Should tangshan mining company accept a new project if its maximum payback is 3.5 years and its initial after tax cost is $5,000,000 and it is expected to provide afterminustax operating cash inflows of $1,800,000 in year 1, $1,900,000 in year 2, $700,000 in year 3 and $1,800,000 in year 4?

Yes, Tangshan Mining company should accept the project.

Explanation:

Payback period is the number of years it takes for a project's expected cash inflows to recover the initial investment amount.

Tangshan company's required payback period = 3.5 years

Year             CF                       Net CF

0             -5,000,000        -5,000,000

1               1,800,000          -3,200,000

2              1,900,000          -1,300,000

3                700,000           -600,000

4               1,800,000            1,200,000

Payback period = last year with -net CF +(absolute net CF that year /total CF the following year)

Payback period = 3 + (600,000 / 1,800,000)

=3 + 0.33

= 3.33 years

Since 3.33 years is lower than the required payback period of 3.5 years, Tangshan Mining company should ACCEPT the new project; it will take less years to fully recover the initial amount investment.

answer: b) the us is the leading importer but not the leading exporter.

extra info:

the u.s is the largest importer but it is not the largest exporter as china sits on the top of the table when it comes to leading exporters.

but u.s is not far from first,

they rank in 2nd globally as the worlds largest exporter.
