Keeping the appropriate cash flow in the cash flow register, using a financial calculator, NPV should be calculated for taking the decision.
Answer: According to the NPV calculated, Chen should buy a new machine.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Cash outflow = $40000
Increase in annual after-tax cash flows : CF = $9000
Place the cash flow on a time line:
0 1 2 10
I 10 I I . . . I
-110000 19000 19000 19000
With a financial calculator, input the appropriate cash flow into the cash flow register, input I/YR = 10, and then solve for NPV. The answer for NPV is $6746.78.
Thus, Chen should buy a new machine.
Answer:
$1.75
Explanation:
Earnings per share to be reported = Earnings per share of commo stock * (1 - 4%)
Earnings per share to be reported = $1.82 * 96%
Earnings per share to be reported = $1.7472
Earnings per share to be reported = $1.75
So, the 2019 earnings per share to be reported in the annual report for 2020 are $1.75.

We add the units purchase and the subtotal to get the total units available for sale.
Ending inventory physical units: 970 - 810 = 160 units
<u>Then, we calculate for each method:</u>
Weighted average:
cost of goods / available units = 10,190 / 970 = 10.51
160 units x 10.51 = 1,681.6
LIFO:
Ending inventory will be the oldest units:
160 units x 8 = 960
FIFO:
Ending inventory will be the newest units as the units are sold as soon as they come in
90 x 15 = 1,350
70 x 13 = 910
Total 2,260
Answer:
(c). no longer satisfies a sufficient number of customers
Explanation:
Product deletion refers to removal or discontinuance of a product from the product line when such a product has been consistently incurring losses since a number of years and it's further continuation would adversely affect the other products and profitability.
A product is usually deleted from the product line on the grounds of it's failure in satisfying a sufficient number of customers.
Hence, the correct option is (c). no longer satisfies a sufficient number of customers.
