Answer and Explanation:
A. Given that Design 1A will cost $1.7 million to build and $175,000 per year to maintain
Given that Design 1B will cost $3.6 million to build and $40,000 per year to maintain
Both designs are assumed to be permanent
To find ROR using AW based rate of return equation, we find present value of each design and equate them:
Each design is permanent so
Present value of perpetuity:
Design 1A= 1700000+175000/r
Design 1B = 3600000+40000/r
=1700000+175000/r=3600000+40000/r
135000/r=1900000
Cross multiply
r=135000/1900000
r= 0.0710
r=7.10%
B Given that ROR=7.10% and MARR is 25%
MARR>ROR
Hence we reject both designs
Answer:
The firm's cash flow to creditors during 2016 was -$131,000.
Explanation:
Cash flow to creditors
= Interest expense - (Ending LT Debt - Beginning LT Debt)
= $99,000 - ($1,680,000 - $1,450,000)
= -$131,000
Therefore, The firm's cash flow to creditors during 2016 was -$131,000.
Answer:
not satisfying customer needs on critical factors.
Explanation:
In this scenario American companies were supplying more of left hand side cars to Japan. When Japan needed more of the right hand side cars. They ignored the customer needs and instead gave him what he has little use for.
On the other hand Germany supplied Japan the specification of cars that they wanted.
American car manufacturers will be blamed for not satisfying customer needs on critical factor of right hand drive cars.
Answer:
Annual Rate of Return = 12%
Effective Annual Rate of Return = 9.6%
Explanation:
Nominal Annual Rate of return = 
Annual Dividend per share = $3 per quarter 
4 = $12 per share
Current price per share = $125
Par Price per share = $100
Thus Annual Rate of return = $12/$100 = 12%
Effective Annual Rate of Return = 
= 
= 9.6%
Final Answer
Annual Rate of Return = 12%
Effective Annual Rate of Return = 9.6%
