Answer:
Cumulative net present value of the project is:
= $33.5 million.
The discounted cash flow rate of return is:
= 26%
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
The capital cost of the combined heat and power system = $23 million
Expected net savings per year = $10 million
Project period = 10 years
Discount rate = 12%
Annuity PV factor for 10 years at 12% = 5.650
Total PV of the cash flows = $56.5 million (5.650 * $10 million)
NPV of the project = $33.5 million
Annualized NPV = $33.5 million/5.650
= $5,929,204
Discounted cash flow rate of return = Annualized NPV/Investment * 100
= $5,929,204/$23,000,000 * 100 = 26%
Answer:
1. a. Only major materials and components.
Only the major materials and components are include as direct materials because these are the materials that directly needed for production.
b. Only hourly production workers (aka assembly workers).
The direct labor has to be those people who are directly involved in production which in this case is the assembly workers. Managers and Supervisors are not integral so are not direct labor.
c. Both big items that cannot be traced (e.g., factory rent) and small items that are not worth tracing (e.g., glue, grease).
All other items involved in production should be included as manufacturing overheads including big items and small items that cannot be traced.
2.
Rent for the factory building ⇒ <u>Manufacturing Overhead (OH).</u>
Cost of engines used in production ⇒ <u>Direct materials (DM).</u>
Depreciation on production equipment ⇒ <u>Manufacturing Overhead (OH). </u>
Cost of lubricant used in production. ⇒<u> Manufacturing Overhead (OH). </u>
Production supervisor's salary. ⇒ <u>Manufacturing Overhead (OH). </u>
Assembly workers' wages. ⇒ <u>Direct Labor.</u>
Answer:
Talikastan's exports in 2015 is $ 300.
Explanation:
This question requires us to calculate export of Talikastan. We can easily determine export by putting value in the equation use for calculating gross domestic production of a country.
GDP = consumption + investment + spending + (exports – imports)
8800 = 5300 + 2000 + 1800 + export - 600
Export = $ 300
Answer: 14.59%
Explanation:
The Internal Rate of Return(IRR) is the discount rate that brings the Net Present Value to zero. It is used to decide the viability of projects. The project is generally considered viable if the Cost of capital is less than the IRR.
You can use Excel to calculate the IRR;
= IRR(-15,800,6,500,7,800,6,300)
From the picture attached you can see that the IRR is 14.59%
