Answer:

The depreciation expense recorded in 2017 will be $930

Explanation:

Cost of the generator = $6,300

Initial useful life = 5 years

initial salvage value = $600

Revised useful life = 6 years

Revised  salvage value = $300

Now,

Initial Annual depreciation = [ Cost - Initial salvage value ] ÷ Initial useful life

= [ $6,300 - $600 ] ÷ 5

= $1,140

Therefore,

accumulated depreciation till the end of 2016

= 2 × $1,140

= $2,280

Therefore,

Book value for the year 2017

= Cost - accumulated depreciation till the end of 2016

= $6,300 - $2,280

= $4,020

Therefore,

The revised annual depreciation

= [ Book value for 2017 - Revised salvage value ] ÷ Remaining useful life

= [ $4,020 - $300 ] ÷ (6 - 2)

= $930

Hence,

the depreciation expense recorded in 2017 will be $930

KengaRu [80]

Answer:

initial investment $100,000

useful life 15 years

cash flow per year = -$2,000 + $12,000 = $10,000

discount rate 5%

discounted cash flow:

1                $10,000/1.05 = $9,524

2               $10,000/1.05² = $9,070

3               $10,000/1.05³ = $8,638

4               $10,000/1.05⁴ = $8,227

5               $10,000/1.05⁵ = $7,835

6               $10,000/1.05⁶ = $7,462

7               $10,000/1.05⁷ = $7,101

8               $10,000/1.05⁸ = $6,768

9               $10,000/1.05⁹ = $6,446

10              $10,000/1.05¹⁰ = $6,139

11               $10,000/1.05¹¹ = $5,847

12              $10,000/1.05¹² = $5,568

13              $10,000/1.05¹³ = $5,303

14              $10,000/1.05¹⁴ = $5,051

15              $10,000/1.05¹⁵ = $4,810

A) discounted pay back period = 14.2 years

B) if the decision rule is a discounted payback period of 3 years, then the project should be rejected

C) the decision rule should be the NPV, which is actually positive since the DPBP is less than 15 years. Only companies that fear premature obsolescence should base their decision on the pay back period. Since this is an electronics company, it is sound to use the pay back period as a decision parameter besides the NPV.

Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

$1,059,050

Explanation:

The computation of the anticipated level of profits for the expected sales volumes is shown below:

Expected sales             209,000                      305,000

Particulars                     Chicken                          Fish

Sales                              $815,100                       $1,525,000

Less:

Variable cost                -$407,550                     -$762,500

Contribution margin      $407,550                      $762,500

Now the profit would be

= Total contribution margin - total fixed cost

= $407,550 + $762,500 - $111,000

= $1,059,050

The sales are variable cost are come by multiplying the units with its price per taco.
