Consuela is a business analyst for her company. She is working from home and on a video conference with several other team members. Her video conferencing client displays a message indicating that the quality of her connection is unstable. What is the most likely problem
Answer: c) Latency between her VPN client removing encryption and making it available to the video-conferencing client is causing poor performance.
Explanation:
A Virtual Private Network (VPN) is used to protect the identity of people online as it encrypts a person's data and uses different servers to allow them browse the web and with a different IP address from the user's original IP address that way it appears as though the user is somewhere else in the world than they actually are.
In doing this however, VPNs might give slow speeds due to the latency that develops as the VPN encrypts and decrypts data for use. In this case, the VPN latency in decrypting the video call for Consuela to see it is slowing down the speed of the Video conferencing client.
You company requires that all projects yield a return of 12%. You’re the head of a project team developing a new product. The initial investment needed is $500,000 and the expected cashflows from this project will be 70,000 for the next 10 years. Will your project be approved, (generates a return higher than 12%). What cashflow would be required to get your project approved?
Answer:
initial investment = $500,000
10 cash flows of $70,000
Present value of cash flows = 5.65022 * $70,000 = $395,515.40
NPV = -$500,000 + $395,515.40 = -$104,484.60
The project should be rejected.
In order to approve the project, the cash flows should = $500,000 / 5.65022 = $88,492.13. With these cash flows the NPV = $0.
Crane Company has old inventory on hand that cost $7500. Its scrap value is $10000. The inventory could be sold for $25000 if manufactured further at an additional cost of $7500. What should Crane do
Answer:
If the company reworks the units, income will increase by $7,500
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
The initial cost should not be taken into account.
Sell as-is:
Selling price= $10,000
Rework:
Additional cost= $7,500
Selling price= $25,000
We need to determine which option is most profitable.
Sell as-is:
Effect on income= $10,000
Rework:
Effect on income= 25,000 - 7,500= $17,500
If the company reworks the units, income will increase by $7,500
Hi guys, I need your help to give your opinions about this one.
Example:
The experts on your island warn of a possible tsunami, but opinions are divided.
a. A quarter of the experts (group A) assume that a tsunami will certainly come.
b. Three quarters of the experts (group B) assume that the tsunami will come with a 10 percent probability.
Which professionals (group A or group B) would you like to believe more and why? Give reasons for your answer. And what are the consequences of this decision for your actions? And how do you deal with the risks of a wrong decision?
I would believe group A more
because, as we know "Precaution is always better an cure"
If I stay more cautious about it, there are less chances of the tsunami to cause a severe harm. If I don't stay much cautious, according to group B, and in case if their prediction goes wrong, I'll be in serious danger.
I chose group A because
even if the tsunami ain't powerful enough, I would be glad I was careful enough for it and it'll help me in future if I face another situation like this again
The consequences if I chose group B would be :
well, if I would have chose B, I won't have taken any Precautions at all
I won't have been careful enough
and in case their prediction went wrong, I would have to suffer high losses.
I hope it helps.... Have a great time ahead!
A manager has determined that a potential new product can be sold at a price of $25 each. The cost to produce the product is $17.5, but the equipment necessary for production must be leased for $75,000 per year. What is the break-even point
Answer:
10,000 units
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the break-even point
Using this formula
Break-even point = Fixed cost / [Selling Price - Cost Price]
Let plug in the formula
Break-even point = $75,000 / [$25 - $17.5]
Break-even point = $75,000 / [$7.5]
Break-even point = 10,000 units
Therefore the break-even point is 10,000 units
You want to borrow $91,000 from your local bank to buy a new sailboat. You can afford to make monthly payments of $1,750, but no more. Assuming monthly compounding, what is the highest rate you can afford on a 60-month APR loan
Answer:
5.784%
Explanation:
PV = $91000
PMT = -$1750
N = 60
FV = $0
Using the financial calculator to solve for I/Y
Interest yield = CPT I/Y(91000, -1750, 60, 0)
Interest yield = 0.00482
Interest yield = 0.482%
Highest rate APR = 0.482%*12
Highest rate APR = 5.784%
So, assuming monthly compounding, the highest rate i can afford on a 60-month APR loan is 5.784%.

Accounting costs and economic costs differ because A) Economic costs include explicit costs and accounting costs do not. B) Accounting costs include explicit costs and economic costs do not. C) Economic costs include implicit costs and accounting costs do not. D) Accounting costs include implicit costs and economic costs do not.
Answer:
C) Economic costs include implicit costs and accounting costs do not.
Explanation:
Economic cost can be calculated as follow
Economic Cost = Explicit cost + Implicit cost
Whereas, the Implicit cost is calculated as follow
Accounting cost = Explicit cost
Hence, the difference between the economic cost and accounting cost is only the implicit cost.
Implicit cost is the opportunity cost.
Economic costs include implicit costs, such as opportunity costs, while accounting costs only consider explicit costs, such as monetary expenses. Therefore, option C is correct.
Economic costs encompass the full measure of costs incurred in pursuing a particular course of action. They extend beyond explicit monetary expenses and include implicit costs, such as opportunity costs. Opportunity costs represent the value of the next-best alternative forgone when making a decision.
Economic costs reflect the total resources and opportunities sacrificed, both explicit and implicit, to undertake a specific activity or venture.
By accounting for both explicit and implicit costs, economic costs provide a more comprehensive assessment of the true cost of a decision or action, considering the value of all foregone opportunities and resources used in the process.
Therefore, option C is correct.

An investment banker agrees to underwrite an issue of 10 million shares of stock for TWResearch, Inc. on a firm commitment basis. The investment banker pays $10.50 per share to TWResearch, Inc. for the 10 million shares of stock. It then sells those shares to the public for $11.20 per share.
If the investment bank can sell the shares for $9.75 per share, what is the profit (loss) to the investment banker?
a) Profit of $1,000,000.
b) Loss of $7,500,000.
c) Profit of $7,000,000.
d) Loss of $7,000,000.\
e) Loss of $1,000,000.
Answer: b) Loss of $7,500,000.
Explanation:
The total the investment bank paid when underwriting was:
= 10.50 * 10,000,000 shares
= $105,000,000
The total they then sell to the public is:
= 9.75 * 10,000,000
= $97,500,000
The profit is:
= Selling revenue from public - Buying cost from company
= 97,500,000 - 105,000,000
= -$7,500,000
Label each of the following statements true, false, or uncertain. Explain your choice carefully.
a. The present discounted value of a stream of returns can be calculated in real or nominal terms.
b. The higher the one-year interest rate, the lower the present discounted value of a payment next year.
c. Interest rates are normally expected to be constant over time.
d. Bonds are a claim to a sequence of constant payments over a number of years.
e. The yield curve normally slopes up.
Answer:
a. The present discounted value of a stream of returns can be calculated in real or nominal terms. TRUE
This is true because the present value of returns can be calculated using nominal rates which do not account for inflation, or using real rates which will account for inflation.
b. The higher the one-year interest rate, the lower the present discounted value of a payment next year. TRUE
Higher interest rates discount payments faster because they discount by dividing the payment so a higher rate would divide the payment more and lead to a lower present value.
c. Interest rates are normally expected to be constant over time. FALSE
Interest rates change over time in response to economic conditions.
d. Bonds are a claim to a sequence of constant payments over a number of years. TRUE
As a bondholder, you are entitled to payments over the life of the bond which means that it is a claim to constant payment over a number of years.
e. The yield curve normally slopes up. TRUE
The yield curve slopes upward to represent that interest rates increase in future.
Assume that a stock is expected to pay dividends at the end of Year 1 and Year 2 of $1.25 and $1.56, respectively. Dividends are expected to grow at a 5% rate thereafter. Assuming that ke is 11%, the value of the stock is closest to:___.
A. $22.3.B. $23.42.C. $24.55.
Answer:
C. $24.55
Explanation:
Calculation to determine what the value of the stock is closest to:
Value of the stock =($1.25 / 1.11) + [1.56/ (0.11 -0.05)] / 1.11
Value of the stock =[1.126126+(1.56/0.06)]/1.11
Value of the stock = $24.55.
Therefore the value of the stock is closest to:$24.55
Calculate the annual coupon payment if the semi-annual coupon paying bond price is $920, the yield for the bond is 6%, the bond's face value is $1,000 and matures in 9 years. (Enter the answer in dollar format without $ sign or thousands comma -> 3519.23 and not $3,519.23 or 3,519.23)
Answer:
$48.40
Explanation:
Yield = 6%
Rate = Yield/2 = 6%/2 = 3%
YTM = 9
Nper = YTM*2 = 9*2 = 18
Face value = $1,000
Price(PV) = $920
Monthly payment = PMT(0.03, 18, -920, 1000)
Monthly payment = $24.1833
Coupon rate = (PMT/Face value) * 2
Coupon rate = (24.1833/1000) * 2
Coupon rate = 0.0241833 * 2
Coupon rate = 0.0483666
Coupon rate = 4.84%
Annual coupon payment = Face value * Coupon rate
Annual coupon payment = $1000 * 4.84%
Annual coupon payment = $48.40

The difference between a low-cost provider strategy and a focused low-cost strategy is Multiple choice question. the company's willingness to accept a lower profit margin. the uniqueness of the product or service. the size of the company's targeted buyer group. the length of the value chain.
Answer:
the size of the company's targeted buyer group.
Explanation:
Low cost strategies are used by sellers to gain more patronage of their products. It gives them competitive advantage of having low prices and this will in turn increase sales.
The low-cost provider strategy involves a reduction in prices of all the products a company sells in all locations while still making a profut. An appeal is made to a broad market to attract customers in mass.
The focused low-cost strategy on the other hand involves cost reduction in a targeted niche. It does not appeal to the broad market but rather to a specific customer profile.
So the difference between these two strategies is the size of the company's targeted buyer group.

Morphe believes that, if Jaclyn cancelled the contract, Morphe could sell the palettes to another firm and still make a profit. The manufacturing contract is expected to last six months, and as of December 31, 2021, the job is 80% complete. How much revenue should Morphe recognize in 2021 for this contract
Answer:
the revenue that should be recognized is $48,000
Explanation:
The computation of the revenue that should be recognized is shown below;
= Total price of the contract × Percentage of completion of the contract
= $60,000 × 80%
= $48,000
By multiplying the total contract price with the percentage we can get the revenue recognized
hence, the revenue that should be recognized is $48,000
