You’re considering 2 investment projects. Option 1 involves $1 million upfront investment and has been evaluated to yield $300K for 5 years from year 1 on. Option 2 involves $1.35 million and will yield of 300K for 7 years from year 1 on for the next 7 years. A) Assuming a risk adjusted rate of 9%, evaluate the value of the investments over the duration. Which one would you consider as worthwhile to invest in?
Suppose your firm is considering investing in a project with the cash flows shown below, that the required rate of return on projects of this risk class is 11 percent, and that the maximum allowable payback and discounted payback statistic for the project are 2 and 3 years, respectively. Time 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 Cash Flow -1,040 140 460 660 660 260 660 Use the NPV decision rule to evaluate this project; should it be accepted or rejected?
The cash flow diagram below shows the net cash generated (A) every year with initial (1) investment requirement for a certain project whose lifetime is n=8 years with negligible (i.e. zero) salvage value at end of life. It is known that a simple payback period is three (3) years. What is the implied minimum acceptable rate of return (MARR) given this information? A >H I yrs.

H4. Work out the value of European Call on a risky asset A, currently selling at $600. The European Call has a term to maturity of 1.5 years and a strike price of $675. SD(dA/A), the volatility of returns on the risky asset is 18% per year, and the discrete risk-free rate is 0.9% per year
1. A project requires an initial capital cost of (40 million ID). The investor expects the project will generate annual returns of (12 million ID), with expenditures about (4 million ID) annually. If you know that the economic life is (12) years, and the salvage value after the end of the economic life is (4 million ID). Considering that the less acceptable interest rate for the investor is (10%): A. Determining the economic feasibility for investing using the present worth method? B. What is the equivalent annual worth of this investment? C. Find the internal rate of return?
Consider the six indivisible investment alternatives shown below. The planning horizon is 8 years. The MARR is 15%. $60,000 is available for investment. a. Which investments should be made in order to maximize present worth? b. Solve part a when investments N and P are mutually exclusive and R is contingent on Q.
Trestle Corporation wants to purchase a new finishing machine. They currently have an old machine, which is operable for five more years and is expected to have a zero-disposal value at the end of five years. If the company buys the new machine, the old machine will be sold now for $95,000 (book value is $75,000). The new machine will cost $635,000 and will be depreciated for tax purposes on a straight-line basis over its useful life of 5 years. The new machine will not have a salvage value and will not be sold after its useful life. An additional cash investment in working capital of $25,000 will be required if the new machine is purchased. The investment is expected to net $80,000 in before tax cash inflows during the first year of operation and $235,000 each additional year of use. These cash flows do not include depreciation and are recognized at the end of each year. The working capital investment will not be recovered at the end of the asset's life. The company's tax rate is 32%.

Question 4a) A firm has a choice between two investment projects, all of which involve an initial outlay of GH¢36,000. The returns at the end of the next 4 years are given below. If the interest rate is 15%, say whether each project is viable or not, and which is the best investment.Year Project A Project B1 15,000 5,0002 15,000 10,0003 15,000 20,0004 15,000 25,000All values are given in GH¢. b) A factory increase its production by 712% and produced 1290 tonnes. How many tonnes did she produce before? c) If we place GH¢100 in the savings account that yields 12% compounded quarterly, what nearest GH¢ would our investment grow to at the end of 5 years?
7. Future values (S2.1) Compute the future value of a $100 investment for the following combinations of rates and times. = 6%, t = 10 years. b. r= 6%, t = 20 years. c. r = 4%, t = 10 years. d. r = 4%, t = 20 years. a. r =
