Viability Report on JV

There lies a distinguishing characteristic of Multinational Corporation (MNC) in contrast with a collection of independent national firms dealing at arm’s length is, its ability to move money to its affiliates through internal transfer mechanism. In multinational financial system there is transfer of goods, services, technology and capital.
In the interest of facilitating stronger sustainable profitability and growth, decisions on resource allocation in organizations require a systematic, analytical and though approach as well as sound judgement. Project and investment appraisals and capital budgeting which involves assessing the financial feasibility of a report should use Discounted Cash Flow(DCF) analysis as a supporting ...

Dear Texas Bob,

The calculations made were based on formulas we deem fit. In obtaining the income, we used the cash flow method, which is simply the difference between the cash that flows in versus the cash that flows out of the business. That method would prove to be more accurate since in the retail food industry, cash is considered king.
Likewise, we discounted the values using the present value formula. We deem it important that the time value of money shall be considered to accurately reflect the amounts, not in a nominal sense, but in its real sense.
Lastly, we also ...

Administrative modification, powered by an extension of information technology, may have underwrote to the erosion of the previously established relationship between company size and the quantitative investment appraisal criteria selected. Seemingly, companies are by means of utilizing more methods composed, while the use of the more urbane discounted cash flow. However, systems are sophisticated, and that use of the less hypothetically sound accounting rate of return technique seems to be reduced, than aforementioned studies would have recommended of businesses .
Consequently, accounting modification may result from procedures ascending within an organization in which it is operational, while as of ...

1. Time value analysis is the concept implemented when there is a necessity to identify future value of one unit of a currency supposed to be received in several years or the amount of money supposed to be received in future from one unit of currency invested today. The basic concept of time value of money analysis is that the value of alternative investments depends on the time when they will be exchanged. Interest rate may not cover inflation rate contributing to the differences between the present and future values of investments (Khan Academy, 2013).
Time value analysis is a tool ...

Net present value

NPV is gotten by subtracting cash outflows from the sum cash inflows from the project investment. To get current values, a discounted rate used which is the rate of return or the opportunity cost of capital. The opportunity cost of capital is the rate of return that an investor could earn if the money would have invested in financial assets of equal risk (Gollier, 2009). It’s therefore, the return that an investor would expect to receive. It’s vital in capital budgeting because of the determination of the expected profits from the projects to be invested if approved ...

The strategy explains the idea of how businesses successfully create competitive advantages in the market place. It reflects that battling with the competitors is not a successful tactic to succeed from competitor. Rather a company can succeed in competition by creating a “blue ocean” in the market place that is still uncontested. According to the Mauborgne and Kim, this strategic policy enhanced the value of a business by increasing the values foe employees and customers. They further explain that the strategy helps in exploring the new potential markets. In this way, a business enjoys a monopoly in the newly discovered market, as there are no ...

1086F Origin and Geology of the Solar System

- Introduction
An exoplanet is a term used to describe a planet that is located outside the solar system that includes the Earth (exoplanet, 2013). Astronomer Peter van Kamp made the first announcement of the discovery of an exoplanet in 1963, however, that discovery failed to hold up over time and now has been conclusively disproved (Matson, 2013). The first exoplanet discovery that has stood the test of time was the discovery of two bodies orbiting a neutron star in a system named PSR 1257+12 (Wolszczan and Frail, 1992). Wolszczan and Frail calculated that the masses of these exoplanets would be ...

Introduction

Osmosis refers to the net water movement across a membrane, which is selectively permeable and the movement is driven by a difference in the concentration of the solutes on the opposite sides of the membrane. A selectively permeable membrane allows water to pass through without allowing ions or solute molecules to pass through. Other small molecules that are not charged are also allowed to pass through the membrane. Diffusion, on the other hand, refers to the movement of molecules in a random motion as a result of the kinetic energy and causes the molecules to have a net movement from areas where the particles ...
