Approximately 14 million americans are addicted to drugs and alcohol. the federal government estimates that these addicts cost the u. s. economy $300 billion in medical expenses and lost productivity. despite the enormous potential market, many biotech companies have shied away from funding research and development (r& d) initiatives to find a cure for drug and alcohol addiction. your firm - drug abuse sciences (das) - is a notable exception. it has spent $235 million to date working on a cure, but is now at a crossroads. it can either abandon its program or invest another $50 million today. unfortunately, the firm's opportunity cost of funds is 5 percent and it will take another five years before final approval from the federal drug administration is achieved and the product is actually sold. expected (year-end) profits from selling the drug are presented in the accompanying table. year 1 year 2 year 3 year 4 year 5 year 6 year 7 year 8 year 9 $0 $0 $0 $0 $14,300,000 $16,500,000 $19,200,000 $21,900,000 $24,800,000 what is the net present value of the project?

hi : ) i found this so i hope this !

"we first find value of tax in dollars.

the difference between the two prices   is: 23. 54 - 22 = 1.54

therefore the sales tax in dollars is 1.54

the tax % will be   (amount of tax / original cost price ) × 100

(1.54 / 22) × 100  → (0.07) × 100 =   7

so the tax rate is 7%

we can double check the answer.

7 % of 22   → (7/100) × 22 → 0.07 × 22 = 1.54

22 + 1.54 = 23.54"

anyone below or above ambitious can tell you. so crowns mean brainliest. getting brainliest means your answer needs a good explanation and the person asking the question can understand your answer easily. so say there's a multiple choice question. you don't just want to say your answer is a, hope it . provide evidence and reasoning so that they know that that is the correct answer. a good explanation should have evidence, good reasoning, and your opinion on why you picked that. you don't want to look up their question on the internet and see if you can answer it. pick questions that you 100% know the answer to, so than that way you can provide a better explanation.

best of luck,

the divergent

the answer would be price fixing, hope it

i would say cowboy bebop
