Molly is considering a project with cash inflows of $811, $924, $638, and $510 over the next four years, respectively. The relevant discount rate is 11.2 percent. What is the net present value of this project if it the start-up cost is $2,700?
a. -$425.91
b. -$131.83
c. -$383.01
d. $10.45
e. $229.50

A. -$425.91

Explanation:

Given that

Start up cost = 2700

Cash inflow 1 = 811

Cash inflow 2 = 924

Cash inflow 3 = 638

Cash inflow 4 = 510

Rate = 11.2% or 0.112

Recall that

NPV = E(CF/1 + i]^n) - initial investment or start up cost

Where

E = summation

CF = Cash flow

i = discount rate

n = years

Thus

NPV = -$2,700 + $811 / 1 + 0.112 + $924 / 1 + 0.112^2 + $638 / 1 + 0.112^3 + $510 / 1 + 0.112^4

NPV = -$425.91

Therefore, NPV = -$425.91

1   all nations face the problem of scarcity because there are limited resources and unlimited wants. nations do not have enough factors of production to produce everything that their population wants. entrepreneurial resources initiate businesses to make new goods and services; labor resources produce goods and services.

2 there are four factors of production: natural resources, labor resources, capital resources, and entrepreneurial resources. natural resources are raw materials from nature that are used to produce goods. trees, water, and grains are natural resources. some natural resources, such as wheat and cattle, are renewable

3 wants

things that you do not need to have in order to survive, but would like to have

needs
