Q1

a)

Given the following cashflows for Project Omega, what is the payback period in years assuming the cashflows occur annually?

b)

Yes

No

c)

he cashflows for an investment in Factory X are listed below. Using the discounted payback method of capital budgeting, what is the payback period for this investment expressed in years, assuming that the cashflows occur annually and using a discount rate of 20%.  

QUESTION 37

Because of the problems of adverse selection and moral hazard, it has been suggested that the World Bank and International Monetary Fund

Questions on Mutually Exclusive Equal-length (MEEL) Projects.

The following questions relate to these two projects, each with r_occ = 10.0%. The table shows cash flows for each project.

1.What is the BCR of project A? Write your answer to two decimal places.

2.What is the NPV of project A? Write your answer to two decimal places.

3.What is the BCR of Project B? Write your answer to two decimal places.

4.What is the NPV of Project B? Write your answer to two decimal places.

5.If you have an unlimited budget, which project should you choose

Not enough information is provided to answer this question.

Neither.

Project B)

Project A)

They are both equally good.

6.What is your reasoning behind your answer to the above question?

This project adds the most value (wealth) to my firm.

When analysis methods conflict, the projects are assumed to be of equal value

My money will grow at the fastest rate with this project.

This project has the biggest bang for each dollar of cash invested.

7.Why?

This combination gives the highest cumulative IRR

This combination gives the highest total BCR

This set gives the highest total NPV.

This set minimizes costs while providing an overall positive NPV,

8.Payback Method Question.

D) A and B

C) A method that relies on analysis of GAAP financial statements

B) A method that is good for evaluating low-risk, long-duration projects

A) A DCF Method

E) None of the other mentioned answers

Three different companies each purchased trucks on January 1, 2018, for $80,000. Each truck was expected to last four years or 250,000 miles. Salvage value was estimated to be $4,000. All three trucks were driven 78,000 miles in 2018, 55,000 miles in 2019, 50,000 miles in 2020, and 70,000 miles in 2021. Each of the three companies earned $69,000 of cash revenue during each of the four years. Company A uses straight-line depreciation, company B uses double-declining-balance depreciation, and company C uses units-of-production depreciation.
Answer each of the following questions. Ignore the effects of income taxes.

a-1. Calculate the net income for 2018? (Round "Per Unit Cost" to 3 decimal places.)

a-2. Which company will report the highest amount of net income for 2018?

b-1. Calculate the net income for 2021? (Round "Per Unit Cost" to 3 decimal places.)

b-2. Which company will report the lowest amount of net income for 2021?

c-1. Calculate the book value on the December 31, 2020, balance sheet? (Round "Per Unit Cost" to 3 decimal places.)

c-2. Which company will report the highest book value on the December 31, 2020, balance sheet?

d-1. Calculate the retained earnings on the December 31, 2021, balance sheet?

d-2. Which company will report the highest amount of retained earnings on the December 31, 2021, balance sheet?

E.Which company will report the lowest amount of cash flow from operating activities on the 2020 statement of cash flows?

8. Star Search
A particular talent competition has 5 judges, each of whom awards a score between 0 and
10 to each performer. Fractional scores, such as 8.3, are allowed. A performer’s final score
is determined by dropping the highest and lowest score received, then averaging the 3
remaining scores. Write a program that uses these rules to calculate and display a
contestant’s score. It should include the following functions:
• void getJudgeData() should ask the user for a judge’s score, store it in a reference
parameter variable, and validate it. If the user does not enter valid value, keep displaying error message shown in test cases until the user types in the valid value. This function should be called by main once for each
of the 5 judges.
• double calcScore() should calculate and return the average of the 3 scores that
remain after dropping the highest and lowest scores the performer received. This
function should be called just once by main and should be passed the 5 scores.
Two additional functions, described below, should be called by calcScore, which uses the
returned information to determine which of the scores to drop.
• double findLowest() should find and return the lowest of the 5 scores passed to it.
• double findHighest() should find and return the highest of the 5 scores passed to it.

test case

Judge #1 - Please enter a score between 0.0 and 10.0 : 5

Judge #2 - Please enter a score between 0.0 and 10.0 : 6.5

Judge #3 - Please enter a score between 0.0 and 10.0 : 9.5

Judge #4 - Please enter a score between 0.0 and 10.0 : 5.5

Judge #5 - Please enter a score between 0.0 and 10.0 : 6

Final Score : 6

An economist estimates a 65% probability that the economy will expand next year. The technology sector has a 70% probability of outperforming the market if the economy expands and a 20% probability of outperforming the market if the economy does not expand. Given the new information that the technology sector will not outperform the market, what is the probability that the economy will not expand?
