Answer:

The correct answer is letter "E": diminishing marginal utility.

Explanation:

The Law of Diminishing Marginal Utility states that the more you use a good or service, the less pleased you will be with each use or use that follows. The law of diminishing utility is a key principle in assessing consumer preferences. This assumes consumers are rational and spend money in such a way as to maximize their contentment with each subsequent unit without impacting their overall enjoyment negatively.

1. A new furnace for your small factory will cost $27,000 to install and will require ongoing maintenance expenditures of $1,500
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

payback 3.29 years

NPV 87,158.55

Explanation:

PO 27,000

<u>Cash flow saving Y1 </u>

2400 x 3.5 = 8,400

expenditures (1,500)

net savings   6,900

<u>Cash flow saving Y2 </u>

The price will increase 0.5

6,900 + 2,400 x 0.5 = 8,100

<u>Cash flow saving Y3 to Y20</u>

The price will increase 0.5

8,100 + 2,400 x 0.5 = 9,300

We have an annuity of 18 years for 9,300 cash

And then we have a cash flow of 6,900

and another of 8,100

C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\

C = 9,300

r = 8%

time = 18

9,300 \times \frac{1-(1+0.08)^{-18} }{0.08} = PV\\

PV =  87,158.55

Now this values are years into the future, so we need to bring them to present day.

\frac{Principal}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV

year 1 principal 6,900

6,900/1.08 = 6,388.89

year 2 principal 8,100

\frac{8,100}{(1 + 0.08)^{2} } = PV

PV= 5,915.64

year 3 annuity 87,158.55

\frac{87,158.55}{(1 + 0.08)^{3} } = PV

PV= 69,189.27

cash flow - investment = net present value

69,189.27 + 5,915.64 + 6,388.89 - 27,000 = 54,493.8

The payback will be the time perdion when the project recovers it initial cost:

we first add the income from the irregular years and subtract from the investment

6,900 + 8,100 = 15,000

27,000 - 15,000 = 12,000

then we use the general formula investment/cash flow per year

12,000/9,300 = 1.29

the project need the first two years and then 1.29 years

2 + 1.29 = 3.29 years
