Answer:
A) attractive; timely; durable; and anchored in a product, service, or business that creates or adds value for its buyer or end user
Explanation:
A true business opportunity;
- is attractive, must have high profit expectations.
- must be durable, should last at least a few years, not only a one time event.
- must present itself at the right moment and time. Sometimes great ideas are left behind because they are too disruptive, e.g. the Nash Rambler built in 1950 was the first compact car but wasn't very successful. Japanese compact cars became successful in the 1970s.
- must be anchored in a product or service that your company can provide that satisfies consumers' needs.

B is going to be your answer
Answer:
(A) Payback period for the machine= 3.5 years
(B) Simple rate of return for the machine= 87.5%
Explanation:
Alesu corporation is considering purchasing a machine that would cost $283,850
The useful life is 5 years
The machine would reduce cash operating costs by $81,100 per year
The salvage value is $107,100
(A) The payback period for the machine can be calculated as follows
= cost/amount of cash flow
= 283,850/81,100
= 3.5 years
(B) The simple rate of return for the machine can be calculated as follows
First we calculate the depreciation expense
= 283,850-107,100/5
= 176,750/5
= 35,350
Annual incremental income= cost savings -depreciation expenses
= 283,850-35,350
= 248,500
Simple rate of return = annual incremental income/cost × 100
= 248,500/283,850 × 100
= 0.875 × 100
= 87.5%
Answer:
a.
Date Account Title Debit Credit
Jan. 31 Product Warranty Expense $15,160
Product Warranty Payable $15,160
<u>Working:</u>
Product warranty expense = Amount of sales for January * Estimated product warranty
= 379,000 * 4%
= $15,160
b.
Date Account Title Debit Credit
Jan. 31 Product Warranty Payable $355
Supplies $250
Wages payable $105
The costs of the warranty will be taken from the liability account for warranties because the warranty payable account represents that the company owes warranty repairs which the customer just came to collect.
