Answer:

The amount that will be received today is $2518857.85

Explanation:

To calculate the amount that will be received today, we need to discount the amount that will be received three years from now for a period of 3 years using the given discount rate. As there is only a single cash flow, we will use the formula for present value of principal.

The present value of principal is,

Present value = Cash flow / (1+d)^t

Where,

  • Cash flow is the amount for which we have to found the present value
  • d is the discount rate
  • t is the time in terms of number of periods
  • Here the t is in years and the number of periods is 3 years

Present value = 3000000 / (1+0.06)^3

Present value = 2518857.849 rounded off to $2518857.85

2. Assume the cost object is the Manufacturing Department and that its total output is 15,500 units. a. How much total manufactu
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

There are three stages of assignment of costs to each product and these are as under:

  1. Allocation
  2. Apportionment
  3. Absorption / Activity Based costing

So this question relates to stage one. Suppose the following situation:

There are 2 departments and they have following expenses

Department A has a supervisor whose annual salary is $30000

Department B has a worker whose annual salary is $22000

Department A & B have shared a rented property for there operations.

Department A and B also shares electricity bills and annual electricity charges stand almost $80,000

Now the directly attributable / traceable cost to Department A are those that are hundred percent related to Department A. In this example, we saw that supervisor salary is the only cost that is hundred percent related to Department A. Likewise Worker's salary is also relateable to Department B. Whereas the rental cost and electricity bills are not directly attributable to these departments. So this means the manufacturing costs that are directly traceable are those that hundred percent relates to the manufacturing departments.

Net present value: Select one: is the best method of analyzing mutually exclusive projects. is less useful than the internal rat
Leto [7]

Answer:

Is the best method of analyzing mutually exclusive projects.

Explanation:

Net present value is equal to the present value of all the future cash flows of a project, less the initial outlay of project.

Net present value analysis simply concluded about a project to be worth doing when it finds the present value of future cash flows greater than the initial investment and vice versa.

We just have to see which is higher, the present value of future cash flows or the initial investment.

It is assumed that an investment with a positive NPV will be profitable, and an investment with a negative NPV will result in a net loss.
