should be controlled because there are no enough resources to please the future needs. This is how it works: in the short-run there is a change in technology that leads to an increase in income. Because people have more income, better life standards, the birth rate increases and exceeds the death rate. In the long-run total income would have to be distributed between more people than before and the economy reaches the equilibrium again, in which the birth rate equals the death rate.

In other words, econmic success becomes a reproductive success.

An all-equity firm is considering the following projects:

FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

Projects Y and Z

b. Projects W and Z

c. Projects W and Y

Explanation:

CAPM equation : Expected return = Risk free rate + Beta x (Expected market return - Risk free rate)

W = 4% + [0.85 x (11% - 4%)] = 9.95%

X = 4% + (0.92 x 7%) = 10.44%

Y = 4% + (1.09 x 7%) = 11.63%

Z = 4% + (1.35 x 7%) = 13.45%

Projects Y and Z have an expected return greater than 11%

b. Projects W and Z should be accepted because its expected return is higher than the IRR

c. Project W would be incorrectly rejected because the expected rate of return is less than the overall cost of capital (i.e. 9.95 is less than 11). But its expected rate of return is greater than the IRR

Y would be incorrectly accepted because its expected rate of return is greater than the overall cost of capital but its expected rate of return is less than the IRR
