Parker & Stone, Inc., is looking at setting up a new manufacturing plant in South Park to produce garden tools. The company

bought some land six years ago for $4.5 million in anticipation of using it as a warehouse and distribution site, but the company has since decided to rent these facilities from a competitor instead. If the land were sold today, the company would net $4.8 million. The company wants to build its new manufacturing plant on this land; the plant will cost $12 million to build, and the site requires $720,000 worth of grading before it is suitable for construction. What is the proper cash flow amount to use as the initial investment in fixed assets when evaluating this project?

Answer:

The proper cash flow investment on fixed assets amount will be $17.22 Million

Explanation:

Firstly we take note that the land has already been purchased so an investment of $4.5 million has been already invested in the project therefore this is the amount that will be used as purchasing of land as it actually involved the spending of $4.5 million in cash to purchase this long term asset that is why we use this amount rather than $4.8 million as this is the fair market value of the land but not the initial amount that costed the company to acquire the land. Further we are given the cost of the plant of $12 million and a further $720000 which will be used to refurbish the land in order to grade the land for building the plant.

The cash flow for initial investment in fixed assets = $4.5 million + $12 million + $0.72 million($720000) = $17.22 Million

we sum all these amounts as they are part of the initial investment where the company builds the plant.

Assume that Global Cleaning Service performed cleaning services for a department store on account for​ $180. How would this tran
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

(B) Increase both assets and equity by $180

Explanation:

The transaction analysis model tells us that:

Assets = Liabilities + Owner's Equity

Owner's equity = Contributed Capital + Retained Earnings

Retained Earnings = Net Income − Dividends

and

Net Income = Income − Expenses

The expanded accounting equation is obtain if all substitutions are made:

Asset = Liabilities + Contributed Capital + Income – Expenses − Dividends

In the Global Cleaning Service`s case:

Assets are increased either because the service is collected or is an account receivable. As the service provided is a revenue (income) is part of the Owner's Equity that also increase. Both, Asset and Owner's Equity, increase in 180.

boyakko [2]

Answer:

this promise is enforceable only if it is agreed upon in writing

Explanation:

In the scenario described in the question it can be said that this promise is enforceable only if it is agreed upon in writing. This is because by putting it in writing all details of the contract are displayed for both parties to read/analyze and decide whether they actually want to agree to this agreement/contract or not. Once the contract is signed and agreed upon by both parties it can then be completely enforced because both parties knew exactly what they were getting into at the time of signing.

Each year a company selects a number of employees for a management training program. On average, 60 percent of those sent comple
Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

the probability that exactly 8 complete the program is 0.001025

Explanation:

given information:

60 % of those sent complete the program, p = 0.6

the total of people being sent, n = 27

exactly 8 complete the program, x = 8

to find the probability, we can use the following formula

P(X=x)=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}n\\x\\\end{array}\right] p^{x} (1-p)^{n-x}

P(X=8)=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}27\\8\\\end{array}\right] 0.6^{8} (1-0.6)^{27-8}

P(X=8)=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}27\\8\\\end{array}\right] 0.6^{8} (0.4)^{19}

                = 0.001025

Now suppose country A imposes a tax on A's production of to curb emissions. Country B, however, is not taxed. A's cost function
harina [27]

Answer:

286.5

Explanation:

P=99-qa-qb

MRa=99-2qb-qb

MCa=48

99-2qa-qb=48

Qa=25.5-0.5qb{ best response function of firm A)

MRb=99-qa-2qb

MCb=4

99-qa-2qb=4

Qb=47.5-0.5qa{ best response function of form b}

Qb=47.5-0.5(25.5-0.5qb)

Qb=34.75/0.75=46.33

Qa=25.5-0.5*46.33=2.33

Total world output=46.33+2.33=48.66

Total world emission=0.5*48.66=24.33

p=1146-qa-qb-qc

MRa=1146-2qa-qb-qc

MCa=0

1146-2qa-qb-qc=0

Qa=573-0.5(qb+qc) best response function of firm a)

By symmetry,

Qb=573-0.5(qa+qc)

Qc=573-0.5(qa+qb)

Qb+qc=1146-qa-0.5(qb+qc)

Qb+qc=764-qa/1.5

Qa=573-0.5(764-qa/1.5)=191+qa/3

Qa=191*3/2=286.5

Qa=Qb=Qc=286.5

Total output=3*286.5=859.5( cournot equilibrium market output)

Cartel output=573

Lower QUANTITY in cartel equilibrium compare to cournot equilibrium

=859.5-573

=286.5
