Answer:
$4 advantage
Explanation:
In this question we need to compare the cost between the relevant cost and the outside supplier cost
The relevant cost is
= Direct material per unit + direct labor per unit + variable manufacturing overhead per unit + fixed manufacturing overhead per unit
= $8 + $5 + $3 + $5 × 80%
= $8 + $5 + $3 + $4
= $20
Since 80% of the fixed manufacturing cost above is eliminated so we considered the same
And, the outside supplier cost is $16
So based on the above calculation, the financial advantage is
= $20 - $16
= $4 advantage
This shows the company should purchased from outside supplier as it saves $4
Answer:
A. NPV for A= $61,658.06
NPV for B = $25,006.15
B. 1.36
1.17
Project A
Explanation:
Net present value is the present value of after tax cash flows from an investment less the amount invested.
NPV can be calcuated using a financial calculator
for project A :
Cash flow in
Year 0 = $(172,325)
Year 1 41,000
Year 2 47,000
Year 3 85,295
Year 4 86,400
Year 5 56,000
I = 10%
NPV = $61,658.06
for project B
year 0 = $ (145,960)
Cash flow in
Year 1 27,000
Year 2 52,000
Year 3 50,000
Year 4 71,000
Year 5 28,000
I = 10%
NPV = $25,006.15
profitability index = 1 + NPV / Initial investment
for project A, PI = $61,658.06 / 172,325 = 1.36
For project B, PI = $25,006.15 / 145,960 = 1.17
The project with the greater NPV and PI should be chosen. this is project A.
To find the NPV using a financial calculator:
1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.
2. after inputting all the cash flows, press the NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.
3. Press compute
Answer: closed shop
Explanation:
From the question, we are informed that in the late 1930s management at Atalanta Industries agreed to hire only those workers who were already members of the Electrical Union.
It should be noted that here, Atlanta agreed to a type of arrangement known as closed shop. This occurs when the workers have to belong to a particular union before they'll be employed. This was legal in 1930 but it was later declared illegal by Taft Hartley Act.
Answer:
The correct answer is True.
Explanation:
In the business world, the only good thing we can get out of the times of crisis is that they give you the opportunity to reinvent your company, products or services completely, whether it is to remain competitive or to survive.
The change may come due to crisis situations, the appearance of new competitors, changes in consumer habits or tastes.
