The problem is missing some details. But here is the complete solution. Now consider the second alternative-5 annual payments of $2,000 each. Assume that the payments are made at the starting of each year.
N = 5
I = 10.25
---> this is computed by: [(1+i/n)^n] -1I = <span>[(1+10/2)^2] -1 = 10.25
</span>PV = O
PMT = -2,000
Using a financial calculator...
Future Value = 13, 528.90
Answer:
B. Increases the expected present value of lease cash flows to the owner
Explanation:
A lease option gives a right but not the obligation to the renter of the property to buy the said property at today's current market price upon the expiry of lease term.
Lease option is similar to an option contract, the difference being, here instead of securities, leased property serves as the underlying asset and instead of option premium, the renter pays a premium each year in addition to the rental charges.
Lease cash flows refer to the present value of future cash flows which the lessor/owner receives in the form of lease rentals plus the added premium each year.
The more the benefits under lease option clause, the higher the premium charged and thus, more would be the future receipts of owner which would increase the expected present value of lease cash flows to the owner.
Answer:
-$30,250 favorable
Explanation:
labor efficiency variance = (standard quantity - actual quantity) x standard labor cost
- actual quantity = 7,700 hours
- standard quantity = 9.9 hours x 1,000 units = 9,900
- standard labor cost = $13.70
labor efficiency variance = (7,700 - 9,900) x $13.70 = -$30,250 favorable variance
the variance is favorable, because less hours were actually used than forecasted
