Dwight Donovan, the president of Walton Enterprises, is considering two investment opportunities. Because of limited resources, he will be able to invest in only one of them. Project A is to purchase a machine that will enable factory automation; the machine is expected to have a useful life of five years and no salvage value. Project B supports a training program that will improve the skills of employees operating the current equipment. Initial cash expenditures for Project A are $103,000 and for Project B are $48,000. The annual expected cash inflows are $26,481 for Project A and $13,982 for Project B. Both investments are expected to provide cash flow benefits for the next five years. Walton Enterprises’ desired rate of return is 6 percent. (PV of $1 and PVA of $1) (Use appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided.)

 

Compute the net present value of each project. Which project should be adopted based on the net present value approach?
Compute the approximate internal rate of return of each project. Which one should be adopted based on the internal rate of return approach?
*****What is the net present value for project A & B?

*****What is the approximate internal rate of return for Project A & B?

 

USING THE SCENARIO ABOVE

 

 

Hi, I am looking for someone to write an article on what is so new about new terrorism Paper must be at least 2250 words. Please, no plagiarized work! There has been no specific and conclusive definition to describe the term terrorism, but linguists concur that it is a pejorative term. It is a pejorative term because when a person or people employ the term, they refer to the actions of their enemies as something evil that doesn’t possess any human compassion. Merari (1993) argued that there are some specific elements that should compose the definition of terrorism and they include: violence. political objectives. and the aim of spreading fear in a target population. There has been endless debate in the present time to distinguish between new and old forms of terrorism. The definition of terrorism has not changed, the religious, political, and ideological goals are the same (Sloan, 2006).

Though the main purpose of terrorism has not changed many policymakers, scholars, consultants, political analysts, and journalists seem to concur that terrorism of the past is very different from the “new” terrorism. The new terrorism is argued to have taken precedence in the mid-1990s, which is a complete change in terms of characteristics and form. The concept of “new terrorism” has different actors, aims, actions, tactics, and motivations in comparison with the concept of “old terrorism.” The disaster of 9/11 is said to be preventable if the policymakers and other government elite could have recognized that new terrorism is different from old terrorism. Though it is very important for the political class to find new techniques to handle “new” terrorism, there is really nothing new to the new terrorism. All the definitions that are presented have a unanimous claim that terrorism has the following distinctive features:

2. Motive- the type of terrorism that is carried out depends on the type of motivation. Whether old or new terrorism if there was no social or political motive, the violent act was regarded as criminal.

4. Victims- in the definitions of terrorism they concur that any form of assault against civilians is terrorism. The most controversial aspect of this is the victims can either be innocent or the targets.&nbsp.
