Lancaster Corp. is considering two equally risky, mutually exclusive projects, both of which have normal cash flows. Project A h

levacccp [35]

Answer:

Explanation:

IRR is the discount rate point where NPV equal to 0. Given, both projects have same NPV at 8%, when discount rate is higher than 8%, NPV of project A will decrease faster than that of project B because project A's IRR is lower than project B's IRR. When discount rate is lower than 8%, NPV of project A will increase faster than project B's.

We will go through each of the answer options:

A. If the cost of capital is 9%, Project A's NPV will be higher than Project B's. False

Explaination: Cost of capital here is higher than 8%, NPV of project A will be lower than that of project B.

B. If the cost of capital is 6%, Project B's NPV will be higher than Project A's. False

Explaination:

C. If the cost of capital is greater than 14%, Project A's IRR will exceed Project B's. False

Explaination: IRR is dependent on pattern of cashflows rather than cost of capital.

D. If the cost of capital is 9%, Project B's NPV will be higher than Project A's. True

Explaination: This is an opposite answer to option A.

E. If the cost of capital is 13%, Project A's NPV will be higher than Project B's. False

Explaination: When the cost of capital is 13%, NPV of project A is negative and NPV of project B is positive.

During the current year, Harold Company sold inventory costing $350,000 for a selling price of $675,000. Beginning balances of i

Len [333]

Answer: $351,000

Explanation:

Given that,

Cost of inventory = $350,000

Selling price = $675,000

Beginning balance of inventory = $86,000

Beginning balance of accounts payable = $116,000

ending balance of inventory = $94,000

ending balance of accounts payable = $123,000

Cash paid to suppliers:

= Cost of Goods Sold + Change in inventory - Change in accounts payable

= 350,000 + (94,000-86,000) - (123,000-116,000)

= 350,000 + 8,000 - 7,000

= $351,000

LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

The question is incomplete, so I looked for a similar one:

A wood products company has decided to purchase new logging equipment for $100,000 with a trade-in of its old equipment. The old equipment has a BV of $10,000 at the time of the trade-in. The new equipment will be kept for 10 years before being sold. Using the MACRS (GDS recovery period), what is the depreciation charge permissible at year 1?

Depreciable value using MACRS is $100,000 and logging equipment is classified as 7 year class, and I will use the half-year convention:

depreciation year 1 = $100,000 x 14.29% = $14,290
