Risky Business is looking at a project with the estimated cash flow as​ follows:

Initial investment at start of​ project:$12,200,000

Cash flow at end of year​ one: $2,196,000

Cash flow at end of years two through​ six:$2,440,000 each year

Cash flow at end of years seven through​ nine:$2,635,200 each year

Cash flow at end of year​ ten: $2,027,077

Risky Business wants to know the payback​ period, NPV,​ IRR, and PI of this project. The appropriate discount rate for the project is 13​%. If the cutoff period is six years for major​ projects, determine whether the management at Risky Business will accept or reject the project under the five different decision models.

What is the payback period for the new project at Risky​ Business?

____years  ​(Round to two decimal​ places.)

Under the payback​ period, this project would be Accepted or rejected?

What is the NPV for the project at Risky​ Business?

​$____(Round to the nearest​ cent.)

Under the NPV​ rule, this project would be Accepted or rejected?

What is the IRR for the new project at Risky​ Business?

____% (Round to two decimal​ places.)

Under the IRR​ rule, this project would be Accepted or rejected?

What is the PI for the new project at Risky​ Business?

______ ​(Round to two decimal​ places.)

1. What value would find_small_index return for the following array?

[0]    [1] [2]    [3]   [4]   [5]    [6]   [7]   [8] [9]

2. Assume that the array in question 1 is being used, will the value of the Boolean expression in the if statement in find_small_index be true or false when index is equal to 3 in the for loop? Explain your answer.

3.What is the point of the assignment small_index = start_index; at the beginning of find_small_index? How does this help the function to accomplish its goal?

4. start_index is increased by 1 each time through the loop in main. When find_small_index is called with start_index equal to 5, what must be true about the array values in indexes 0 through 4?

5. In the while loop in main, start_index only goes up to 8 (start_index < 9). Explain why the loop does not need to run when start_index equals 9 (the last index in the array).

6. In swap_values, swapper is declared as an int type. Why?

Assume set of input alphabets = {a, b} If last digit = 0, 1, 2 OR 3 Solve the following Design and Turing Machine that Accepts only odd length palindromes and rejects all the remaining strings If last digit = 4, 5 OR 6 Solve the following Design and Turing Machine that Accepts only even length palindromes and rejects all the remaining strings If last digit = 7, 8 OR 9 Solve the following Design and Turing Machine that Accepts palindromes (both even and odd length) and rejects all the remaining strings

Question 4:

Sprinkler Co. utilizes process costing in its manufacturing company for a product that passes through two departments. Data relating to the product processed in Department 2, during March are presented as follows:

Beginning WIP Inventory had total costs of $119,000. Of this amount, $19,000 related to direct materials. The remainder related to conversion costs.

During the period, the following costs were added: $62,080 of direct materials and $396,240 of conversion costs.

Additional information is available as follows:

Required:

a. Compute the equivalent units for the month for Department 2, according to the FIFO method of accounting for units.
b. Calculate the cost per equivalent unit using the FIFO method of costing. Round answer to two decimal places.
c. Prepare a cost reconciliation report for the period for Department 2 using the FIFO method of costing.

2. The company is considering a project involving the purchase of new equipment. Change the data area of your worksheet to match the following: Use Exhibit 12B-1 and Exhibit 12B-2. (Use appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided.)

a. What is the net present value of the project? (Negative amount should be indicated by a minus sign. Round your present value factor to 3 decimals and round all other intermediate calculations to nearest whole dollar.)

c. The internal rate of return is between what two whole discount rates (e.g., between 10% and 11%, between 11% and 12%, between 12% and 13%, between 13% and 14%, etc.)?

d. Reset the discount rate to 18%. Suppose the salvage value is uncertain. How large would the salvage value have to be to result in a positive net present value?

Exercise 7-28 Departmental Cost Allocation [LO 7-3, 7-5]

HomeLife Life Insurance Company has two service departments (actuarial and premium rating) and two production departments (advertising and sales). The distribution of each service department’s efforts (in percentages) to the other departments is shown in the following table:

The direct operating costs of the departments (including both variable and fixed costs) are:

Required:

1. Determine the total costs of the advertising and sales departments after using the direct method or allocation.

2. Determine the total costs of the advertising and sales departments after using the step method of allocation.

3. Determine the total costs of the advertising and sales departments after using the reciprocal method of allocation.

Do you think that there is any connection between the cognitive shifts that children make between about five and seven years of age and the fact that most cultures with formal education systems begin children's schooling at this age period? Are these shifts continuous or discontinuous?

To answer this question, address the following points, some of which are covered in detail in one of Watson's lectures:

Detail the many shifts that occur between five and seven years of age.

Talk about the cognitive characteristics of the end product, the child in the concrete operational stage.

Discuss the differences between the preschooler (age 3-5) and the school age (age 7-11) child in terms of how they think differently.

Speculate as to why this shift might or might not make children ready for school.

Are these shifts continuous, as Bandura would assert, or they discontinuous, as Piaget believed? Defend your answer.
