An investor begins a business with a $1,000 investment.  The company has these results for the first two years: Income of $150 in the first year Pays out no dividends in the first year. Income of $150 in the second year Pays out the entire cumulative income of $300 as dividends, and returns the original $1,000 investment. The discount rate for this investment is 10 percent.  The PV factors for 10% are:    Required: What are the abnormal earnings for year 1? What are the abnormal earnings for year 2, keeping in mind that the book value at the beginning of year 2 is the original investment ($1,000) plus the income from year 1 ($150) minus the dividends paid in year 1, (zero) [$1,000+$150-$0=$1,150]? What is the PV of the two years of abnormal earnings? The total cash in the firm at the end of the year 2 is $1,300. As of the initial investment, what is the present value of the $1,300? Now, for the accounting.  How is the present value of the $1,300 related to the present value of the abnormal earnings?

As shown in the figure, a rectangular current loop is carrying current I = 3.0 A, in the direction shown, and is located near a long wire carrying a current Iw. The long wire is parallel to the sides of the rectangle. The rectangle loop has length 0.80 m and its sides are 0.10 m and 0.70 m from the wire, as shown. We measure that the net force on the rectangular loop as 4.9 × 10-6 N directed towards the wire.    (a) What is the magnitude of the current Iw?   [current] (b) In which direction does Iw flow: from top to bottom or from bottom to top in the sketch?  [direction]

A tetrahedron has an equilateral triangle base with 20-cm-long edges and three equilateral triangle sides. The base is parallel to the ground, and a vertical uniform electric field of strength 200 N/C passes upward through the tetrahedron.  (a)  What is the electric flux through the base?  [efluxtet] (b) What is the electric flux through each of the three sloping sides?  [efluxsides]
