GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

Annual cost per mile of operating a car=$0.409 per mile

Explanation:

Step 1: Calculate the total cost of gas and other associated cost

Total cost of gas=price per gallon×number of gallons consumed

where;

price per gallon=$ 2.79

number of gallons consumed=24

replacing;

Total cost of gas=(24×2.79)=$66.96

Additional costs=Annual depreciation+interest+insurance+license+

repairs/oil+parking

where;

Annual depreciation=$2,500

interest=$650

insurance=$680

license=$65

repairs/oil=$370

parking=$498

replacing;

Additional costs=(2,500+650+680+65+370+498)=$4,763

Total costs=total gas cost+additional cost=(66.96+4,763)=4,829.96

Total annual operating cost=$4,829.96

Annual cost per mile=Total annual operating costs/number of miles driven

Annual cost per mile=4,829.96/11,800

Annual cost per mile=$0.409 per mile

Legal Expenses $13,920 (debit)

Common Stock $2,900 (credit)

Suppose a firm has evaluated four capital budgeting projects and, using one of the time value of money-capital budgeting techniq

Dima020 [189]

Answer:

The answer is: the following three should be used.

net present value (NPV)
traditional payback period (PB)
the modified internal rate of return (MIRR)

Explanation:

First of all, the NPV of the four projects must be positive. Only NPV positive projects should be financed. If the NPV is negative, the project should be tossed away. This is like a golden rule in investment.

Now comes the "if" part. What does the company value more, a short payback period or a higher rate of return.

If the company values more a shorter payback period (usually high tech companies do this due to obsolescence), then they should choose the project with the shortest payback period.

If the company isn't that concerned about payback periods, then it should choose to finance the project with the highest modified rate of return. This means that the most profitable project should be financed.
