Answer:

45 days

Explanation:

Data provided

Credit Sales = $400,000

Accounts receivable turnover ratio = Credit Sales ÷ Average Accounts Receivables

= $400,000 ÷ ($100,000 + 0) ÷ 2

= 8 times

Average number of collection days = 360 ÷ Accounts Receivable turnover ratio

= 360 ÷ 8

= 45 days

Therefore for computing the average number of collection days we simply divide accounts receivable turnover ratio  by 360.

1. Identify and briefly discuss three factors which influence the choice of crops produced by commercial farmers?[ 2. What is th
wolverine [178]

Answer:

1. a) Location,

    b) earnings

    c) Whether the crop can be produced by its resources or not

Explanation:

Farmer traders consider location as an important element for their crops, the location depends on the quality of the land and the taxes it will pay, and the location of their crop is important for the transport of their products to ensure they arrive in the best condition to the market.

Likewise, the farmer considers as an influential factor how much profit he will obtain with the harvested product, choosing to cultivate the one that produces the greatest benefits, also he must consider having all the labor and resources that are necessary to carry out his harvest and be able to transport it to market it.      

2. Dairy producers need to consider the proximity of farms to the distribution market because the product has a limited time to go expire .

Explanation:

Dairy products are the most delicate and difficult to transport since they have a short time to expire, this is one of the reasons that commercial farmers should take into account that the location of their farm is at a considerable distance from the market, in this way being able to transport their product more safely and distribute it without fear that it expires and lose all their profits.

3. A commercial farmer is concerned with two costs, one of which is the cost of transportation and the other cost is whether there will be a benefit to his crop.

Explanation:  

Commercial farmers at the time of cultivation consider two very important costs for them, one of them the cost of transporting their products to the place of distribution, so they must ensure that it is not very high since it is also important for them the benefit they will get, for this reason, farmers take care that the investment is less so they can enjoy good profits.

   

4. Von Thunen's theory mentions that the distance to the market is a critical point for farmers. Von Thunen explains that a farmer's earnings may decrease the further from the market where he sells his products.

Explanation:

5.  1. One of Von Thunen's assumptions is that there is only one market available and it is self-sufficient without outside influence.

    2. Another assumption is the physical environment is uniform; without rivers, mountains, etc.

    3. And one last assumption is that all farmers act to maximize profits.

Explanation:

1. In Von Thunen's first assumption, he considers there is only one market available and it does not need external influences, but this assumption may not be so correct since there cannot be a single market due to the consumer demand that exists and because there are other farmers from different cities that will bring their products, also cities need an external influence for change, and changes are necessary for the growth of the city.

2. In his theory, Von Thunen mentions the physical environment of the places for agricultural production is uniform, which is difficult due to the landforms that create modifications in the terrain, this uniformity that Thunen mentions could only be achieved if the grounds were modified by men.

3. Thunen's last assumption mentions a very successful situation where farmers carry out actions to obtain the greatest profits, they will continue working to continue obtaining the best benefits.

6. 1. In the middle ring is the market. The market is central because it is the most important part of the city and is easily accessible from the surrounding areas.

   2. The next ring consists of intensive farming and dairy. These products are closer because they are in higher demand and other products can expire.

  3. The next ring is the forest. Wood was also in high demand due to the fact that it was used for heating and cooking. And it had this location because the wood was very heavy and difficult to transport.

  4. The penultimate ring was used for extensive cultivation as bread grains. These are lighter, which makes them easier to transport and cost less money.

  5. And finally, the final outer ring is used for livestock. Animals can be born and raised further from the market because they transport themselves, which means there is no need for fuel, saving the farmer money.

Explanation:  

Von Thunen in his theory mentioned the importance of geographical distribution in agriculture, in which merchant farmers could take advantage of the conditions of the land. For Thunen the distribution and location of the land in an appropriate way would generate the best benefits, for it must organize from the most essential and difficult to transport to the easiest to transport, in this way, for Von Thunen the rings in the markets should be formed.

tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

a. I would consider consider leasing since the profits gained from leasing ($216,978,355.60) is greater compared to the profits if a spot rate is considered ($214,676,191.10) in 4 years.

b. I would consider consider leasing since the value gained from leasing ($123,553,875.20) is greater compared to the value if a spot rate is considered ($120,982,986.80) in 2 years.  

Explanation:

a. Determine best option

<em>Step 1: Determine total revenue per year if they meet the demand.</em>

Total revenue per year=revenue per chair×number of chairs per year

where;

revenue per chair=Rs.20,000

number of chairs per year=4,000 units

replacing;

Total revenue per year=(20,000×4,000)=$80,000,000

<em>Step 2: Determine the net revenue per year for Leasing</em>

Net revenue=total revenue-total cost for leasing

total cost for leasing=cost per chair per square feet×area per chair×number of chairs

where;

cost per chair per square feet=10,000/100=$100

area per chair=10 square feet

number of chairs=4,000

replacing;

total cost for leasing=100×10×4,000=$4,000,000

Net revenue=80,000,000-4,000,000=76,000,000 per year

<em>Step 3: Determine the present value of the net revenue per year for Leasing</em>

Year       Future cash flow            Present cash flow                 Amount

 1            76,000,000               76,000,000/{(1+0.15)^1}         66,086,956.52

 2           76,000,000               76,000,000/{(1+0.15)^2}         57,466,918.71

 3           76,000,000               76,000,000/{(1+0.15)^3}         49,971,233.66

 4           76,000,000               76,000,000/{(1+0.15)^4}         43,453,246.67

Total present value of the future net revenue for leasing=(66,086,956.52+57,466,918.71+49,971,233.66+43,453,246.67)=

$216,978,355.60

<em>Step 3: Determine the present value for the cost for spot Market rate</em>

Since the spot market rate is paid once;

Total cost=(15,000/100)×10×4,000=$6,000,000

Total cost in four years=6,000,000×4=$24,000,000

Present value of spot rate cost=24,000,000/{(1+0.15)^4}=$13,722,077.89

<em>Step 4: Determine the present value of the revenue per year </em>

Year       Future cash flow            Present cash flow                 Amount

 1            80,000,000               80,000,000/{(1+0.15)^1}         69,565,217.39

 2           80,000,000               80,000,000/{(1+0.15)^2}         60,491,493.38

 3           80,000,000               80,000,000/{(1+0.15)^3}         52,601,298.59

 4           80,000,000               80,000,000/{(1+0.15)^4}         45,740,259.65

Present value of Total revenue=69,565,217.39+60,491,493.38+52,601,298.59+45,740,259.65=

$228,398,269

<em>Step 5: Determine the present value of the net revenue per year for sport rate</em>

Net present value=(228,398,269-13,722,077.89)=$214,676,191.10

I would consider consider leasing since the profits gained from leasing ($216,978,355.60) is greater compared to the profits if a spot rate is considered ($214,676,191.10).

b.

<em>Step 6: Consider NPV for 2 years if they Lease</em>

Year       Future cash flow            Present cash flow                 Amount

 1            76,000,000               76,000,000/{(1+0.15)^1}         66,086,956.52

 2           76,000,000               76,000,000/{(1+0.15)^2}         57,466,918.71

Net present value=(66,086,956.52+57,466,918.71)=$123,553,875.20

<em>Step 7: Consider total revenue if the use a spot rate</em>

Year       Future cash flow            Present cash flow                 Amount

 1            80,000,000               80,000,000/{(1+0.15)^1}         69,565,217.39

 2           80,000,000               80,000,000/{(1+0.15)^2}         60,491,493.38

Total revenue=(69,565,217.39+60,491,493.38)=$130,056,710.80

<em>Step 7: Consider cost for 2 years if they use a spot rate</em>

Total cost=6,000,000×2=$12,000,000

Present value=12,000,000/{(1+0.15)^2}=$9,073,724.008

Net present value=130,056,710.80-9,073,724.008=$120,982,986.80

I would consider consider leasing since the value gained from leasing ($123,553,875.20) is greater compared to the value if a spot rate is considered ($120,982,986.80) in 2 years.
