Explanation:
This is a very general question however I’ll try to answer it to the best of my knowledge.
If I use my own assumptions then these will be the Projections:
Selling Price $79.99 Selling Price $69.99
Cost of Sales/unit $40.00 Cost of Sales/unit $40.00
Expenses/unit $15.00 Expenses/unit $15.00
Demand @ $79.99 1000 Demand @ $69.99 1200
Sales $79,990.00 Sales $83,988.00
Cost of Sales $40,000.00 Cost of Sales $48,000.00
Expenses $15,000.00 Expenses $18,000.00
Profit $24,990.00 Profit $17,988.00
The final decision however relies on the Price Elasticity of the Product. If the Product is Price elastic then lowering the Price will lead to a significant rise in Demand. However if the Product is Price inelastic then lowering the Price will not lead to a significant rise in Demand and thus profit margins will be lowered. If the Product is Price inelastic then it is better to increase prices in order to gain more profits. In the case of Unit Elasticity the change in Demand will be at the same proportion as price change so it won’t be of any use to change the Price.

Answer:
$26,036.74
Explanation:
Tom is able to pay $390 per month for 7 years. The interest rate is 6.8 %. Tom will pay an equivalent of the present value of a $390 annuity for & years 6.8 per cent
The applicable formula is
PV = P × 1 − (1+r)−n
r
Where PV is the present value
P is 390
r is 6.8% per year or 0.005666
n is 7 year or 84 months
PV = $390 x 1-(1+0.005666)84
0.00566
PV = $390 x 1- 0. 622133410)
0.00566
PV =390 x (0.37786659/0.00566)
PV = $390 x 66.760
PV = $26,036.74
Answer:
<u>Dingo should reject this project </u>
<u />
Explanation:
sales - operating expenses = controllable margin
controllable margin/operating asset = return on assets
100,000 sales - 86,000 expenses = 14,000
14,000/200,000 = 0.07 = 7%
This project yield 7% which is lower than Ding required rate of return of 9%
Dingo should reject this project of finance it through a lower cost of capital.
