Answer:

The answer is: A) expropriation

Explanation:

Expropriation is the seizure of private property by a government entity or government agency for the purpose of public interest. Usually owners that lose property due to expropriations, receive some type of compensation for their loss. It also can refer to private property being taken away by another private entity with the authorization of a government entity or agency. A common example of expropriation is land being taken away for building roads or dams.

In this case the Quality Dragon plant was expropriated by a private entity who was authorized by the government and the owner was received a monetary compensation for his loss.

Paul [167]

Answer:

Jenkins Manufacturing

Joe should produce using the new equipment.

Explanation:

a) Costs incurred using the old equipment:

Variable costs = $45,000 ($50 x 900)

Fixed costs = $40,000

Total costs = $85,000

Operating Loss = $22,000 ($63,000 - 85,000)

b) Costs incurred using the new equipment:

Variable costs = $22,500 ($25 x 900)

Fixed costs = $60,000

Total costs = $82,500

Operating Loss = $19,500 ($63,000 - 82,500)

Production using the new equipment would reduce the operating loss by $2,500.

X-treme Vitamin Company is considering two investments, both of which cost $10,000. The cash flows are as follows:Year Project A
liq [111]

Answer:

A) Project A = 0.83 year

B) NPV of Project B = $14,609.66

C) Answer B

Explanation:

Requirement A

We know,

Payback period = Last year with negative cumulative cash flows + (Absolute value of last year's cumulative cash flow ÷ Cash flow of the following year's negative cumulative cash flow)

Or, Payback period = A + ( B ÷ C)

                             Project A                                       Project B

Year   Cash Flow   Cumulative Cash Flow    Cash Flow  Cumulative Cash Flow

0 (A)   -$10,000      -$10,000 (B)                     -$10,000        -$10,000 (B)

1           $12,000 (C)      2,000                           $10,000(C)                 0

2              8,000         10,000                               6,000             6,000

3              6,000         16,000                              16,000           22,000

Payback period for project A = 0 + ($10,000 ÷ 12,000) = 0 + 0.833 = 0.83 year

Payback period for project B = 0 + ($10,000 ÷ 10,000) = 0 + 1 = 1 year

X-treme Vitamin Company should choose project A because it can return the investment earlier than project B.

Requirement B

We can use excel to find the Net Present Value for both the projects with a cost of capital of 10%.

The following image shows the NPV for project A and B.

From the calculation of NPV, X-treme Vitamin Company should choose project B as that project yields more present cash flows.

Requirement C

A firm should generally have more confidence in answer b because money can produce more logical sense than a year. Yes, it is easy to understand how many years a company will need to get back its cash flow. Still, the present value of cash flows provides a more specific evaluation of how to utilize the initial investment.
