Answer:

The simple rate of return is 0.178 or 17.8%

Explanation:

From the given question, we solve for the simple rate return on this investment

Solution

Recall that, the simple rate of return is defined as:

The simple rate of return = The  operating  net cash savings /  Cash net investment

Thus,

The operating net cash savings = $164000  and

The cash net investment = $980000- $60000 = $920000

Then,

The Simple rate of return = $164000 / $920000 = 0.178 i.e. 17.8%

Therefore the simple rate of return on this investment is 0.178 or 17.8%

Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

X - number of units sold

Total cost for production = 1,500,000 + 1600X

Total cost for purchasing = 2000X

a.  For 4000 units sold

Total cost for production = 1,500,000 + 1600 * 4000 = $7,900,000

Total cost for purchasing = 2000* 4000 =  $8,000,000

In this case producing is cheaper. Therefore, it is better to produce

b. Y - break-even point

Then :  1,500,000 + 1600 * Y = 2000* Y

So 1,500,000 = 400 Y

Y = 3750

At №of units less than 3750 purchasing will be the better option
