Answer:

The correct answer is option B.

Explanation:

The statement "There is no free lunch" means that no product is made for free. Production of any good or service requires resources. These resources are scarce and have alternative uses. So in order to produce any goods or services limited resources are used and its alternative uses are sacrificed.

Assume a $170,000 investment and the following cash flows for two products: Year Product X Product Y 1 $ 40,000 $ 60,000 2 60,00
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

a. Product X = 3.50 years

   Product Y = 3.25 years

b. Product Y

Explanation:

The cash flows for the two products as well as the balance at the end of each year is given as follows:

Initial\ balance = -170,000\\\\\begin{array}{ccccc}Year&Product\ X&Product\ Y& Balance\ X& Balance\ Y\\1&40,000&60,000&-130,000&-110,000\\2&60,000&70,000&-70,000&-40,000\\3&50,000&30,000&-20,000&-10,000\\4&40,000&40,000&20,000&20,000\end{array}

For both products, the payback period is reached between the third and fourth year.

Product X:

Payback = 3+\frac{20,000}{40,000} = 3.50\ years

Product Y:

Payback = 3+\frac{10,000}{40,000} = 3.25\ years

Under the payback method, the alternative that presents the shortest payback period should be selected. Therefore, Product Y should be selected.

The nature of the tax system means that there is usually a trade-off between ___ and ___.
IgorC [24]

Answer:

<u>equity and efficiency</u>

Explanation:

Under the tax system there is no tax on losses. And also the losses can be carried forward and set off to profits in future.

When profits are earned the taxes are paid. After that the remaining profit is either distributed to equity or retained for future purposes.

The more efficiently the company works, higher will be the profit and higher will be the taxes.

As profit is for equity, and from that share the amount is given to tax authorities, which is some part of income, share of equity to tax.

Though it does not provide for right in company, but it is legal to pay the tax.

That is the price you pay for increasing or decreasing efficiency, in the form of income available for equity.
