Answer:

option (b) $69,768

Explanation:

Data provided in question:

Estimated manufacturing overhead = $73,440

Estimated machine-hours = 1,800

Actual manufacturing overhead = $68,700

Actual machine-hours = 1,710

now,

The predetermined overhead rate = \frac{\textup{Estimated manufacturing overhead}}{\textup{Estimated machine-hours}}

or

The predetermined overhead rate = \frac{\textup{73,440}}{\textup{1,800}}

or

The predetermined overhead rate = $40.8 per hour

Therefore,

The applied manufacturing overhead for the year

=  Actual machine-hours × predetermined overhead rate

= 1,710 × $40.8

= $69,768

Hence,

the correct answer is option (b) $69,768

The Pinkerton Publishing Company is considering two mutually exclusive expansion plans. Plan A calls for the expenditure of $56
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

NPV of Plan A: $15,669,953.

NPV of Plan B: $18.260,647.

For the Plan A, the IRR is r=0.15.

For the Plan B, the IRR is r=0.32.

Explanation:

We have two expansion plans:

Plan A:

- Expenditure: -$56 million

- Cash flow: $9 million/year

- Duration: 20 years

Plan B:

- Expenditure: -$12 million

- Cash flow: $3.8 million/year

- Duration: 20 years

The NPV of plan A can be expressed as:

NPV_A=-I_0+\sum_{k=1}^{20} (CF_k)(1+i)^{-k}\\\\NPV_A=-I_0+(CF)[\frac{1-(1+i)^{-20}}{i}] \\\\NPV_A=-56+9*[\frac{1-(1.11)^{-20}}{0.11}]=-56+9*\frac{0.876}{0.11}=-56+9*7.963328117 \\\\NPV_A=-56+71.66995306= 15.669953

NPV of Plan A: $15,669,953.

The NPV of plan B can be expressed as:

NPV_B=-I_0+\sum_{k=1}^{20} (CF_k)(1+i)^{-k}\\\\NPV_B=-I_0+(CF)[\frac{1-(1+i)^{-20}}{i}] \\\\NPV_B=-12+3.8*[\frac{1-(1.11)^{-20}}{0.11}]=-12+3.8*\frac{0.876}{0.11}=-12+3.8*7.963328117\\\\NPV_B=-12+30.26064685=18.260647

NPV of Plan B: $18.260,647.

To calculate the IRR, we have to clear the discount rate for NPV=0. We can not solve this analitically, but we can do it by iteration (guessing) or by graphing different NPV, with the discount rate as the independent variable.

For the Plan A, the IRR is r=0.15.

For the Plan B, the IRR is r=0.32.
