are three categories of investment decisions: acceptance or rejection‚ ranking of projects‚ and choosing between projects. To assess whether it is viable to invest or not the NPV technique can be used to compare the present value of returns and costs. If the NPV is negative it implies that costs exceed returns and hence it would not be advisable to invest in such projects. There are also other investment appraisal techniques that are employed apart from the NPV; these are the pay back method‚ accounting

Pill Bugs Turn Alternation Lab Report Bio Lab 111 Nov. 15‚ 2012 Pill bugs are said to have some sort of turn alternation built in there cognitive functions‚ which causes them to take a zig-zag route rather than going along in a straight line for a long distance (Ono Tomohiro & Takagi Yuika‚ 2006). Distance does not play a factor in the pill bugs making turn alternation even if it is a forced turn‚ pill bugs will still make a zig-zag motion (Kupfermann‚ 1966). The zig-zag motion shows that

This lab felt very “slow” because there was not a lot of action going on. The pill bugs would either walk around in circles or stay put. However‚ it was both fun and annoying when my group tried to put the pill bugs in the chamber and take them out. We had to put a lot of effort to get the pill bugs on to the paint brushes because they would scurry around and it would take a while to find them. Also‚ it was cool to see the pill bugs use their defense mechanism (it only happened once) by going into

When cash inflows are even: NPV = R × 1 − (1 + i)-n − Initial Investment i In the above formula‚ R is the net cash inflow expected to be received each period; i is the required rate of return per period; n are the number of periods during which the project is expected to operate and generate cash inflows. When cash inflows are uneven: NPV = R1 + R2 + R3 + ... − Initial Investment (1 + i)1 (1 + i)2 (1 + i)3 Where‚ i is the target rate of return per period;
