Explanation:
here is an explanation and solution to your question
For Euphoria:
The opportunity cost of producing a unit of rye in terms of jeans =20/5 = 4
for contente:
The opportunity cost of producing a unit of rye in terms of jeans = 16/8 = 2
opportunity cost of producing 1 unit of jean in terms of unit of rye:
for euphoria = 5/20 = 1/4
for contente = 8/16 = 1/2
1.
Euphoria's opportunity cost of producing a a bushel of rye is 4 pairs of jeans.
contentes opportunity cost of producing a bushel of rye is 2 pairs of jeans.
2.
contente has comparative advantage in producing rye
euphoria has comparative advantage in jeans production
3
contente produces 8 bushels of rye so with 4 million hours of labor = 8x4 = 32 million bushels in a week.
euphoria 20 pairs of jean in a week, using 4 million hours of labor. 20x4 = 80 pairs of jean a week
Answer:
Machine B has a higher NPV therefore should be produced
Explanation:
The machine with the higher Net Present Value (NPV) should be produced .
NPV of Machine A
PV of cash flow
PV of annual profit = A × (1- (1+r)^*(-n)/r
A- 92,000, n- 11, r- 12%
PV = 92,000 × (1- (1.12^(-11)/0.12 = 546268.32
PV of salvage value = 13,000× 1.12^(-11)= 3737.189
NPV = 546268.320 + 3737.189 -250,000 = $300,005.50
NPV of Machine B
A- 103,00, n- 19, r- 12%
PV = 103,000 × (1- (1.12^(-19)/0.12= 758675.0165
Pv of salvage value = 26000× 1.12^(-19)= 3018.776199
NPV =758675.0165 + 3018.77 -460,000 = $301,693.79
Machine B has a higher NPV , therefore should be produced.
Hi!
The answer to your question should be B. Pays the difference of the current value to the amount you owe.
