Answer:
option (c) 8 years
Explanation:
Data provided in the question:
Cost of the machine = $240,000
Useful life = 10 years
Salvage value = 0
Net income = $6,000 each year
Now,
Using the straight-line method of depreciation 
Annual depreciation = [ Cost - Salvage value ] ÷ Useful life
= [ $240,000 - 0 ] ÷ 10
= $24,000
Thus,
Cash flow = $6,000 + $24,000
= $30,000
Therefore,
The payback period = ( Cost ) ÷ ( Cash flow )
= $240,000 ÷ $30,000
= 8 years
Hence,
the correct answer is option (c) 8 years

Explanation:
Break even is the point where neither profit nor a loss is made by the company.
<u>Determination of Break-even Sales</u>
Sales - Variable Expenses - Fixed Expenses = 0
Therefore, Solving Algebraically
Sales = Variable Expenses + Fixed Expenses
          = 222,000 + 55,000
          = 277,000
Therefore Break-even sales for the month for the company is closest to $277,000
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
The answer is "Option b".
Explanation:
In this scenario, the second option, which would be the percentage within each transaction that's also interest instead of the full amount, would've been lower if the rate of interest were lower because interest-related transactions would have been higher at lower rates and conversely, as opposed to the main refunds.
