Answer:

<u>For retaining of Old Machine Equipment</u>

Price of old equipment 3 yrs ago = $130,000

O & M cost per year = $35,000

Using the Cash flow approach

End of year Cash flow 1 Old equipment

0 $0 Initial Cash flow

1 -$35,000 O & M cost per year

2 -$35,000 O & M cost per year

3 -$35,000 O & M cost per year

4 -$35,000 O & M cost per year

5 -$35,000 O & M cost per year

Hence, Annual worth = Initial cash flow + Annual cost

Annual worth = 0 - $35,000

Annual worth = -$35,000

<u>For buying of new equipment</u>

Cost of buying new crane = $150,000

Market value of old crane = $40,000

Time = 5 years

O & M cost per year = $8,000

Salvage value = $55,000

MARR = 20%

Using the Cash flow approach

End of year Cash flow 1 New equipment

0 $110,000 -$150,000 + $40,000

1 -$8,000 O & M cost per year

2 -$8,000 O & M cost per year

3 -$8,000 O & M cost per year

4 -$8,000 O & M cost per year

5 $47,000 -$8,000 + $55,000

Annual worth = Initial cash flow + Annual cost + Salvage value

Annual worth = -$110,000(A/P 20%,5) - $8,000 + $55,000(A/P 20%,5)

Annual worth = -$110,000*(0.334) - $8,000 + $55,000*(0.134)

Annual worth = -$36,781.77 - $8,000 + $7,390.88

Annual worth = -$37,908.88

Conclusion: We should retain the old machine as it is more favorable than purchase of new equipment

A company's flexible budget for the range of 35,000 units to 45,000 units of production showed variable overhead costs of $2 per

Gnom [1K]

Answer:

c. $3,200 favorable.

Explanation:

We know that

Total controllable cost variance = Budgeted overhead cost - actual overhead cost

where,

Budgeted overhead cost = Variable overhead + Fixed overhead

where,

Variable overhead = 40,000 units × $2 = $80,000

And, the fixed overhead = $72,000

So, the budgeted overhead = $152,000

And, the actual one is $148,800

So, the total controllable cost variance would be

= $152,000 - $148,800

= $3,200 favorable

Determine if the people in the example have benefited (i.e., are winners) or have been harmed (i.e., are losers) by unexpected i

nevsk [136]

Answer:

Winners

3rd National, a bank that loaned many people money for home purchases.

Losers

Karen, a retired school teacher that relies upon her fixed pension to pay for her expenses.

Herb, who keeps his savings in an old coffee can.

Joy, who has borrowed $40,000 to pay her college education.

The US federal government which had almost $15 trillion in debt in 2011.

Explanation:

When unexpected inflation occurs, the usual plan to by Monetary Institutions of a country is raising the interest rates.

By doing that, they want to stop it or slowly decelerate it.

So that it becomes more expensive to take a loan, the idea is to reduce consumption.

In Economics, it's a bad scenario after all. Few winners. Many losers.

So, let's examine them

Winners

3rd National, a bank that loaned many people money for home purchases.

At first, The 3rd National is going to be winning since the value of the debt will rise, depending on the type of contract and an increase in the interest rate will demand corrections on the monthly payments. But on the other hand, the number of default clients and overdue installments will raise for sure.

Losers

Karen, a retired school teacher that relies upon her fixed pension to pay for her expenses.

Inflation reduces the real buying value of her checks. And her pension can't grow otherwise this will feed the inflation too.

Herb, who keeps his savings in an old coffee can.

Since his money is not invested then He's not having any earning that might give him some compensation. So his money is even more devalued.

Joy, who has borrowed $40,000 to pay her college education.

Depending on the contract Joy might be sleepless. Either her monthly payments will become more expensive or She may experience difficulties because of the weekly growing prices.

The US federal government had almost $15 trillion in debt in 2011.

Certainly, the president and his secretary will have to address the fact that due to inflation and the chosen medicine make the nation's debt up to the sky. They must renegotiate the payment deadlines.
