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

GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

The syndicate member earns $20.

Explanation:

When bonds are sold directly to the public, the syndicate member earns the total takedown. Total takedown refers to the selling concession plus the additional takedown $22.00 + $20.00 = $42.00.

In this question, it indicated that a selling group was used to find customers. This means that the syndicate member will not earn the total takedown because he has given up his selling concession of $22.00 to the selling group member, leaving the syndicate member to earn only the additional takedown of $20.

Accumulated depreciation(old)          9,000

Asset (old)                                                                       28,000

frosja888 [35]

Scarcity is the condition wherein the mean to and end (that is resources required to achieve set goals) are limited in relation to the goals that need to be achieved.

Because of the above, one has to carefully make their choice while allocating the resources accordingly.

<h3>What is opportunity Cost?</h3>

When a choice is made between two competing alternatives, it means that one alternative has to be foregone. The alternative foregone is called the Opportunity Cost.

<h3>What is a rationing device?</h3>

A rationing device is a system that determines who receives what of limited commodities and resources.
