this question is not complete. here is the full question :

New project analysis-- You must evaluate a proposed spectrometer for the R&D department. The base price is $180,000, and it would cost another $27,000 to modify the equipment for special use by the firm. The equipment falls into the MACRS 3-year class and would be sold after 3 years for $90,000. The applicable depreciation rates are 33%, 45%, 15%, and 7%. The equipment would require an $8,000 increase in net operating working capital (spare parts inventory). The project would have no effect on revenues, but it should save the firm $79,000 per year in before-tax labor costs. The firm's marginal federal-plus-state tax rate is 40%.*********** What is the initial investment outlay for the spectrometer, that is, what is the Year 0 project cash flow?

the initial cash outlay = cost of the spectrometer + net working capital

cost of the spectrometer = base price + cost of modification

$180,000 + $27,000 = $207,000

$207,000 + $8,000 = $215,000

Answer:

Undervalued

Explanation:

The PPP exchange rate is the implicit exchange rate, so that everywhere, one dollar has the same purchasing power. In general, this exchange rate is different from the exchange rate on the market.

Because the same nominal GDP translates to a higher real GDP by using the PPP exchange rate, one Pakistan Rupee must be valued more in terms of U.S. dollars than in contexts of the market exchange rate under the PPP exchange rate. The Pakistan Rupee is therefore worth less than its true value in the economy, i.e., undervalued.

Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

move along upwards

shift out

shift in

Explanation:

A change in price of a good leads to a movement along the supply curve and not a shift of the supply curve.

Other factors other than a change in the price of the good would lead to a shift of the supply curve. Such factors include :

A change in the price of input
A change in the number of suppliers
Government regulations

When the price of corn increases, the quantity supplied of corn increases. this is in line with the law of supply.

according to the law of supply, the higher the price, the higher the quantity supplied and the lower the price, the lower the quantity supplied.

This would lead to a movement up along the supply curve

If the price of seed which is an input to corn decreases, it becomes cheaper to produce corn. As a result, the supply of corn would increase. this would lead to an outward shift of the supply curve.

If the number of grocery stores decreases, there would be a reduction in supply. As a result, the supply curve would shift inwards

An analysis and aging of the accounts receivable of Hugh Company at December 31 revealed the following data: Accounts Receivable

Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

$844,000

Explanation:

Given that,

Accounts Receivable = $900,000

Credit balance of Allowance for Doubtful Accounts per books before adjustment = $50,000

Expected amount of uncollectible = $56,000

Bad debt expense at the end of the period is determined by subtracting the credit balance of allowance for doubtful accounts from the expected amount of uncollectible.

Bad debt expense:

= Expected amount of uncollectible - Credit balance

= $56,000 - $50,000

= $6,000

At the end of the period, the allowance for doubtful accounts has a balance of $56,000 that are to be uncollectible.

The cash realizable value of the accounts receivable at December 31, after adjustment, is determined by simply subtracting the Allowance for doubtful accounts from the accounts receivable. It is calculated as follows:

= Accounts Receivable - Allowance for doubtful accounts

= $900,000 - $56,000

= $844,000
