Answer:
1.
The annual net cost savings promised by the automated welding machine
Annual Costs savings in replacing 6 welders $108,000
Reduced Material costs $6,500
Total annual Costs savings = $114,500
Note there is a $3,000 annual maintenance cost that will then be taken off this savings amount to make up the Annual Net cash inflow of $111,500
2
A. The Net Present value is $72,227. Kindly refer to the attached document for the clear presentation
B. The project should be accepted because it delivers a positive NPV. Meaning the net benefit outweighs the cost of owning the new Assets.
3.
The Discounted net Cash flow for the 6 years (aside the initial outlay) is $402,227.
Annually this comes to $67,038.
The benefit the business gets in the switch to the automatic welders is approximately $67,038 annually.
Answer: C
Explanation:
This is because although the coupon rate is devoid of federal income tax any market discount is taxed as interest income earned. So so if there is a way that they can be taxed without jeopardizing their basic Federal income tax-free status, why not? The discount can be accreted annually and tax paid, or the tax can be paid at maturity or sale date.

This is tough to answer in 3-5 sentences, and tends to also be a heavy identifier of your possible political leanings. You'll have to apologize if some of mine leak out in the response, but this is a question we debate hotly more frequently than every 4 years.
In general, international trade can help increase the GDP and overall profits for US-based corporations. However, if all we do is export, and we don't import, other countries don't look favorably upon that and may heavily tax our goods to counter this.
I believe we do need to be thoughtful about the amounts and kinds of international trade that we engage in. For example, farming is always a hotly debated issue for international trade, in part because farmers in other countries with a dramatically lower cost of living OR farmers in countries with a favorable currency rate (exchange from their currency to our dollars gives them an advantage) can undercut our farmers here in the US, many of whom are already struggling.
There are also those who are worried that when we import produce from countries that have not outlawed pesticides we know are carcinogenic, for instance, this creates not only a disadvantage for US farmers, but also for consumers who may be concerned about health issues.
As another example of this, many countries outlawed import of US beef during the Mad Cow Epidemic. We in turn also placed bans on importing beef from the UK.
These are examples of why it's important to be thoughtful about trade, but there are certainly many others, including decline in production jobs within the US that have left cities like Detroit a ghost town (this was formerly the hub of our automotive industry production).
