Question 1

A project has the following cash flows:

CF 0 –$15,000
CF 1 $4,500
CF 2 $6,800
CF 3 $6,000
CF 4 $4,800

Assuming a required rate of return of 16%, what is this project’s PI?


0.85


1.03


1.20


1.33



Question 2

A small manufacturer is considering two alternative machines. Machine A costs $1.4 million, has an expected life of 5 years, and generates after-tax cash flows of $450,000 per year. At the end of 5 years, the salvage value of the machine is zero, but the company will be able to purchase another Machine A at a cost of $1.3 million. The second Machine A will generate after-tax cash flows of $475,000 a year for another 5 years, at which time its salvage value will again be zero. Alternatively, the company can buy Machine B at a cost of $1.9 million today. Machine B will produce after-tax cash flows of $500,000 a year for 10 years, after which it will have an after-tax salvage value of $100,000. Assume that the cost of capital is 13%. Based on the equivalent annual annuity, if the company chooses the machine that adds the most value to the firm, by how much will the company’s value increase per year?

$79,757.41


$155,278.80


$383,946.95


$842,580.57

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
