Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

The answer is option B) According to the Lewis two-sector model the creation of a Modern (urban) Sector will:

Create a flow of labor from the traditional sector into the modern sector.

Explanation:

The two sector model propounded by W. Arthur Lewis is a theory of development that identifies two sectors: the traditional and modern sector.

According to this theory, the creation of a modern sector will generate a flow of excess labor from the traditional sector to the urban sector where there is more demand for labor.

Over time, this migration will create more jobs, stimulate industrialization and a framework for sustainable development.

Dragon Inc. a NJ based construction firm is evaluating whether to replace an aging machine with a new model. For the old machine

Vilka [71]

Answer:

It should replace the old machine. In the current accounting period.

Explanation:

We need to perform a relevant cost analysis:

Keep the machine:

F0 = $0

F1 = $1500 maintenance

F2 = $3,000 maintenance

F3 = $6,000 maintenance

F4 = $12,000 maintenance

F5 =$24,000 maintenance + 250 resale value

replace the machine:

F0 = -12,000 purchase + 4,000 sale of old machine = -800

F1 = $900 maintenance

F2 = $900 maintenance

F3 = $900 maintenance

F4 = $900 maintenance

F5 =$900 maintenance + 1,500 resale value

As revenues are the same for each machine, we ignore them. We will only focus on the cost each machine generate:

We solve for the present worth of each machine with a discount rate of 12%

$\displaystyle PV_{old} = -\frac{1,500}{1.12} - \frac{3,000}{1.12^2} - \frac{6,000}{1.12^3} - \frac{12,000}{1.12^4} - \frac{23,750}{1.12^5}\\\\\displaystyle PV_{old} = -29,104.15$

$\displaystyle PV_{new} = -8,000 - \frac{900}{1.12} - \frac{900}{1.12^2} - \frac{900}{1.12^3} - \frac{900}{1.12^4} + \frac{600}{1.12^5}\\\\\displaystyle PV_{new} = -10,393.16$

As the present worth of the new machine is lower, the best decision for the company is to purchase the new machine and sale the old machine.

Delaying this will incur in higher maintenance cost (1,500 - 900)

and a lower recovery value (4,000 - 2,000)

As there is no cost saving for delaying the purchase, it should be made immediately.

A loan officer states, "Thousands of dollars can be saved by switching to a 15-year mortgage from a 30-year mortgage." Calculate

Lynna [10]

Answer:

$113,465

Explanation:

Calculation to determine difference in total dollars that will be paid to the lender under each loan

First step is to Calculate the difference in payments on a 30-year mortgage at an interest rate of .75% a month

$100,000 = PMT([1 / (0.0075)] − 1 / {(0.0075)[(1.0075)]^30 × 12})

PMT = $804.62

Second step is to Calculate the difference in payments on a 15-year mortgage at an interest rate of .7% a month

$100,000 = PMT([1 / (0.007)] − 1 / {(0.007 )[ 1.007)]^15 × 12})

PMT = $ 978.87

Now let determine the Total difference

Total difference = ($804.62 × 12 × 30) − ($978.87 × 12 × 15)

Total difference= $113,465

Therefore difference in total dollars that will be paid to the lender under each loan is $113,465
