Journal: Budgeting

Work through a real-world scenario and calculate the net present value based on
the revenue of a sport organization of your choice.
Read the following article: What Are the Advantages and Disadvantages of the Net Present Value Method?
https://www.fool.com/knowledge-center/advantages-and-disadvantages-of-net-present-value.aspx
Next, read and respond to the following scenario: Your sport organization wants to expand its football stadium
and build five new luxury suites. We will assume that each suite will provide 10 years of revenue, and that each
suite generates $25,000 per year. The total construction cost of the suites is $500,000.
Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed:
I. Calculate the net present value based on the revenue of a sport organization.
II. Assume the rate of return is 10%. Identify the pros and cons of this investment.
III. Identify whether this investment is a good idea financially.

Sample Solution

Highlighting similarities and differences among cells

There are two basic types of cells, prokaryotic cells and eukaryotic cells. Prokaryotic cells comprise bacteria and archaea. Their DNA is not contained within a nucleus. Eukaryotic cells are found in plants, animals, fungi, and protists. Their DNA is contained within a membrane-bound nucleus. Although they have many differences, both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells have structures in common. All cells have a plasma membrane, ribosomes, cytoplasm, and DNA. The plasma membrane, or cell membrane, is the phospholipid layer that surrounds the cell and protects it from the outside environment. Ribosomes are the non-membrane bound organelles where proteins are made, a process called protein synthesis.

e increasing possibility of producing hydrocarbon in the Arctic makes the amount of fossil fuel left on the Earth more unpredictable. “It is no longer plausible to assume that the stock of future oil reserves is known, that it is limited to the conventional wells, and that there is a limit of around 100 -110 mbd (million barrels per day) in production that cannot be exceeded. … It is just a question of cost, price and whether it is worth investing in the technologies to get them out. … The problem is peak carbon: there is too much oil and gas left, as well as the vast coal deposits.” quoted from Burn Out.

Renewables

To substitute oil and gas in the energy sector, renewables are growing at an unprecedented pace. According to British Petroleum (BP) 2018 energy outlook, renewable energy is increasing its market share within the power sector at a rate of 7.5% per annual, accounting for over 50% of the growth in power generation. (https://www.bp.com/content/dam/bp/business-sites/en/global/corporate/pdfs/energy-economics/energy-outlook/bp-energy-outlook-2018.pdf)

Solar energy is one of the most widely used and best-developed renewable energies. When sunlight is absorbed by solar panels, the solar energy knocks electrons off from the atoms, allowing the electrons to flow through the material and produce electricity. This process of converting light (photons) to electricity (voltage) is called the photovoltaic (PV) effect. (http://www.chemistryexplained.com/Ru-Sp/Solar-Cells.html)

Solar energy is effectively infinite. The Sun’s energy is so abundant that more energy is transferred to our planet in an hour’s sunlight than the entire global electricity consumption for a year (https://books.wwnorton.com/books/The-Great-Transition/). It is also one of the fastest expanding renewable energy sources. With quicker technical gains and stronger policy support, the price of solar power is dropping rapidly.
