eimsori [14]

Answer:

both companies should invest because the NPV of both companies are positive

Explanation:

Net present value is the present value of after-tax cash flows from an investment less the amount invested.  

NPV can be calculated using a financial calculator  

Only projects with a positive NPV should be accepted. A project with a negative NPV should not be chosen because it isn't profitable.  

When choosing between positive NPV projects, choose the project with the highest NPV first because it is the most profitable.

Cash flow in year 0 = - $8.4 million

Cash flow in year 1-7 =  $2.2 million

NPV of Lester with I of 15.8% = 0.54 million

NPV of Med Inc with I of 13.7% = 1.12 million

To find the NPV using a financial calculator:

1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

2. after inputting all the cash flows, press the NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.  

3. Press compute

Alternative A Alternative B Materials costs $28,000 $64,000 Processing costs $34,000 $34,000 Equipment rental $11,000 $28,500 Oc
stira [4]

Answer:

$61,600

Explanation:

The differential cost analysis is an analysis in which the costs of two alternatives is taken into consideration and based on those costs it is decided that which alternative is suitable in terms of increment that has been lost by other alternative. That is why it is also known as alternative cost. To calculate the differential cost, it is simple, subtract the cost of 1st alternative from the 2nd and you will get the differential cost. Basically this tool helps in decision making when deciding to choose between two alternatives.

In the question we have been asked to find the differential cost of Alternative B over Alternative A, including all of the relevant costs. To do that first we need to find the differential costs among all the relevant costs and then sum all the differences to find the differential cost of Alternative B over Alternative A.

(a)

Differential Cost of Alternative B over Alternative A is;

Materials costs =  $64,000 - $28,000 = $36,000

Processing costs =  $34,000 - $34,000 = $0

Equipment rental =  $28,500 - $11,000 = $17,500

Occupancy costs = $27,600 - $19,500 = $8,100

(b)

Now the Total Cost which is Differential Cost of Alternative B over Alternative A is;

$36,000 + $0 + $17,500 + $8,100

$61,600
