The following costs and useful life data are associated with two new machines being considered at Arun Tech Inc.
Sidana [21]

Answer:

Machine B has a higher NPV therefore should be produced

Explanation:

The machine with the higher Net Present Value (NPV) should be produced .

NPV of Machine A

PV of cash flow

PV of annual profit = A × (1- (1+r)^*(-n)/r

A- 92,000, n- 11, r- 12%

PV = 92,000 × (1- (1.12^(-11)/0.12 = 546268.32

PV of salvage value = 13,000× 1.12^(-11)= 3737.189

NPV =  546268.320 + 3737.189  -250,000 = $300,005.50

NPV of Machine B

A- 103,00, n- 19, r- 12%

PV = 103,000 × (1- (1.12^(-19)/0.12= 758675.0165

Pv of salvage value = 26000× 1.12^(-19)= 3018.776199

NPV =758675.0165  + 3018.77  -460,000 = $301,693.79

Machine B has a higher NPV , therefore should be produced.

In the balance sheet at the end of its first year of operations, Dinty Inc. reported an allowance for uncollectible accounts of
Vlada [557]

Answer:

The correct option is 2. $50,200

Explanation:

Please see below the required journals for the transactions that occurred:

Debit Allowance for doubtful accounts             $31,800

Credit Accounts receivable                                $31,800

(<em>To record write-off of accounts receivable)</em>

Debit Accounts receivable                           $2,340,000

Credit Sales revenue                                    $2,340,000

<em>(To record credit sales during the year)</em>

Debit Cash                                                      $1,910,000

Credit Accounts receivable                           $1,910,000

<em>(To record collection on account)</em>

  • The effect of the above journals on allowance for doubtful account is a reduction. Since Dinty already assessed its allowance for doubtful account to be $82,000, bad debt expense required will be $50,200 ($82,000 - $31,800).
  • The balance in accounts receivable will be $2,340,000 - $1,910,000 - $31,800 = $398,200.

Assume that a pure monopolist and a purely competitive firm have the same unit costs. In this case, determine what is true with
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

a. 1, 5 and 7

b. Resources will be allocated inefficiently

c. Differing sizes and capacities

d. Benefits due to economies of scale

e. Reduce prices and improve resource allocation.

Explanation:

The correct combination is 1, 5 and 7. The price of a pure monopoly firm is much higher than that of purely competitive firm because the later is a price taker while the former is a price fixer. Because of this, output of monopoly is lower while the profit margin is higher than that of competitive firm.

Assuming that a pure monopolist and a purely competitive firm have the same unit costs. In the case of a pure monopolist, resources will be allocated inefficiently because the monopolist does not produce at the point of minimum Average Total Cost and does not equate price and Marginal cost.

Even though both monopolists and competitive firms follow the MC = MR rule in maximizing profits, there are differences in the economic outcomes because pure competitors lack capacity and are smaller in size while the monopolist has the capacity to expand inorder to maximize profits.

The costs of a purely competitive firm and a monopoly may be different because the monopolist is capable of taking advantage of cost reduction arising from economics of scale. Pure competitors does not experience economies of scale due to their small sizes.

If a monopoly can experience economies of scale, it can reduce prices beyond that of the pure competitor thereby ensuring a more efficient resource allocation.
