Answer:

10,500

Explanation:

As per the given question the solution of the total number of clippers is provided below:-

Here we will assume the sales = x

((Economy clippers × Sales price) - (Economy clippers × Economy clipper cost)) + ((Remaining percentage × Sales) - (Remaining percentage × High end model cost) - Fixedd cost = Profit

= ((0.70x × $9) - (0.70x × $5)) + ((0.30x × $15) - (0.30x × $9)) - $35,880 = $12,420

= (6.3x - 3.5x) + (4.5x - 2.7x) = $35,880 + $12,420

= (2.8x + $1.8x) = $48,300

= 4.6x = $48300

x = $48,300 ÷ 4.6

x = $10,500

So, the total number of clippers that must be sold to earn a $12,420 profit = 10,500 clippers

Economy clippers is 70% of the market = 10,500 × 70%

= 7,350 clipper

High-end clippers is 30% of the market = 10500 × 30%

= 3,150 clipper

So, the total number of clippers = 7,350 clipper  + 3,150 clipper

= 10,500 clippers

Therefore by using the above formula we simply solve the total number of clippers.

The president of the company you work for has asked you to evaluate the proposed acquisition of a new chromatograph for the firm
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

Part A)

Year 0 net cash flow would comprise of basic price, modification cost and requirement for net working capital. The formula for cash flow in Year 0 would be:

Year 0 Net Cash Flow = -Basic Price - Modification Cost - NWC

______________

Using the values provided in the question, we get,

Year 0 Net Cash Flow = -190,000 - 47,500 - 9,500 = -$247,000

______________________

Part B:

Year 1, 2 and 3 would required adjustment for depreciation charges (under MACRS) against expected savings. The depreciation rates for 3 year class asset would be 33%, 45% and 15% for Year 1, Year 2 and Year 3 respectively.

Depreciation would be calculated on the equipment's basic price and modification cost.

The formula that can be used to calculate the net operating cash flow would be:

Net Operating Cash Flow = (Sales - Depreciation)*(1-Tax Rate) + Depreciation

______________

Using the values provided in the question, we get, the table in the attached file

Important Information:

Depreciation (Year 1) = (190,000 + 47,500)*33% = $78,375

Depreciation (Year 2) = (190,000 + 47,500)*45% = $106,875

Depreciation (Year 3) = (190,000 + 47,500)*15% = $35,625

______________________

Part C:

Additional non operating cash flow would consist of after-tax salvage value and return of net working capital. Relevant formulas are:

Additional Non Operating Cash Flow = After Tax Salvage Value + Return of Net Working Capital

After Tax Salvage Value = Sales Value +/- Tax on Loss/Gain from Sale of Asset

Loss/Gain from Sale of Asset = Sales Value - Book Value

Book Value = (Basic Price + Modification Cost)*(1-(33%+45%+15%))

______________

Using the above mentioned formulas, we get,

Book Value = (190000 + 47500)*(1-(33%+45%+15%)) = $16,625

Gain on Sale of Equipment = 66,500 - 16,625 = $49,875

Tax on Gain = $49,875*30% = $14,962.50

After Tax Salvage Value = 66,500 - 14,962.50 = $51,537.50

_____________________

Additional (Non Operating) Cash Flow = $51,537.50 + $9,500 = $61,037.50 or $61,038
