Serjik [45]

Answer:

A) In Best Case: revenues rise by 10% while costs decline by 10%. In the worst case, profits are declining by 10%, while costs are rising by 10%.

Scenario Unit sales Variable costs Fixed costs

Base 360 $16,300 $334,000

Best 396 $14,670 $300,600

Worst 324 $17,930 $367,400

b), c) Using the tax shield approach, the OCF and NPV for the base case estimate is:

OCF(base) = [($19,800 – 16,300)(360) – 334,000](0.60) + 0.40(1,006,000/4)

OCF(base)= $656,200

NPV(base) = –$1,006,000 + $656,200(PVIFA14%,4)

NPV(base) = $905,978.01

OCF(worst) = [($19,800 – 17,930)(324) – 367,400](0.60) + 0.40(1,006,000/4)

OCF(worst)= $243,688

NPV(worst) = –$1,006,000 + $243,688(PVIFA14%,4)

NPV(worst) = $ (295,963.28)

OCF(best) = [($19,800 – 14,670)(396) – 300,600](0.60) + 0.40(1,006,000/4)

OCF(best)= $1,139,128

NPV(best) = –$1,006,000 + $1,139,128(PVIFA14%,4)

NPV(best) = $2,313,091.27

d) OCF and NPV with Fixed Costs 344,000

OCF(base) = [($19,800 – 16,300)(360) – 344,000](0.60) + 0.40(1,006,000/4)

OCF(base)= $650,200

NPV(base) = –$1,006,000 + $650,200(PVIFA14%,4)

NPV(base) = $888,295.74

e) (Change in NPV in Case d wrt Case c)/Change in FC,

(888,295.74 - 905,978.01)/(10,000) = -1.75

ELEN [110]

Explanation:

5.1 Discuss the role of personal selling in promoting products. What advantages does personal selling offer over other forms of promotion?

Personal selling is a traditional sales method that consists of a more personalized service and a more efficient product promotion compared to other forms of promotion. This is due to the fact that, in a personal sale, there is the direct influence of the seller to explain the functionalities and characteristics of a product, which is usually done using sales and negotiation techniques that directly influence the buyer to feel the need for the product that is being promoted. The advantages of personal selling as opposed to other types of promotion, is the possibility of reducing the time and effort of purchase, since in this type of sale, the seller goes to the customer to offer the product.

5.2 What are the major advantages of personal selling to the company selling a product? What are the advantages to the person or company buying the product?

The biggest advantages of personal selling for the company that sells a product is the greater possibility of having a closed purchase, since the potential sales are made with your potential customers. There is also a decrease with other types of product promotion, which can be costly, such as advertising an advertisement on television, and which may not generate the expected goal of increasing product sales.

The advantages for the person or company that buys the product is the possibility of knowing and seeing the functionality of the product before purchasing and the possibility of negotiating and providing meaningful feedback, which can influence the seller to make the sales proposal more flexible by making it more attractive to the customer. Personal selling also creates value for the customer, as the service is personalized, based on their profile, characteristics, desires and needs.

Vextra Corporation is considering the purchase of new equipment costing $40,500. The projected annual cash inflow is $12,100, to

stealth61 [152]

Answer:

Net present value = $3,749

so correct option is $3,749

Explanation:

given data

Present value of cash outflow = $40,500

annual cash inflow = $12,100

useful life = 4 years

rate on return = 12 %

present value of an annuity = $1

to find out

net present value

solution

we know here Present value annuity factor @12% for 4 years is given as

Present value annuity factor @12% for 4 years = 3.0373

so we get here Present value of cash inflow that is express as

Present value of cash inflow = Annual cash flow × Present value annuity .........................1

put here value we get

Present value of cash inflow = $12,100 × 3.0373

Present value of cash inflow = $36,751

so now we get Net present value that is express as

Net present value = Present value of cash outflow - Present value of cash inflow .................2

put here value we get

Net present value = $40,500 - $36,751

Net present value = $3,749

so correct option is $3,749
