Answer:

the present value break-even point in units per yea is 4680 units. the option (d) is correct

Explanation:

Solution

Given that:

The initial cash flow = $754,000

The project life is  = four years

Thus,

Contribution = sales - variable costs

So,

Sales = quantity * the price

Let the Quantity be Y

$230 Y - $102.40 Y

=127.60 Y

Now,

The operating income = Contribution -fixed costs

which is,

127. 60 Y- (Other depreciation or decrease + decrease)

127. 60 Y- ( $333,000 + ($754,000/4))

= 127. 60 Y- ( $333,000 + $188,500)

Thus,

127. 60 Y - $521, 500

Now,

Tax rate at 21% on operating income is =26.796 Y - 109. 515

The profit after tax = operating income - tax

(127. 60 Y - $521, 500) -(26.796 Y - 109. 515)

= 100.804 Y - 411, 985

Additional depreciation = $188, 500

The operating cash inflow per year = 100.804 Y - 411, 985 +  $188, 500

Thus,

The PVAF for 12 years , 4% = 3.037349

PV of operational cash inflow = 306.18 Y - 678, 802.02

However,

For the break even point: the initaila cash flow = The PV of functioning or operational cash inflow

So,

306.18 Y  - 678, 802.02 =$ 754,400

306.18 Y = 1, 432, 802.02

Y = 4680 Units

finlep [7]

Answer:

Commercial bank

By accepting deposits and lending to other customers, commercial banks act as intermediaries between suppliers and users of credit.

Marianna [84]

Answer:

(a) Cost to Score for an employee with $1,100.00 gross pay is $1,175.00.

(b) Cost to Score for an employee with $850.00 gross pay is $925.00.

(c) Total gross semimonthly pay for all six employees is $6,050.

Explanation:

The questions can be answered as follows:

a. Calculate the cost to Score for an employee with $1,100.00 gross pay in the first pay period in January.

This can be calculated as follows:

Cost to Score for an employee with $1,100.00 gross pay = Gross pay + Contribution to retirement fund = $1,100.00 + $75.00 = $1,175.00

b. Calculate the cost to Score for an employee with $850.00 gross pay in the first pay period in January.

This can be calculated as follows:

Cost to Score for an employee with $850.00 gross pay = Gross pay + Contribution to retirement fund = $850.00 + $75.00 = $925.00

c. Calculate the total gross semimonthly pay for all six employees.

This can be calculated as follows:

Cost to Score for 2 employee with $1,100.00 gross pay = $1,175.00 * 2 = $2,350

Cost to Score for 4 employee with $850.00 gross pay = $925.00 * 4 = $3,700

Total gross semimonthly pay for all six employees = Cost to Score for 2 employee with $1,100.00 gross pay + Cost to Score for 4 employee with $850.00 gross pay = $2,350 + $3,700 = $6,050
