a. Calculate NPV, IRR, MIRR, payback, and discounted payback for each project
Dry Prepreg
NPV = $4,330
IRR = 19.86%
MIRR = 17.12%
payback = 3 years
discounted payback = 4.17 years
Solvent Prepreg
NPV = $6,130
IRR = 16.80%
MIRR = 15.51%
payback = 3.21 years
discounted payback = 4.58 years
b. Assuming the projects are independent, which one(s) would you recommend?
- both projects, since their NPV is positive
c. If the projects are mutually exclusive, which would you recommend?
Dry prepreg becuase its IRR, MIRR are higher, and its payback and discounted payback periods are shorter.
Answer:
An increase in the interest rate (r), ceteris paribus, will cause planned investment to decrease.
Explanation:
An increase in the interest rates determined by the Federal Reserve would imply that the American financial system would pay larger sums of money for direct investments in banks or bonds, which would stop capital investment outside the public financial system, that is, in stocks. private, real estate investments, etc., since money would be invested at a higher profit in safer sectors of the market.
Answer:
a. under applied.
Explanation:
For computing, whether it is under applied or over applied first, we have to compute the predetermined overhead rate. The formula is shown below:
Predetermined overhead rate = (Total estimated manufacturing overhead) ÷ (estimated direct labor-hours)
Now we have to find the applied overhead which equal to
= Actual direct labor-hours × predetermined overhead rate
So, the ending overhead equals to
= Actual manufacturing overhead - applied overhead
= under-applied
If actual overhead is more than the applied overhead
