REY [17]

Answer:

If the company decides to increase its advertising budget, its net profits will decrease by $200 (= $56,800 - $57,000).

Explanation:

The company is currently selling 5,000 units per month at $150 per unit, and its total variable costs are $90 per unit.

Fixed expenses are $243,000 per month.

Current income statement:

sales revenue = $750,000

minus variable costs = ($450,000)

<u>minus fixed costs = ($243,000) </u>

net income = $57,000

If the company increases its advertising budget be $11,000 it should sell 180 more units per month, the new income statement would be:

sales revenue = $777,000

minus variable costs = ($466,200)

<u>minus fixed costs = ($254,000) </u>

net income = $56,800

If the company decides to increase its advertising budget, its net profits will decrease by $200 (= $56,800 - $57,000).

Answer:

Accept Project A and reject Project B

Explanation:

See the images to get the answer.

Decision: Required rate of return = 16% = Cost of capital.

If Internal rate of return (IRR) > the cost of capital = Accept the project.

If Internal rate of return (IRR) < the cost of capital = Reject the project.

From the basis of the formula, we can accept the project A because the IRR of Project A (19%) is higher than the cost of capital (16%). On the other hand, we can reject the project B because the IRR of Project B (14%) is smaller than the cost of capital (14%).
