Answer:
ROI = net profit / total investment
1. What is the current return on investment (ROI) being realized by your division
- ROI = $625,000 / $4,150,000 = 15.06%
2. What would happen to the near-term ROI of your division after adding the effect of the new investment?
- ROI = ($625,000 + $50,000) / ($4,150,000 + $550,000) = 14.36%
If you carry out the new project the ROI of your division will decrease.
3. As manager of this division, given your incentive compensation plan, would you be motivated to make the new investment?
- Even though the new project's return (9.1%) is considered acceptable by upper management, you will probably reject it since it will decrease your division's total ROI. When managers are assigned bonuses based on certain achievements, reducing your profitability ratio will probably result in no bonus.
Answer:
The payback period for this project is 2.43 years.
Explanation:
Elmer Sporting Goods is getting ready to produce a new line of golf clubs by investing $1.85 million.
The investment will result in additional cash flows of $525,000, $812,500, and 1,200,000 over the next three years.
The payback period is the time it takes to cover the investment to be covered by returns.
The investment cost remaining in the first year
= $1,850,000 - $525,000
= $1,325,000
The investment cost remaining in the second year
= $1,325,000 - $812,500
= $512,500
The third year payback
= 
= 0.427
The total payback period
= 2.43 years

Answer: Air travel is a normal good and vacation travel by car is an inferior good
Explanation: What is a normal good and what is an inferior good.
Normal goods are those goods for which the demand rises as consumer income rises. While inferior goods are goods whose demand increases when consumer income decreases.
This therefore means that the demand of inferior goods is inversely related to the income of the consumer.
From the question above, we can say that car trips are inferior goods while the air travel are normal goods.
