Answer:

B. Business Case

Explanation:

The program management plan is a document that updates the progress of any project. So, option A is wrong.

SWOT analysis provides the internal and external strengths and opportunities of any corporation. So, this is also incorrect.

The guiding principle gives a company to adhere to the rules and responsibilities. Therefore, it is not correct.

The business case summarizes the project by describing the benefits of a selected component. It also emphasizes to initiate a project. So, it is the right answer.

Final answer:

A business case is the document that describes the benefits of a project component, providing the basis for authorizing further management activities, including a cost/benefit analysis, and aligning with overall strategy to ensure the project's success.

Explanation:

The document in question that summarizes why a project is important by describing the benefits of a selected component, and is used as a basis for authorizing further project management activities is called a business case. A business case outlines the justification for undertaking a project or task. It is the assessment of the full lifecycle of a project including a cost/benefit analysis and typically includes the reasons why the project is needed and expected to be profitable or beneficial.

Forming a solid business case can include a detailed decision making process, considering constraints and criteria for the project, and understanding the audience it is intended to serve. This enables stakeholders to make informed decisions regarding the project's feasibility and potential for success. Moreover, it sets the foundation for additional elements such as program management and ensures alignment with the overall strategy.

A successful business case plays a crucial role in obtaining the necessary approvals and funding to move a project forward. The investment of effort in crafting a thorough and persuasive business case can lead to more effective project management and ultimately a more successful outcome.

Answer:

The correct answer is  C. 7.22 percent

Explanation:

To find the arithmetic risk premium for the 5 year period, the formula is

Average risk premium for the period =  Sum of risk premium for each year /  number of years = ∑ra(i) - rf(i) / n

ra = asset or investment return / 100

rf = risk free return / 100

Where i represents each year.

Sum of risk premium for each year = (0.187 - 0.052) + (0.058 - 0.034) + (0.079 - 0.028) + (0.108 - 0.034) + (0.116 - 0.039) = 0.361

Average risk premium = 0.361 / 5 = 0.0722 = 7.22 / 100 = 7.22 percent

Answer:

Customer value

Explanation:

Customer value is a marketing term representing the satisfaction or experience or benefit a customer gets from a product in exchange for the value they give to have access to the satisfaction.

In the future term, it also represents the benefit a customer expects to get from a product mostly based on the promises of the vendor in exchange for the payment or value the customer is expected to transfer to the producer for the product.

The value a customer is to give to derive the satisfaction is not limited to monetary transfers it could also include time, knowledge, even other choice products that could have offered similar benefits. Customer value will help a customer decide whether the benefit from a product is worth the expense or value given to obtain it.

Answer:

C) ​$6.25 million

Explanation:

Compensating wage differentials are paid to workers so that they accept tasks that are considered dangerous or hazardous.

A worker’s utility function is:

Utility = f (w, risk of injury)

Dahlia's safe job utility function = f(60000, 0.0002)

Dahlia's riskier job utility function = f(65000, 0.001)

A 400% increase in risk will increase Dahlia's salary by $5,000,

When you are using the compensation differential approach, you can determine the value of a life by dividing the compensating differential by the increased chance of death.

($65,000 - $60,000) / (1/1000 - 1/5,000) = $5,000 / 0.0008 = $6,250,000

Answer:

Depends on the reserve ratio, which in turn determines the money multiplier.

Explanation:

The money multiplier formula = 1 / reserve ratio

For example, if the reserve ratio is 10%, the money multiplier will be 10. If the reserve ratio is 20%, the money multiplier will be 5.

To calculate the total effect of a $20 billion inflow, you must multiply that amount by the money multiplier:

E.g. $20 billion x 10 = $200 billion, or $20 billion x 5 = $100 billion

Final answer:

The Federal Reserve's injection of $20 billion can create additional money through the commercial banking system by up to $100 billion, given a 20% reserve requirement. This expansion results from the fractional reserve banking system's multiplier effect.

Explanation:

When the Federal Reserve supplies $20 billion into the commercial banking system, it can lead to a multiplier effect on the money supply due to the fractional reserve banking system. Commercial banks are required to keep a fraction of deposits as reserves and can lend out the rest. The proportion they must keep is determined by the required reserve ratio set by the Federal Reserve.

For example, with a reserve ratio of 20%, this initial injection can theoretically result in an expansion of the money supply up to five times the initial amount, which is $100 billion dollars. However, this simplified calculation assumes that all of the money lent out is redeposited in the banking system and no one holds cash, which in reality, might not be the case.

If the required reserve ratio is 0.2 and the Fed purchases $2 billion worth of bonds, the money supply could potentially expand by $10 billion. It works as follows: the initial $2 billion increase in reserves can be multiplied by the money multiplier, which is the inverse of the reserve ratio. In this scenario, the money multiplier is 1/0.2 = 5. Therefore, the total potential increase in the money supply is 2 billion times 5, which equals $10 billion.

Answer:

enterprise social

Explanation:

Enterprise social networks (ESN) refer to an internal privately owned social network that includes only the members of an organization. E.g. a F@cebook only for people that work on F@cebook.

The purpose of having an enterprise social network is to improve communication and networking among the organization's members. ESN were popular a few years ago, but lately they have been set aside and they lost a lot popularity. People are too busy on their normal social networks to also have to worry about their work social networks. The only exception to this failure is probably Wh@tsapp that continues to be extremely popular within work groups.

Answer: Style 1 should be used

Explanation: Because this is a directing approach. it is high directive and low supportive. It focuses on communication for goal achievement and is less supporting.

The dividend per share of stock for Super Widget Corporation is $2.125, and Kevin Rainey's share of the declared dividend, for the 50 shares he owns, amounts to $106.25.

The dividend per share of stock that Super Widget Corporation declares can be calculated by dividing the total declared dividends by the number of shares outstanding. In this case, if Super Widget Corporation declares dividends of $42,500 and has 20,000 shares of stock outstanding, the dividend per share would be calculated as follows:

Dividend per share = Total Dividends ÷ Number of Shares

Dividend per share = $42,500 ÷ 20,000

Dividend per share = $2.125

As to the second part, Kevin Rainey's share of the dividends can be determined by multiplying the dividend per share by the number of shares he owns, which in this case is 50 shares:

Kevin Rainey's dividend = Dividend per share × Number of shares Kevin owns

Kevin Rainey's dividend = $2.125 × 50

Kevin Rainey's dividend = $106.25

Therefore, the dividend per share of stock for Super Widget Corporation is $2.125, and Kevin Rainey's share of the declared dividend is $106.25.

Final answer:

The present value of an annuity paying $10 annually for 98 years at a discount rate of 7% is calculated using the present value of an ordinary annuity formula. An example to illustrate the concept using a simple two-year bond shows how to discount future cash flows at different interest rates to determine present value.

Explanation:

The question asks for the present value (PV) of an annuity that pays $10 per year for 98 years with a discount rate of 7%. To calculate the PV of the annuity, you can use the formula for the present value of an ordinary annuity:

PV = Pmt * [(1 - (1 + r)^-n) / r]

Where Pmt is the annual payment, r is the discount rate per period, and n is the number of periods.

In this case, Pmt is $10, r is 0.07 (7% expressed as a decimal), and n is 98. Plugging these values into the formula gives:

PV = $10 * [(1 - (1 + 0.07)^-98) / 0.07]

After doing the math, this calculation will yield the present value of the annuity. To calculate the present value of the two-year bond with different interest rates, similar principles of discounting future cash flows apply.

For example, if a two-year bond pays $3,000 at the end of the second year plus $240 interest annually at a discount rate of 8%, the calculation would look like this:

PV = $240 / (1 + 0.08) + ($240 + $3000) / (1 + 0.08)^2

And if the discount rate rises to 11%, you would instead use:

PV = $240 / (1 + 0.11) + ($240 + $3000) / (1 + 0.11)^2

Final answer:

The present value of the annuity paying $10 per year for 98 years at a 7% discount rate is about $138.78.

Explanation:

To find the present value (PV) of the annuity, we can use the formula for the present value of an ordinary annuity:

[tex]\[PV = C \times \left(1 - \frac{1}{{(1 + r)^n}}\right) \times \frac{1}{r}\][/tex]

Where:

- C is the amount of each payment (the annual payment of $10).

- r is the discount rate (7% or 0.07 in decimal form).

- n is the number of periods (98 years).

Plugging in the values:

[tex]\[PV = 10 \times \left(1 - \frac{1}{{(1 + 0.07)^{98}}}\right) \times \frac{1}{0.07}\][/tex]

Let's calculate:

[tex]\[PV = 10 \times \left(1 - \frac{1}{{(1.07)^{98}}}\right) \times \frac{1}{0.07}\][/tex]

[tex]\[PV = 10 \times \left(1 - \frac{1}{{33.381082}}\right) \times \frac{1}{0.07}\][/tex]

[tex]\[PV = 10 \times \left(1 - 0.029918\right) \times \frac{1}{0.07}\][/tex]

\[PV = 10 \times 0.970082 \times 14.2857\]

[tex]\[PV = 138.78\][/tex] (approximately)

So, the present value of the annuity, given a discount rate of 7%, is approximately $138.78.

Answer:

9.8%

Explanation:

The return on assets ratio( ROA ) measures the efficiently in which a business manages its assets to generate profits during a period.

The formula for calculating Return on assets is as follows.

return of asset ratio = Net income/ Average Total Assets x 100

For metro corporation:

net income: $ 2,400

Average total assets : = $30,000 +$19,000/2

                                    =$24,500

ROA=  $2400/$24500x100

=0.098 x100

=9.8%

Answer:

True

Explanation:

In this question, we have to compute the average which is shown below:

——————————

Total $100,000

Duffy (80,000/100,000) x 90,000 = $72,000

Gladwin (20,000 x 100,000) x 90,000 = $18,000

JOURNAL ENTRY:

Debit income summary $90,000

Credit Duffy, capital $72,000

Credit Gladwin, capital $18,000

To allocate the net income between partners, Eric Duffy and Johnnie Gladwin, determine their profit-sharing ratio based on their capital balances. Debit Duffy's Capital account for $72,000 and credit Gladwin's Capital account for $18,000 to close the Income Summary account and distribute the net income.

To allocate the net income to the two partners, Eric Duffy and Johnnie Gladwin, we need to calculate their profit-sharing ratio based on their beginning capital balances. The total beginning capital is $100,000 ($80,000 + $20,000). Duffy's share is $80,000 / $100,000 * $90,000 = $72,000, and Gladwin's share is $20,000 / $100,000 * $90,000 = $18,000.

To close the Income Summary account and allocate the net income, we will debit Duffy's Capital account for $72,000 and credit Gladwin's Capital account for $18,000. The journal entry is as follows:

December 31:

Income Summary   $90,000

Answer:

A) company HD pays less in Tax

Explanation:

Because interest is deducted before tax in income statement. Higher interest means less Earning before tax, and less amount of Tax be deducted.

HD and LD both have same Earning before interest and tax.

Let suppose both have  EBIT of $1000,

Not HD has interest expense of 150, and LD has interest expense of $100

Now HD Earning before tax would be 850, and LD EBT would be 900.

Let's say tax is 40%

so,

HD tax would be 850*0.4=340

LD tax would be 900*0.4=360

So, HD pays higher interest, it benefit company in paying lower tax amount. bacause interest is tax saving.

HD saves $20 in this hypothetical example.

Answer: The heat escape lessening posture (HELP)

Explanation: Hypothermia is the effect of long immersion in cold water thereby losing body heat faster.

The heat escape lessening posture helps to combats hypothermia and can be a lifesaver to people in cold water.

The huddle position can also help in preserving the body heat especially when there are two or more people in the water at the same time. Making sure they huddle together keeps them warm.

Final answer:

To prevent hypothermia when abandoning a ship into the water, remove wet clothing, put on insulating layers that slow heat transfer, and stay active to generate body heat. Insulating layers like wetsuits are crucial in these situations. Also, keeping hydrated is important during the survival process.

Explanation:

If a vessel is in distress and the order has been given to abandon ship, to prevent hypothermia after entering the water, it is essential that you use materials designed to slow the heat transfer rate, or thermal insulation. To combat hypothermia effectively, one must remove wet clothing immediately, redress in warm materials, and attempt to maintain physical movement to generate body heat. These measures are critical because they contribute to retaining the body's heat, which is crucial for survival in cold water situations. Additionally, it is important to understand that heat escapes the body through conduction, convection, and radiation, following the Second Law of Thermodynamics. Wearing insulating layers, such as a wetsuit or drysuit, can provide vital protection against the cold. Furthermore, staying hydrated is crucial during any survival situation.

Answer:

What are the two primary ways you can make tax payments? You can make tax payments by having it set up to be automatically withdrawn from your bank account, or you can pay your taxes directly by sending in a check or calling to set up a payment arrangement on the taxes owed.

What is one other way you can pay? The other way to pay your taxes is to have your refund directly sent to them until your balance is paid in full.

3- If you can’t pay immediately, what is one course of action you can take? What are the criteria?

Again, one course of action to pay your taxes is to have your refund directly sent to bureau that you owe. The criteria is that you get penalized and the state can charge you extra interest rate fees if not paid by a certain time

Explanation:

1. The two primary ways of making tax payments by having it set up to be automatically withdrawn from our bank account, or we can pay our taxes directly by sending in a check or calling to set up a payment arrangement on the taxes owed.

A tax is a sum of money that a government requires people to pay based on their income, the value of their property, and other factors, and that is used to pay for government services.

Another option for paying our taxes is to have our refund sent directly to them until your balance is paid in full.

If we are unable to pay our taxes immediately, one option is to have your refund sent directly to the bureau that we owe. If we do not pay by a certain date, we will be penalized, and the state may charge us additional interest rates.

Therefore, automatic withdrawal of tax and sending a check or payment reminder are the primary ways for tax payments.

Answer:

a. $343.7 billion

b.  $331.9 billion

c. $334.1 billion

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

a. For GDP

GDP = Personal consumption expenditures + Government purchases + Net private domestic investment + Consumption of fixed capital + net exports

where,

Net exports = U.S. exports of goods and services - U.S. imports of goods and services

= $17.8 - $16.5

= $1.3 billion

So, the GDP would be

= $219.1 + $59.4 + $52.1 + $11.8 + $1.3

= $343.7 billion

b. For NDP

NDP = GDP - Consumption of fixed capital or depreciation

        = $343.7 - $11.8

        = $331.9 billion

c. For NI

NI = GDP + Net foreign income

    = $331.9 billion + 2.2 billion

    = $334.1 billion

All values are in billions

To compute GDP, add up the given components. To find NDP, subtract consumption of fixed capital from GDP. To find NI, subtract taxes on production and imports from NDP and add net foreign income.

To compute GDP, we need to add up the following components:

Adding these components together gives us: $194.2B + $17.8B + $11.8B + $59.4B + $14.4B + $52.1B + $13.9B - $16.5B = $346.1B

This is the value of GDP.

To calculate NDP, we need to subtract consumption of fixed capital from GDP. So, NDP = GDP - Consumption of fixed capital = $346.1B - $11.8B = $334.3B

Finally, to compute NI, we need to subtract taxes on production and imports from NDP and add net foreign income: NI = NDP - Taxes on production and imports + Net foreign income = $334.3B - $14.4B + $2.2B = $322.1B
