Answer:

The options for this question are the following:

A. Companies do not want to eliminate all jobs at once.

B. Machines cannot do the jobs of humans, like recommend cancer cures or make banking decisions.

C.  There is a level of reasoning and strategy that only humans have the ability to do.

D. Machines are only useful in manufacturing duties.

The correct answer is C. There is a level of reasoning and strategy that only humans have the ability to do.

Explanation:

There are two variables that limit machines. One is the excessive consumption of energy that some devices require to carry out their activities.

For example, some prototypes that simulate some everyday human tasks, such as walking or doing housework, typically have a battery life of 15-20 minutes.

The second has to do with the costs of incorporating high-end computers that allow robots to recognize spaces and make decisions on the go.

“For a human being it is easy to identify if he is in a room, a room or a hall. Robots need cameras and computers to process that information, "adds Ramírez.

To understand that point, a relationship must be established: a home computer has four cores to process information. However, artifacts of up to 50 cores are needed to perform these space recognition operations in a timely manner, which would increase the cost of robot production.

jolli1 [7]

The expected increase in revenues is $2,20,000 .

The expected increase in costs is $1,40,000.

The Selling price per unit for the new 10,000 units order is $22. So, increase in revenues is to the extent of (10,000 × $22).

The question assumes excess capacity, hence fixed expenses will remain the same. The increase in Variable costs to the extent of (10,000 × $14) will contribute to an increase in costs.

Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

a. What is the Year 0 net cash flow?

  • = $1,102,500 + $15,500 = $1,118,000

b. What are the net operating cash flows in Years 1, 2, 3?

  • NCF Year 1 = $375,496.38
  • NCF Year 2 = $418,521.44
  • NCF Year 3 = $304,148.09

c. What is the additional Year 3-cash flow (i.e. after tax salvage and the return of working capital)?

  • $355,433.10

d. If the project's cost of capital is 12%, should the machine be purchased?

  • NPV = $20,384.22 since it is positive, then the project should be carried out and the machine should be purchased.

Explanation:

book value of the robotic sprayer = $1,080,000 + $22,500 = $1,102,500

useful life 3 years, salvage value $605,000

MACRS 3-year class:

0.333 x $1,102,500 = $367,132.50

0.4445 x $1,102,500 = $490,061.25

0.1481 x $1,102,500 = $163,280.25

requires an additional $15,500 investment in inventory

saves $380,000 per year

marginal tax rate 35%

net cash flow year 1 = [net savings x (1 - tax rate)] + (depreciation expense x tax rate) = ($380,000 x 65%) + ($367,132.50 x 35%) = $247,000 + $128,496.38 = $375,496.38

net cash flow year 2 = [net savings x (1 - tax rate)] + (depreciation expense x tax rate) = ($380,000 x 65%) + ($490,061.25 x 35%) = $247,000 + $171,521.44 = $418,521.44

net cash flow year 3 = [net savings x (1 - tax rate)] + (depreciation expense x tax rate) = ($380,000 x 65%) + ($163,280.25 x 35%) = $247,000 + $57,148.09 = $304,148.09

terminal cash flow = [sales price - (purchase cost - accumulated depreciation)] x (1 - tax rate) + recovered net working capital = [$605,000 - ($1,102,500 - $1,020,474)] x 0.65 + $15,500 = $355,433.10  

using an excel spreadsheet I calculated the NPV:

Year 0 -$1,118,000

Year 1 $375,496.38

Year 2 $418,521.44

Year 3 $304,148.09 + $355,433.10 = $659,581.19

discount rate 12%

NPV = $20,384.22

A coffee company lowers the price of its one-pound bags of coffee from $10 to $9 and as a result, the quantity demanded increase
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

Slope = -1

Explanation:

Demand is buyers ability & willingness to buy at a price, time.

Demand Curve is graphical representation of quantity demanded at various prices at y axis, demand at x axis.

Slope = Change in Y i.e ∆Y / Change in X i.e ∆X

'Slope of Demand Curve' is a varied version of 'Price Elasticity of Demand' i.e quantity demanded responsiveness to change in price. Former shows relative change in quantity demanded over a change in price & latter shows change in price for a given change in quantity demanded.

Demand Curve Price at Y axis, Quantity at Axis, Slope= ∆Y/∆X becomes

= ∆P/∆Q. As per given details, ∆P/∆Q = (9-10)/(5-4) = -1/1 = -1
