Answer:
c. seller receives cash sooner than if credit is granted directly to the customers
d. may allow seller to increase sales volume
Explanation:
When a customer uses a credit card, the bank that issued the card pays the seller immediately, and later, the bank recovers the money plus interest from the customer.
So this method allows for a faster collection of cash (basically immediatly) than if the seller granted the credit directly to the customer.
Credit cards also allow seller to increase sales volume because many people lack the cash necessary to pay down the full value of the purchase.

Ziva's total cost of farming is composed of two different costs: explicit and implicit costs.
Explicit cost is an out-of-pocket cost that a person incurs to carry out a particular business activity. It is sort of, a business-related expense for which the business pays. In Ziva's case, it is $130, the cost of the seeds
Implicit costs are opportunity costs. An opportunity cost refers the benefits an individual, investor or business misses out on when opting for one alternative in preference of another. In our case, it amounts to $250($25*10 hours)
Thus, Ziva's cost of farming
= $130 +( $25*10) = $130 +$250 = $380
Answer:
The projected Net Income is $70,784
Explanation:
The Pro- forma income Statement
Working Note:
Variable cost = Sales × 44%
= $585,000 × 44%
= $257,400
EBT (Earnings before Tax) = Sales - Variable cost - fixed cost - depreciation
= $585,000 - $257,400 - $187,000 - $51,000
= $89,600
Net Income = EBT × Tax rate
= $89,600 × 21%
= $70,784
Answer: c. $81,202
Explanation:
The inflow will be annual and constant which makes it an annuity. Given the discount rate of 12% and a useful life of 8 years, the present value interest discount factor based on the table is = 4.968.
Option 1 present value
= 48,410 * 4.968
= $240,500.88
Option 2 present value
= 50,427 * 4.968
= $250,521.34
Option 3 present value
= 81,202 * 4.968
= $403,412
Option 3 is the closest option with the difference being down to rounding errors. The annual inflow would have to be $81,202 to make the investment in the equipment financially attractive.
