Question

A new machine, with a 4-year life, has an initial cost of $1,200 and annual costs of $380. The equivalent annual cost of this machine is best described as the"

Assuming an interest rate of 10%

Note the interest rate was added by the tutor

Answer:

Equivalent Annual cost =  $758.56

Explanation:

The equivalent annual cost is the present value of cost of the new machine divided by the annuity factor.

PV of annuity cost = A× 1- (1+r)^(-n)/r

                          A- 380, r- 10% n- 4

PV of annual cost = 380 × (1- 1.1^(-4))/0.1=1,204.55

PV of total cost = 1,204.55 + 1,200 = 2,404.55

Equivalent annual cost = PV of cost /Annuity factor

Annuity factor =(1- 1.1^(-4))/0.1 = 3.1699

Equivalent Annual cost = 2,404.55 / 3.1699 = $758.5649

Equivalent Annual cost =  $758.56

An agreement between Jim and his 18-year-old daughter, Betty, provides that he will give her $25,000 if she does not marry until
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

No, Jim is not correct.

Explanation:

Betty will win this case.

Generally, the law encourages marriage as its policy. If there is any contract that prevent or restrict marriage in whatever way, such contract would be considered null and void because it is against the public policy.

Despite the above, contracts will be generally considered valid when they place reasonable restrictions on marriage. In this question, the restriction placed on Betty that she should get married until after her 22nd birthday is reasonable and has to be considered to be valid. Based on this, Betty has to be paid the $25,000 as laid down in the binding contract between the two parties.

Therefore, Jim is not correct.
