Since there's no available options,

There are basically two reasons :
- To make it look more profitable for the debtor
- The bank offer a lower initial rate to reduce the risk of Bad Debt Expense.

When bank offer a loan, there are always a risk of the debtor not able to return the loan. That's why bank lower the initial rate at first. After a set period of time, when the debtor became more financially stable, that's when the interest started to increase so the bank could gain some profit

Answer: The answer is price skimming.

Answer:

Company A

a. Differential Analysis dated May 29

                                              Alternative 1           Alternative 2

Opportunity cost                       $250,000            $550,000

Variable production costs          580,000                192,000

Total cost                                  $830,000             $742,000

b. Sunk cost in this situation is: $225,000 ($400,000 - $175,000) cost of the old machine.

Explanation:

Company A's relevant cost for the old machine is the opportunity cost that it will lose if it continues with Alternative 1 or continued use of the old machine and the additional cost for the new machine for Alternative 2.  Also relevant is the variable production costs that would be incurred if the old or new machine is used.

Company A's sunk cost is the cost of the old machine minus accumulated depreciation.  Sunk cost is not relevant for decision making under differential analysis.

Company A's differential analysis is a managerial tool that is used to differentiate one decision alternative from another.  In this analysis, only relevant costs are considered.  A relevant cost in this case is cost that its inclusion or elimination makes a difference in the decision outcome.
