Answer: It will take Machine A 6hours

Explanation:

Let Machine A's output = x

Let Machine B's output = y

Therefore, x + y = 1/3..... Eqn1

Then

2x + y = 1/2..... Eqn2

Making y the subject of the formula in eqn 1

y = 1/3 - x

Substitute the value of y into eqn 2

2x + (1/3 - x) = 1/2

2x + 1\3 - x = 1/2

X = 1/2 - 1/3

X= 1/6

Since x represents machine A, therefore it takes Machine A 6hours to produce 1 widget

blsea [12.9K]

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

But before reaching to the final answers, first determine the contribution margin per unit which is

a. Contribution margin per unit =Sales-Variable cost  

= $80 - $43

= $37 per unit

Now

Breakeven = Fixed expenses ÷ Contribution margin

= $340,400 ÷ $37

= 9,200 units

= $80 - $46

= $34 per unit

New Breakeven = Fixed expenses ÷ Contribution margin

= $270,000 ÷ 34

= 7,941 units

Cloud [144]

Answer:

after 9 years:

FV $15,625.2437

in 14 years:

FV $31,223.0270

last, at the nineteenth year:

FV $55,222.1501

Explanation:

We have to solve for the annuity of 1,200 dollar with a yield of 9% at the proposed times:

C \times \frac{(1+r)^{time}-1 }{rate} = FV\\

C 1,200.00

time 9

rate 0.09

1200 \times \frac{(1+0.09)^{9} -1}{0.09} = FV\\

FV $15,625.2437

time = 14

1200 \times \frac{(1+0.09)^{14}-1 }{0.09} = FV\\

FV $31,223.0270

time = 19

1200 \times \frac{(1+0.09)^{19} -1}{0.09} = FV\\

FV $55,222.1501

icang [17]

Answer:

A) NPV= - $428,888.89 B) Company would break Even if g = 5.68%

Explanation:

Hi, we have to bring to present value all the inflows and outflows of cash, this is the formula to use and the math of it.

NPV=-Invesment+\frac{CashFlowYr1}{(return-growth)}

NPV=-1440000+\frac{91000}{(0.12-0.03)} = -428888.89

The question says that "at what constant growth rate would the company just break even..." and well, a NPV=0 is not precisely break even, actually, it means that the company is obtaining exactly what is asking for any investment, but let´s assume that the question was, what should the growth rate be for the company to accept this project?. So we have to solve the first equation for "g", that is:

g=\frac{(Invesment*return-CashFlowYr1)}{Invesment} =\frac{(1440000*0.12-91000)}{1440000} =0.0568

So the constant growth rate has to be at least 5.68% for the company to accept this project (NPV=0)

Best of luck
