- Give typing answer with explanation and conclusion Singing Fish Fine Foods is considering two potential projects for the funds. Each will cost $2,000,000 for capital investments. Project 1 is updating the deli section of the store for additional food service. The estimated annual after-tax cash flow of this project is $600,000 per year for the next five years. Project 2 is updating the store’s wine section. The estimated annual after-tax cash flow for this project is $530,000 for the next six years. The appropriate discount rate for the deli expansion is 9.5% and the appropriate discount rate for the wine section is 9.0%. If the two projects are independent, use the NPV to determine which project(s) Singing Fish should choose for the store.

Assume that as a local government financial analyst you are asked to project the feasibility of a loan to a proposed public service venture for its start-up funding. The venture’s principals estimate that, at the end of 5 years, they will be able to pay back up to $800,000 from revenues accruing to the venture’s activities. Assuming that your organization’s current “average cost of capital” is 4.8% (the “discount rate”). Assuming monthly compounding, what is the maximum amount your government can commit to the venture for its start-up?

- MGMT2023 - Financial Management 1-UWI Open Campus Stephanie Carter has been gifted a sum of $50,000 by her grandparents on completing her graduation successfully. She is a fresh finance graduate and is excited to invest some money in the capital market, for which she intends to use the gifted sum of $50,000. However, instead of committing this money to the market immediately, she decides to wait for some time, work in the field and acquire some experience before proceeding with her intended investment. She thus contemplates an extremely conservative investment in a portfolio of stocks and bonds, at the start of year 5 from now. For now, she will leave the $50,000 in a fixed deposit with the bank which promises an interest rate of 6% per annum. She will require a return of at least 9% on her stock investments and 4% on bond investments. Stephanie would have to pay 25% taxes on any interest income. Dividends will be tax-free.
