Question 1
The lower interest rates in the environment will lead to the increase in the prices of
assets. This is because many people are attracted to assets and have the power to buy them.
Therefore, the prices will be increased since many people are able to afford the assets.
Question 2
An increase in the net present value implies that there is an increase in an investment’s
value. This would consequently lead to the maximization of shareholder wealth. Therefore, a
positive net present value leads to the maximizing of shareholder wealth.
