A. Calculation for how many dollars will the cash management system free up

First step is to calculate for Additional collections

Using this formula

Additional collections=Daily collections× Numbers of days to speed up

Let plug in the formula

Additional collections= $2,250,000 million per day × 3 days speed up

Additional collections=$6,750,000

Second step is to calculate for delayed disbursements using this formula

Delayed disbursements= Daily disbursement × Numbers of Days for slow down

Let plug in the formula

Delayed disbursements= $1,050,000 million per day ×0.5

Delayed disbursements= 525,000

Last step is to calculate for the freed up fund using this formula

Freed up fund=Additional collections+Delayed disbursements

Let plug in the formula

Freed up fund=$6,750,000 + 525,000

Freed up fund=$7,275,000

Therefore the amount of dollars that the cash management system will free up is $7,275,000

B. Calculation for how much will the income be using this formula

Income =Freed up fund× Interest rate

Let plug in the formula

Income=$7,275,000×6%

Income=$436,500

Therefore the income amount will be $436,500

C. YES it should be implemented reason be that the income amount of $436,500 is $36,500 ($435,600- $400,000) higher than New system total cost of the amount of $400,000

vekshin1

Answer:

The increase in gross profit is $12,374.93

Explanation:

The increase in sales due to purchasing this new equipment is 25% of current sales figure of $750,000

increase in sales=$750,000*25%=$187,500

variable cost on the increase in sales is 55%=$187500 *55%=$103,125

The annual depreciation charge on the new equipment=cost of the new equipment-salvage value/useful life

cost of the new equipment is $357,500.37

salvage value is $0

useful life of the new equipment is 5 years

annual depreciation charge=($357,500.37-$0)/5=$ 71,500.07

Increase/(decrease) in annual gross profit=$187,000-$103,125-$ 71,500.07 =$12,374.93
