Dechico Corporation purchased a machine 3 years ago for $456,000 when it launched product G92L. Unfortunately, this machine has

broken down and cannot be repaired. The machine could be replaced by a new model 330 machine costing $474,000 or by a new model 260 machine costing $418,000. Management has decided to buy the model 260 machine. It has less capacity than the model 330 machine, but its capacity is sufficient to continue making product G92L. Management also considered, but rejected, the alternative of dropping product G92L and not replacing the old machine. If that were done, the $418,000 invested in the new machine could instead have been invested in a project that would have returned a total of $496,000.
In making the decision to invest in the model 260 machine, the opportunity cost was _______.

Answer:

the $490,000 that an alternative project could have returned.

Explanation:

Opportunity costs are the costs (or benefits lost) from choosing one alternative activity or investment over another.

In this case, if Dechico decides to continue to produce product G92L, it will not be able to invest in the new project that could have generated a $496,000 return.

You want to buy your dream car which will cost you $5900. If you could invest your entire savings of $3500 at an annual interest
Liula [17]

Answer:

t = 4.607742347 years rounded off to 4.61 years

Explanation:

To calculate the number of years it will take an investment of $3500 to grow to $5900 at an annual interest rate of 12%, we will use the formula for the future value of cash flows. The formula can be written as follows,

Future value = Present value * (1+i)^t

Where,

  • i is the interest rate
  • t is the time in years

Plugging in the values for future value, present value and i, we can calculate the t to be,

5900 = 3500 * (1+0.12)^t

5900 / 3500 = (1.12)^t

1.685714286 = 1.12^t

Taking log on both sides.

Ln(1.685714286)  /  Ln(1.12)  =  t

t = 4.607742347 years rounded off to 4.61 years

jeyben [28]

Answer:

                                     Book Value                          Market Value

Current Assets              $14 m                                        $14.95 m

Fixed Assets                  $18 m                                        $27 m

Total                               $32 m                                        $41.95 m

Explanation:

For book Value:

Net fixed assets=$18.00 million

Current Liabilities=$7.50 million

net working capital=$6.50 million

Formula:

Net working capital=Current assets-Current Liabilities

$6.50 million=Current assets-$7.50 million

Current Assets=$6.50+$7.50

Current Assets=$14 million

Total Assets=Net fixed assets+Current Assets

Total Assets=$18 m+$14 m

Total Assets=$32 m

For Market Value:

Net fixed assets=$27.00 million

Current Liabilities=$7.50 million

net working capital=$7.45 million

Formula:

Net working capital=Current assets-Current Liabilities

$7.45 million=Current assets-$7.50 million

Current Assets=$7.45+$7.50

Current Assets=$14.95 million

Total Assets=Net fixed assets+Current Assets

Total Assets=$27 m+$14.95 m

Total Assets=$41.95 m

                                     Book Value                          Market Value

Current Assets              $14 m                                        $14.95 m

Fixed Assets                  $18 m                                        $27 m

Total                               $32 m                                        $41.95 m

On December 31, 2019, Irey Co. has $3,000,000 of short-term notes payable due on February 14, 2020. On February 8, 2020, Irey bo
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

$1,800,000

Explanation:

Given short term notes payable = $3,000,000

Total amount used to liquidate short term notes = $2,200,000

Balance = $3,000,000 - $2,200,000 = $800,000

The additional $1,200,000 which is borrowed from Country Bank will not increase the short term notes payable because it's a long term credit

The additional $1,000,000 cash used will now be added to the balance amount

Amount to be reported as current liabilities = $1,000,000 + $800,000

= $1,800,000

Therefore the amount of the short-term notes payable that should be reported as current liabilities on the December 31, 2019 balance sheet which is issued on March 5, 2020 is $1,800,000

Use the following comparative figures for Apple and Google. Google 12.662 $ Key Figures Net income (in millions) Cash dividends
azamat

Answer and Explanation :

Few information is missing in the question kindly find the attachment

As per the data given in the question,

The formula and the computation is shown below

1) Book value per share = Equity applicable to share ÷ share outstanding

                                             Apple Google

Equity  common share a $134,047 $152,502

Common share outstanding b 5,126.201 694.783

Book value per common share a ÷ b $26.15 $219.50

2)Basic EPS = Net income ÷ weighted Avg common share outstanding

                Apple Google

Net income a $48,351 $12,662

weighted Avg common share outstanding b 5217.242 693.049

Basic EPS a ÷ b $9.27 $18.27

3)Dividend yield = Cash dividend per common share ÷ Market price per share

                                              Apple Google

Cash dividend per common share a 2.4 0

Market price per share b $154.12 $1046.4

Dividend yield a ÷ b 1.56% 0.00%

4) Price earning ratio = Market price per share ÷ Basic EPS

                                  Apple Google

Market price per share a $154.12 $1046.4

Basic EPS b 9.26754 18.26999

Price earning ratio a ÷ b 16.63 57.27

5) A higher PE ration indicates that investors want to pay a higher share price because of growth expectation in near by future

Therefore Google has higher PE ratio

Hence, investors have greater expectation of performance of Google in future.
