A tradeoff is a balance achieved between two desirable but incompatible feature. So the reasonable answer would be B
Answer:
Yes, Tangshan Mining company should accept the project.
Explanation:
Payback period is the number of years it takes for a project's expected cash inflows to recover the initial investment amount.
Tangshan company's required payback period = 3.5 years
<u>Year CF Net CF</u>
0 -5,000,000 -5,000,000
1 1,800,000 -3,200,000
2 1,900,000 -1,300,000
3 700,000 -600,000
4 1,800,000 1,200,000
<em>Payback period = last year with -net CF +(absolute net CF that year /total CF the following year)</em>
Payback period = 3 + (600,000 / 1,800,000)
=3 + 0.33
= 3.33 years
Since 3.33 years is lower than the required payback period of 3.5 years, Tangshan Mining company should ACCEPT the new project; it will take less years to fully recover the initial amount investment.
Answer:
22%
Explanation:
The formula to compute the accounting rate of return is shown below:
= Average net income ÷ average investment
where,
Average net income is
= Total income ÷ number of years
= $148,500 ÷ 5 years
= $29,700
And, the average investment would be
= (Cost - salvage value) ÷ 2
= ($300,000 - $30,000) ÷ 2
= $270,000 ÷ 2
= $135,000
Now put these values to the above formula
So, the rate would equal to
= $29,700 ÷ $135,000
= 22%
