54. A project is being advertised to solicit bidders. The buyer has asked for two types of price: first, if payment is made in total upon completion of the project; second, if payment is made 50 percent at the midpoint of completion and 50 percent upon total completion. This is a two-year project that is being priced at $10,000,000 when the cost of money is not included. Assume money is borrowed in two equal increments - at the start of year 1 and year 2. If the interest rate over the two years is eight percent, the total bid under each option (i.e., payment at the end; payment at midpoint) is _____D_____. $11,844,000; $11,412,000 $10,400,000; $10,040,000 $10,800,000; $10,400,000 $11,232,000; $10,832,000 $12,484,000; $11,244,000
55. The cost of money and cash flow can adversely affect the financial status of the project. One method of encouraging early payment of invoices is to offer a discount for payment within a few days. If an invoice for $10,000 was paid within (x) days (see each possible answer for value of x), the method "two 10, net 30" would provide a savings of ___D_______. $100 (x = 30) $200 (x = 30) $300 (x = 10) $200 (x = 10) cannot be determined from available data 这两道题是什么意思,如何计算出来的?
