Japan's most powerful earthquake since records began had struck the north-east coast, triggering a massive tsunami on March 11, 2011. Cars, ships and buildings were swept away by a wall of water after the 8.9-magnitude tremor, which struck about 400km (250 miles) north-east of Tokyo. The earthquake and tsunami have caused extensive and severe damage in Northeastern Japan, leaving thousands of people confirmed dead, injured or missing, and millions more affected by lack of electricity, water and transportation. A state of emergency had been declared at a nuclear power plant, where pressure had exceeded normal levelsand it is still going on.
Keeping in view the above statement answer the following questions:
Marks= 2.5+2.5+10

Arguments based on laws, rules and acceptted principles are generally used ffor Deductive Reasoning.. Observations tend to be used for
Inductive Arguments..
Inference can be done in four stages:
Observation: collect facts, without bias.
Analysis: classify the facts, identifying patterns o of regularity.
Inference: From the patterns, infer generalizations about the relations between the facts.
Confirmation: Testing the inference through further observation.
In an argument, you might:
Derive a general rule in an accepted area and then apply the rule in the area where you want the person to behave.
Give them lots of detail, then explain what it all means.
Talk about the benefits of the parts and only get to the overall benefits later.
Take what has happened and give a plausible explanation for why it has happened.
Inductive arguments can include:
Part-to-whole: where the whole is assumed to be like individual parts (only bigger).
Extrapolations: where areas beyond the area of study are assumed to be like the studied area.
Predictions: where the future is assumed to be like the past.
:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
A distinction between forms of social identity formation in small interactive groups is investigated. In groups in which a common identity is available or given, norms for individual behavior may be deduced from group properties (deductive identity). In groups in which interpersonal relations are central, a group identity may also be induced from individual group members' contributions, making individuality and individual distinctiveness a defining feature of the group (inductive identity). Two studies examined the prediction that depersonalization produced by anonymity has opposite effects for groups in which social identity has been induced or deduced. Results confirmed the prediction that depersonalization increases social influence in groups whose identity was more deductive. In contrast, depersonalization decreases social influence in inductive identity groups. Implications for the role of social identity in small groups are discussed::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
Inductive reasoning is the process of reasoning in which the premises of an argument are believed to support the conclusion but do not ensure it. Deductive reasoning is the kind of reasoning in which the conclusion is necessitated by, or reached from, previously known facts (the premises). hope that helps!My point of view is Inductive reasoning

SOLUTION
::::::::::::::::::::
::::::::::::::::::::::::::
Solution 1
Assume the company’s discount rate/cost of borrowing is 9%.
Calculate IRR for above project by using trial and error method.
The IRR is calculated by a trial and error process
1. The NPV is calculated using discount rate r.
2. If the NPV is close to zero then r is the IRR.
3. If the NPV is positive r is increased.
4. If the NPV is negative r is decreased.
First we calculate the NPV using the discount rate which is 9% given in question
NPV = CF0 + CF1/ (1+r) + CF2/ (1+r) 2 + CF3/ (1+r) 3 +CF4/ (1+r) 4 + CF5/ (1+r) 5
0= -2000000+550000/ (1.09) +550000(1.09)2+550000(1.09) 3 +550000(1.09)4 +550000(1.09)5
0= -2000000+504587+462924+424700+389633+357462
0= 139306
It is Positive so we increased our r 9% to 12% and use 12% instead of 9%
NPV = CF0 + CF1/(1+r) + CF2/(1+r)2 + CF3/(1+r)3 +CF4/(1+r)4 + CF5/(1+r)5
0= -2000000+550000/ (1.12) +550000(1.12)2+550000(1.12) 3 +550000(1.12)4 +550000(1.12)5
0= -2000000+491071+438456+391479+349534+312085
0= -17375
Now it is Negative so we decrease rate. Let’s try 11.648
NPV = CF0 + CF1/(1+r) + CF2/(1+r)2 + CF3/(1+r)3 +CF4/(1+r)4 + CF5/(1+r)5
0= -2000000+550000/ (1.11648) +550000(1.11648)2+550000(1.11648) 3 +550000(1.11648)4 +550000(1.648)5
0= -2000000+492620+441226+395193+353964+317035
0= -2000000+2000038
This rate is NEARLY suitable at IRR 11.648
So IRR is 11.648
Solution 2
PV of Coupon Bond =C [(1-(1/1+i) n)/i] +m/(1+i)n
C= Coupon payment
I= Rate of return = 5%
M= Face value =1000
N= periods = 7 years
C= = Coupon Rate* Face value
= 12.5%*1000=125
Now putting value in Formula
PV of Coupon Bond =125[(1-(1/1+.05)7)/.05]+1000/(1+.05)7
PV of Coupon Bond =125[(1-(1/1.4071)/.05]+1000/1.4071
PV of Coupon Bond =125[(1-.7107)/.05] +711
PV of Coupon Bond =125[0.2893/.05] +711
PV of Coupon Bond =125[5.786]+711
PV of Coupon Bond = 723+711
PV of Coupon Bond =1434.25
Solution 3
interest rate by using fisher equation.
R=14%-11%
R=3%
Assume the company’s discount rate/cost of borrowing is 9%.
Calculate IRR for above project by using trial and error method.
The IRR is calculated by a trial and error process
1. The NPV is calculated using discount rate r.
2. If the NPV is close to zero then r is the IRR.
3. If the NPV is positive r is increased.
4. If the NPV is negative r is decreased.
First we calculate the NPV using the discount rate which is 9% given in question
NPV = CF0 + CF1/ (1+r) + CF2/ (1+r) 2 + CF3/ (1+r) 3 +CF4/ (1+r) 4 + CF5/ (1+r) 5
0= -2000000+550000/ (1.09) +550000(1.09)2+550000(1.09) 3 +550000(1.09)4 +550000(1.09)5
0= -2000000+504587+462924+424700+389633+357462
0= 139306
It is Positive so we increased our r 9% to 12% and use 12% instead of 9%
NPV = CF0 + CF1/(1+r) + CF2/(1+r)2 + CF3/(1+r)3 +CF4/(1+r)4 + CF5/(1+r)5
0= -2000000+550000/ (1.12) +550000(1.12)2+550000(1.12) 3 +550000(1.12)4 +550000(1.12)5
0= -2000000+491071+438456+391479+349534+312085
0= -17375
Now it is Negative so we decrease rate. Let’s try 11.648
NPV = CF0 + CF1/(1+r) + CF2/(1+r)2 + CF3/(1+r)3 +CF4/(1+r)4 + CF5/(1+r)5
0= -2000000+550000/ (1.11648) +550000(1.11648)2+550000(1.11648) 3 +550000(1.11648)4 +550000(1.648)5
0= -2000000+492620+441226+395193+353964+317035
0= -2000000+2000038
This rate is NEARLY suitable at IRR 11.648
So IRR is 11.648
Solution 2
PV of Coupon Bond =C [(1-(1/1+i) n)/i] +m/(1+i)n
C= Coupon payment
I= Rate of return = 5%
M= Face value =1000
N= periods = 7 years
C= = Coupon Rate* Face value

0= -2000000+550000/ (1.12) +550000(1.12)2+550000(1.12) 3 +550000(1.12)4 +550000(1.12)5
0= -2000000+491071+438456+391479+349534+312085
0= -17375
Now it is Negative so we decrease rate. Let’s try 11.648
NPV = CF0 + CF1/(1+r) + CF2/(1+r)2 + CF3/(1+r)3 +CF4/(1+r)4 + CF5/(1+r)5
0= -2000000+550000/ (1.11648) +550000(1.11648)2+550000(1.11648) 3 +550000(1.11648)4 +550000(1.648)5
0= -2000000+492620+441226+395193+353964+317035
0= -2000000+2000038
This rate is NEARLY suitable at IRR 11.648
So IRR is 11.648
Question # 2: (Marks: 08)
Find the present value of a coupon bond, having face value Rs 1000/-, coupon rate of 12.5% per annum with 7 years maturity. During current economic conditions the investor’s required rate of return is 5%.
Requirement: Calculate Present value of Coupon Bond.
PV of Coupon Bond =C [(1-(1/1+i) n)/i] +m/(1+i)n
C= Coupon payment
I= Rate of return = 5%
M= Face value =1000
N= periods = 7 years
C= = Coupon Rate* Face value
= 12.5%*1000=125
Now putting value in Formula
PV of Coupon Bond =125[(1-(1/1+.05)7)/.05]+1000/(1+.05)7
PV of Coupon Bond =125[(1-(1/1.4071)/.05]+1000/1.4071
PV of Coupon Bond =125[(1-.7107)/.05] +711
PV of Coupon Bond =125[0.2893/.05] +711
PV of Coupon Bond =125[5.786]+711
PV of Coupon Bond = 723+711
PV of Coupon Bond =1434.25
