Answer: ARR = Average profit/Initial outlay x 100

               ARR = $19,000/$250,000 x 100

               ARR = 7.60%

The correct answer is C

               

               Depreciation = Cost - Residual value/Estimated useful life

                                       = $250,000 - $20,000/5 years

                                       = $46,000 per annum

               Average profit = Total profit/No of years

                                         = $325,000/5

                                         = $65,000

                                                                       $

              Average profit                           65,000

        Less: Depreciation                           46,000

       Average profit after depreciation   19,000

Explanation: In determining the accounting rate of return of the investment, there is need to calculate depreciation using straight line method. The amount of depreciation would be deducted from the average profit so as to obtain the average profit after depreciation. The average profit would be divided by the initial outlay in order to obtain the accounting rate of return.

3241004551 [841]

Answer:

He should order 681.66 gallons to minimize the cost, but he have a 500 gallon tank he can fill, so he will order 500 gallons every time, to minimize the cost.

Explanation:

According to the given data we have the following:

h = handling cost per unit = $ 9

S = Ordering cost per order = $20.5

He uses 8,500 gallons a month, therefore, the annual demand D= 8,500*12 = 102,000 gallons .

Therefore, the optimal ordering quantity would be= [ (2*D*S) / h ]1/2

                                                                                   =681.66 units

He should order 681.66 gallons to minimize the cost, but he have a 500 gallon tank he can fill, so he will order 500 gallons every time, to minimize the cost.
