Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

Mrs Smith either shut down the business or invest in efficient equipements that lowers the total cost to below $7

Explanation:

The reason is that the you can not make profit if you product is sold in the market at a higher price than the competitor who offers the same product with the same features. So here, Smith can not make profits by selling the product at $8 because here total cost is $8.25 per unit.

So either she should invest in the business equipments which bring efficiencies and keeps the total costs to below $7 or she should shut down her business because the business is turned into loss making machine.

saw5 [17]

Answer:

While taking a capital budgeting decision of source of fund, or the capital project to be chosen, we sometimes use Payback Period

It is defined as the tenure in which the cash flows will realize the cost of project, that is the period in which the entire cost will be paid back.

This provides the information regarding the time after which the project will be profitable, or the time at which it will reach break even.

The payback uses the criteria that if the payback period calculated is less than life of project it shall be accepted, in case it is equal to life of project then  there will be no profit no loss, and in case payback is higher than life of project then there will be loss.
