Answer:

$55,000

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Income in 2016 = $50,000

Nominal income in 2017 = $70,000

CPI in 2016 = 100

CPI in 2017 = 110

Now,

Purchasing power in 2017 = [ CPI of 2017 ÷ CPI of 2016 ] × Income in 2016

or

Purchasing power =  [ 110 ÷ 100 ] × $50,000

or

Purchasing power = 1.1 × $50,000

or

Purchasing power = $55,000

Korvikt [17]

Answer:

<u>For retaining of Old Machine Equipment</u>

Price of old equipment 3 yrs ago = $130,000

O & M cost per year = $35,000

Using the Cash flow approach

End of year   Cash flow 1   Old equipment

0                            $0            Initial Cash flow

1                         -$35,000     O & M cost per year

2                        -$35,000     O & M cost per year

3                        -$35,000     O & M cost per year

4                        -$35,000     O & M cost per year

5                        -$35,000     O & M cost per year

Hence, Annual worth = Initial cash flow + Annual cost

Annual worth = 0 - $35,000

Annual worth = -$35,000

<u>For buying of new equipment</u>

Cost of buying new crane = $150,000

Market value of old crane = $40,000

Time = 5 years

O & M cost per year = $8,000

Salvage value = $55,000

MARR = 20%

Using the Cash flow approach

End of year   Cash flow 1   New equipment

0                         $110,000    -$150,000 + $40,000

1                         -$8,000     O & M cost per year

2                        -$8,000     O & M cost per year

3                        -$8,000     O & M cost per year

4                        -$8,000     O & M cost per year

5                        $47,000     -$8,000 + $55,000

Annual worth = Initial cash flow + Annual cost + Salvage value

Annual worth = -$110,000(A/P 20%,5) - $8,000 + $55,000(A/P 20%,5)

Annual worth = -$110,000*(0.334) - $8,000 + $55,000*(0.134)

Annual worth = -$36,781.77 - $8,000 + $7,390.88

Annual worth = -$37,908.88

Conclusion: We should retain the old machine as it is more favorable than purchase of new equipment

Serga [27]

In the perfectly competitive market and in the long run, the firms who are making losses will exit the market and those firms who are able produce at a point where price is equal to the average total cost will exist in the market.

However, monopolistic firms operates at a below efficient level of production and with an excess capacity.

Competitive firms are generally enjoys the productive efficiency in the long run because these firms have the capability to produce at a lower average total cost.
