An investment project provides cash inflows of $1,275 per year for eight years. a. What is the project payback period if the ini

photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

The correct answer for option (a) is 3.22 years, option (b) is 4.04 years and for option (c) is 0 years.

Explanation:

According to the scenario, the given data are as follows:

Cash inflow = $1,275

Project payback period = Initial cost ÷ Cash inflow

(a). Initial cost = $4,100

So, Project payback period = $4,100 ÷ $1,275

= 3.22 years

(b) Initial cost = $5,150

So, Project payback period = $5,150 ÷ $1,275

= 4.04 years

(c). Initial cost = $11,200

So, Project payback period = $11,200 ÷ $1,275

= 8.78 years

As it is more than the eight years period, it never pays back.

So, 0 years

Today, you have two coins each of which is valued at $100. One coin is expected to appreciate by 5.2 percent annually while the

ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

=$337.43

Explanation:

The value of each of the coins after 50 years is the future value after 50 years at their respective interest rate.

The formula for future value is FV = PV × (1+r)n

For the first coin at 5.2 percent,

Fv = 100 x ( 1 + 5.2/100 ) 50

Fv =100 x (1+ 0.052) 50

Fv = 100 x 12. 61208795

Fv = $1,261. 21

For the second coin at 5.7 percent,

Fv = 100 x (1 + 5.7 /100)50

Fv =100 x (1 + 0.057 )50

Fv = 100 x 15.98

Fv = 1, 598. 64

the difference in value will be

=$1598.64 - $1,261.21

=$337.43

brilliants [131]

Answer:

Not newsworthy.

Explanation:

The news is not worth publishing because this is not something that excites the public or catches their attention.

When you are in public relations and you need to advertise and promote a company and it's products, the idea is to capture the imagination of your target audience.

In this example, the news proposal will rightly be rejected because it does not seem to serve any of these purposes.

For each of the following unrelated situations, calculate the annual amortization expense and prepare a journal entry to record

Montano1993 [528]

Answer:

(a) Debit Amortization expense - Patents for $43,750; and Credit Patents for $43,750.

(b) Debit Amortization expense - Patents for $5,230; and Credit Patents for $5,230.

(c) Debit Amortization expense - Franchise for $14,000; and Credit Franchises for $14,000.

Explanation:

(a) A patent with a 10-year remaining legal life was purchased for $350,000. The patent will be commercially exploitable for another eight years.

Annual amortization expenses = Purchase cost of the patent / Number of commercially exploitable years = $350,000 / 8 = $43,750

Therefore, the journal entries will look as follows:

General Journal

<u>Description Debit ($) Credit ($) </u>

Amortization expense - Patents 43,750

Patents 43,750

<u><em>(To record patent amortization.) </em></u>

(b) A patent was acquired on a device designed by a production worker. Although the cost of the patent to date consisted of $52,300 in legal fees for handling the patent application, the patent should be commercially valuable during its entire remaining legal life of 10 years and is currently worth $400,000.

Annual amortization expenses = Legal fees / Remaining legal life = $52,300 / 10 = $5,230

Therefore, the journal entries will look as follows:

General Journal

<u>Description Debit ($) Credit ($) </u>

Amortization expense - Patents 5,230

Patents 5,230

<u><em>(To record patent amortization.) </em></u>

(c) A franchise granting exclusive distribution rights for a new solar water heater within a three-state area for five years was obtained at a cost of $70,000. Satisfactory sales performance over the five years permits renewal of the franchise for another three years (at an additional cost determined at renewal).

Annual amortization expenses = Cost of acquiring the franchise / Number of years acquired = $70,000 / 5 = $14,000

Therefore, the journal entries will look as follows:

General Journal

<u>Description Debit ($) Credit ($) </u>

Amortization expense - franchise 14,000

franchise 14,000

<u><em>(To record franchise amortization.) </em></u>
