Answer:

City 2% 10% 20% 30% 50% 100%

Denver 80.93 -22.58 -100.47 -147.92 -200.06 -248.20

Dallas 453.59 180.88 -24.31 -149.32 -286.69 -413.54

SanAntonio 407.08 174.19 -1.05 -107.81 -225.13 -333.46

LosAngeles 473.36 140.93 -109.19 -261.57 -429.03 -583.65

Cleveland -18.14 -53.97 -80.93 -97.36 -115.40 -132.07

Atlanta 158.95 61.41 -11.98 -56.69 -105.82 -151.19

Chicago 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00

b) The manufacturing plant should be located in Dallas (IRR=19%).

Explanation:

We have the cost and uniform annual benefits for each city:

Plant Location First Cost ($000s) Uniform Annual Benefit($000s)

Denver 300 52

Dallas 550 137

San Antonio 450 117

Los Angeles 750 167

Cleveland 150 18

Atlanta 200 49

Chicago 0 0

The cash flow can be written as:

$NPV=-I_0+CF[\frac{1-(1+i)^{-8})}{i}]=-I_0+CF\cdot A$

where:

I0: first cost.

CF: uniform annual benefit

i: discount rate

A: annuity factor

The annuity factor that multiplies the CF is equal for every city, so it can be calculated beforehand:

$A=\frac{1-(1+i)^{-8})}{i}$

For some rate of returns, we have:

r=2% A=7.33

r=10% A=5.33

r=20% A=3.84

r=30% A=2.92

r=50% A=1.92

r=100% A=1.00

a) Then, for each city, we have this NPV, in function of differents discount rates:

City 2% 10% 20% 30% 50% 100%

Denver 80.93 -22.58 -100.47 -147.92 -200.06 -248.20

Dallas 453.59 180.88 -24.31 -149.32 -286.69 -413.54

SanAntonio 407.08 174.19 -1.05 -107.81 -225.13 -333.46

LosAngeles 473.36 140.93 -109.19 -261.57 -429.03 -583.65

Cleveland -18.14 -53.97 -80.93 -97.36 -115.40 -132.07

Atlanta 158.95 61.41 -11.98 -56.69 -105.82 -151.19

Chicago 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00

b) The firm uses a 10% annual interest. For this situation, we can look up in the table from the previos question and see that Dallas has the higher NPV at this discount rate.

So the manufacturing plant should be located in Dallas.

(NOTE: the IRR of the project relocating to Dallas is 19%)

Accountants establish measurement and reporting rules that business people use to facilitate communication of financial informat

MariettaO [177]

Answer:

GAAP

Explanation:

While many businesses assume that accountants are bound by generally accepted accounting practices (GAAP), and that these are inviolable, nothing could be further from reality. Everything is subject to interpretation, and GAAP is no exception. First, these practices allow the use of alternative accounting methods for certain expenses and for the income of certain specialized businesses. On the other hand, these methods require decisions about the time at which expenses and income are recorded, and require that the key factors be quantified. Deciding the time of income and expenses, and putting a definite value on these factors requires judgment, estimation and interpretation.

The GAAP statement prepared by the Standard Financial Accounting Council (CCFE) is now more than 1000 pages long. And that doesn't even include the rules and regulations implemented by the federal regulatory agency that has jurisdiction over the financial reports and accounting methods used by public businesses - the US Security and Exchange Commission (CSI).
