Answer:

The price elasticity of demand is -1.40

Explanation:

E = [Q2-Q1/(Q2+Q1/2)]/[P2-P1/(P2+P1/2)]

  = [200-50/(200+50/2)] / [1-2.5/(1+2.5/2)]

  = [150/125]/[1.5/1.75]

  = 1.2/0.8571

  = -1.4 0

the price elasticity of demand is -1.40

Management team of Wolverine Corp. is considering the purchase of a new piece of equipment. They believe that new equipment is m
muminat

Answer:

Wolverine Corp.

a. The accounting rate of return = 50%

b. The payback period = 6 years ($200,000 * 6)

c. The net present value = ($39,600)

d. The net present value at 15% = ($237,200)

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Initial investment cost in new equipment = $1,200,000

Annual incremental net income from cost savings = $200,000

Salvage value of the new equipment = $200,000

Estimated useful life of equipment = 8 years

Hurdle rate = 10%

a. Accounting rate of return = (($200,000 * 8 + $200,000) - $1,200,000)/$1,200,000

= ($1,800,000 - $1,200,00)/$1,200,000

= $600,000/$1,200,000 * 100 = 50%

NPV at 10% hurdle rate:

Initial investment = $1,200,000 * 1 = $1,200,000

Annual incremental savings:

= $200,000 * 5.335 =                        $1,067,000

Salvage value = $200,000 * 0.467         93,400

Total benefits                                     $1,160,400

NPV =                                                    ($39,600)

NPV at 15% hurdle rate:

Initial investment = $1,200,000 * 1 = $1,200,000

Annual incremental savings:

= $200,000 * 4.487 =                           $897,400

Salvage value = $200,000 * 0.327         65,400

Total benefits                                      $962,800

NPV =                                                  ($237,200)

Which of the following statements is true of copyright? There are different copyright rules for pre and post 1978 works. Congres
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

Correct option is (a), Different copyright rules for pre and post 1978 works

Explanation:

Copyright is a right given exclusively a person who has created a new work and reproduce it for a stipulated time. It is granted for a stipulated time period.

For all creations after 1978, copyright is granted for the years that the creator live and seventy years after his life.

For creations before 1978, that were not published, same rules are applicable as of post 1978 period. However, for works published before 1978, copyright was granted for total 95 years that is divided between 28 years from the date of registration of work and renewed for 67 years on expiry.

So copyright rules differ for works published pre and post 1978.
