Sherman, Inc. manufactures chainsaws that sell for $65. Each chainsaw uses $14 in direct materials and $9 in direct labor per un

anzhelika [568]

Answer: $18

Explanation:

Based on the information,

Sales revenue = $65 × 225 = $14625

Cost of goods sold = (45 × $20) + (1125 × $4) + (225 × $14) + (225 × $9)

= $900 + $4500 + $3150 + $2025

= $10575

Gross profit = Sales revenue - Cost

= $14625 - $10575

= $4050

The gross profit for one chainsaw will be:

= $4050/225

= $18

Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

i. Discounted cashflow equations.

a. $180,000 at the end of five years.

This is a lump sum present value/ discounted cashflow which can be calculated as;

Formula = 180,000 / ( 1 + r)^n

= 180,000/ ( 1 + 12%)^5

= $102,136.83

b. $11,400 a year forever

This is a perpetuity. The present value/ discounted cashflow of a perpetuity is calculated as;

Formula = Amount/rate

= 11,400/12%

= $95,000

c. $19,000 for each of 10 years.

This is an annuity. The formula for calculating the Present value/ discounted cashflow of an annuity is;

$Formula = Annuity * [\frac{( 1 - (1 + i)^{-n} )}{i} ]$ where i is interest rate and n is number of periods

$= 19,000 * [\frac{( 1 - (1 + 0.12)^{-10} )}{0.12} ]$

= $107,354.24

d. $6,500 next year and increasing thereafter by 5% a year forever.

This is a growing perpetuity. The present value/ discounted cashflow formula is;

= Amount / ( discount rate - growth rate)

= 6,500 / ( 12% - 5%)

= $92,857.14

ii. Choose $19,000 for each of 10 years as it has the highest present value.
