Answer: Machine B because it has the lower Present Value
Explanation:
<h2>
Machine A</h2>
= Present Value of income - Present Value of Costs
Present value of Income;
Sold for $5,000 after 10 years.
= 5,000/ (1 + 8%)^10
= $2,315.97
Present Value of Costs;
Purchased for $48,000.
Maintenance of $1,000 per year for years.
Present value of maintenance= 1,000 * Present value factor of annuity, 10 years, 8%
= 1,000 * 6.7101
= $6,710.10
Machine A Present Value
= 2,315.97 - 6,710.10 - 48,000
= -$52,394
<h2>
Machine B</h2>
No salvage value.
Present Value of costs
Purchased for $40,000.
Present value of maintenance = (4,000 / (1 + 8%)^3) + (5,000 / ( 1 + 8)^6) + (6,000 / ( 1 + 8%)^8)
= -$9,567.79
Present Value = -40,000 - 9,567.79
= -$49,568

See explanations below.
Explanation:
1. Yes. Overhead should be applied to job W at year-end. Overhead is applied to every jobs whether or not they are completed at year end.
b. To calculate the amount of overhead to be applied to job W, we need to calculate first the overhead application rate based on direct labor cost through job V.
Direct labor cost. $8,000
Overhead applied $6,000
Overhead rate = [ Overhead applied / Direct labor cost ] × 100
= [6,000/8,000] × 100
= 75%
Overhead to be applied to job W
Direct labor cost $4,000
Overhead rate 75%
Overhead to be applied = $3,000
It therefore means that $3,000 should be applied to job W.
2. Because job W was not completed at the year end, it would then be included in the work in process inventory in the financial statements of Sigma Corporation at year end.
