In an effort to reduce pipe breakage, water hammer, and product agitation, a French chemical company plans to install several ch

emically resistant pulsation dampeners. The cost of the dampeners today is €125,000, but the chemical company has to wait until a permit is approved for its bidirectional port-to-plant product pipeline. The permit approval process will take at least 2 years because of the time required for preparation of an environmental impact statement. Because of intense foreign competition, the manufacturer plans to increase the price only by the inflation rate of 4% each year. Determine the cost of the dampeners in 5 years in terms of (a) then-current euros and (b) constant-value euros?

Answer:

a)  €152081.6128

b)  €125000

Explanation:

a) The cost of dampners in terms of then-current euros :

current cost x(1 + inflation rate)ⁿ where n is the number of years.

Since the price of dampners is expected to increase only by 4% per year from the current price of €125,000 in 5 years:

We calculate : 125000 (1+0.04)⁵ = €152081.6128

The cost of dampeners in terms of then-current euros is €152081.6128

b) The cost of dampners in terms of constant value will remain as at today's current price if the value of Euros remains constant . Therefore, The cost of dampeners in terms of constant-value euros is €125,000.

xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

$12 and $180

Explanation:

The computation of the predetermined overhead rate is shown below:

As we know that

The predetermined overhead rate is

= Estimated total indirect cost  ÷ expected direct labor hours

= $96,000 ÷ 8,000

= $12

And, the indirect cost is

= Predetermined overhead rate × number of hours

= $12 × 15

= $180

We simply applied the above formula

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

a. For the maximum amount that spend each month on mortgage payment is

= Gross annual income ÷ total number of months in a year × mortgage payment percentage

= $39,600 ÷ 12 months × 28%

= $924

b. . For the maximum amount that spend each month on total credit obligatons

= Gross annual income ÷ total number of months in a year × mortgage payment percentage

= $39,600 ÷ 12 months × 36%

= $1,188

c. Now the maximum amount spend for all other debt is

For monthly mortgage

= $924 × 70%

= $646.8

snow_lady [41]

Answer:

Financial disadvantage from further processing = $(9)

Explanation:

<em>A company should process further a product if the additional revenue from the split-off point is greater than than the further processing cost.  </em>

<em>Also note that all cost incurred up to the split-off point (the cost of crushing) are irrelevant to the decision to process further .  </em>

                                                                                                  $

Sales revenue after crushing                                                55                          

Sales revenue at the split-off point                                        <u>81</u>

Additional sales revenue                                                       26

Further processing cost                                                        <u> (35)</u>

Net income after further processing                                     <u> (9) </u>

Financial disadvantage from further processing = $(9)

<em>Kindly note that the allocated joint costs( cost of sugar and crushing) are irrelevant. This implies that whether or not the intermediate products are processed further the joint costs are irrelevant to the decision to process the beet juice further</em>.
