Answer:

The correct answer is option e.

Explanation:

Going to the concert will be a rational decision if the cost incurred is equal to the benefit earned.

Here, the ticket costs $50. Since the ticket is lost a new ticket is needed.

The value of time is $25.

The total cost will include both implicit as well as explicit costs.

The explicit cost is the cost of tickets. The implicit cost is the value of time.

The total cost involved is

= $50 + $50 + $25

= $125

For the decision to be rational the benefit earned should be at least equal to $125.

Fixed cost per unit is inversely proportional to the volume of units produced.
Levart [38]
True. Fixed cost per unit is inversely proportional to the volume of units produced.

Fixed costs per unit are inversely proportional to the volume produced because depending on the amount of units made, the amount spent on fixed costs is then based. Because they are related to one another, this statement is true.

Papessa [141]

Answer:

4.2 years

Explanation:

Here is the complete question

Project A requires a $ 385,000 initial investment for new machinery with a five year life and a salvage value of $44,000. The company uses straight - line depreciation . Project A is expected to yield annual net income of $ 23,100 per year for the next five years.

Required:

Compute Project A's payback period.

Payback = amount invested / cash flow

cash flow = net income + depreciation

depreciation = (cost of asset - salvage value) / useful life

(385,000 - 44,000) / 5 = 68,200

Cash flow = 68,200 + $ 23,100 = 91300

$ 385,000 / 91300 =4.2

Non-toxic-toys currently has $400,000 of equity and is planning a $160,000 expansion to meet increasing demand for its product.
Rashid [163]

Answer:

1. $100,000 and 25%

2. $137,200 and 34.3%

3. $150,000 and 27%

Explanation:

1. It does not expand

    a. Net income= $100,000 (as given in the question)

    b. Return on equity= (net income)/(shareholder’s equity)

Shareholder’s equity= $400,000

Thus return on equity= 100000/400000 = 0.25  or 25%

2. It expands and issue $160,000 in debt

    a. Net income= $100000 + 50000 –  12800 (debt interest 8% of     $160000)

= $137,200

b. Return on equity= (net income)/(shareholder’s equity)

= 137200/400000

=0.343  or 34.3%

3. It expands and raises equity of $160000

a. Net Income= $100000 + 50000

= $150000

b. Return on equity= (net income)/(shareholder’s equity)

= 150000/(400000 + 160000)

Where ($560,000) 400000 + 160000 is shareholder’s equity

= 0.27 or 27%
