Final Finishing is considering three mutually exclusive alternatives for a new polisher. Each alternative has an expected life o
valkas [14]

Answer:

1. 18.09%

2. 12%

3. 20.02%  

Explanation:

As the MARR is 15%, we will accept projects which have IRR more than 15%. As the projects are mutually exclusive, we will choose only one project.

An IRR (Internal Rate of Return) is the rate which makes the NPV (Net Present Value) = ZERO.

The formula to calculate IRR is: 0 = P0 + P1/(1+IRR) + P2/(1+IRR)2 + P3/(1+IRR)3 + . . . +Pn/(1+IRR)n where P0 = Initial cash outflow

And P1, . . . Pn equals the cash inflows in periods 1, 2, . . . n, respectively.      

1) IRR of project 1:

0 = -$20,000 + $4,465/(1+IRR)1 + $4,465/(1+IRR)2 + $4,465/(1+IRR)3 + . . . + $4,465/(1+IRR)10

Solving for IRR we have = 18.09%

2) IRR of project 2:

0 = -$10,000 + $1,770/(1+IRR)1 + $1,770/(1+IRR)2 + $1,770/(1+IRR)3 + . . . + $1,770/(1+IRR)10

Solving for IRR we have = 12%

3) IRR of project 3:

0 = -$15,000 + $3,580/(1+IRR)1 + $3,580/(1+IRR)2 + $3,580/(1+IRR)3 + . . . + $3,580/(1+IRR)10

Solving for IRR we have = 20.02%

We will choose project 3 as it has the highest IRR.

Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

Variable cost per unit= $0.5

Explanation:

<u>To calculate the variable and fixed costs under the high-low method, we need to use the following formulas:</u>

Variable cost per unit= (Highest activity cost - Lowest activity cost)/ (Highest activity units - Lowest activity units)

Variable cost per unit= (5,420 - 2,925) / (8,870 - 3,880)

Variable cost per unit= $0.5

Fixed costs= Highest activity cost - (Variable cost per unit * HAU)

Fixed costs= 5,420 - (0.5*8,870)

Fixed costs= $985

Fixed costs= LAC - (Variable cost per unit* LAU)

Fixed costs= 2,925 - (0.5*3,880)

Fixed costs= $985
