Answer:
First option will be recommended.
Explanation:
To determine which option to be taken, we calculate the net present value each option generates. The option generating higher NPV should be recommended.
- Net present value of first option = Lump sum receipt = $150,000.
- Net present value of second option will be found by discounting cash flows at investing rate 12% and calculated as followed:
+ Present value of 20 equal annual payment of $14,000 + Present value of $60,000 paid in 20 years = (14,000/12%) x [ 1 - 1.12^(-20)] + 60,000/1.12^20 = $110,792.
As net present value of the first option is higher than the second option, first option will be recommended.
Answer:
b) -$700.
Explanation:
The economic profit or loss will be:
economic result = revenue - total cost
<u>Where:</u>
fixed cost + variable cost = total cost
400 + 600 = 1,000
revenue = units x selling price per unit
100 units x $3 = $300
economic result = revenue - total cost = 300 - 1,000 = -700
The company is on the optimal level, marginal revenue = marginal cost at 100 units of output.
But, it is not selling at the correct price. It should sale at a higher price.
Answer:
Total present value=$617,523.24
Explanation:
The formula for calculating continuous compounding is given as follows
F=P(e^it)
F=future value
P=present value
i=interest rate
t=time involved i.e 1 year or 2 year
e=Mathematical constant=2.7183
By applying above mentioned formula, the present value of inventory control software by Baron Chemicals shall be calculated as follows:
Present value of year 2 Cash flow= $286,555.76
($350,000/e^10%*2)
Present value of year 1 Cash flow= $180,967.48
($200,000/e^10%*1)
Present value of year 0 Cash flow= $150,000
Total present value=$617,523.24
Answer:
D. $96,000
Explanation:
We will allocate the cost on maintenance by first stablishing a rate per maintenence hour:
As this is direct method we aren''t doing an allocation to other service department we directly allocate against production department A and B
total hours: 480 + 320 = 800
160,000 total cost /800 hours = 200 per hour
Department B hours: 480
allocate to department B: 480 x 200 = 96,000
D - a large airlines work together to set high prices and eliminate
