Answer:

The Relevant Cost for Five Years     $52,000.00

Explanation:

‘Relevant costs’ can be defined as any cost relevant to a decision. A matter is relevant if there is a change in cash flow that is caused by the decision.

The Park Ridge Company's Relevant Old Machine Cost for Five Years is

Disposal value now                      $32,000.00  

Annual cash operating costs      $20,000.00

Relevant Cost for Five Years     $52,000.00

Old Machine

Original cost $200,000 is <em>Sunk Cost</em>

Useful life in years 10 5   - <em>Will be used for the calculation of Depreciation, Therefore is an Irrelevant cost</em>

Current age in years 5 0  - <em>irrelevant year</em>

Book value $100,000 -  <em>are not cash flows and so are not relevant. </em>

Disposal value now $32,000 -  

Disposal value in 5 years 0 <em>is without a cost</em>

A bond with a $1,000 par value sells for $895. The coupon rate is 7%, the bonds mature in 20 years, and coupon interest is paid
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

After tax cost of debt is 5.239%

Explanation:

Given:

Face value = $1,000

Bond price = $895

Coupon payments = 0.035×1,000 = $35 (coupon payment is paid semi-annually so 7% is divided by 2)

Maturity = 20×2 = 40 periods

Using bond price formula:

Bond price = Present value of face value + present value of coupon payments

Use excel function =RATE(nper,pmt,PV,FV) to calculate cost of debt.

substituting the values:

=RATE(40,35,-895,1000)

we get Pre-Tax cost of debt = 4.03% semi- annual

Annual rate is 4.03%×2 = 8.06%

Note: PV is negative as bond price is cash outflow.

After tax cost of debt = 8.06(1 - 0.35)

                                     = 5.239%

kiruha [24]

Answer: Ordinal scale.

Explanation:Ordinal scale is the level of measurement that gives the ranking of data without showing the degree of variation between them. It helps in identifying if object has more or less characteristic when compared to another object but does not tell the exact weight of the characteristic. Data in Ordinal scale is usually given in order of magnitude since there is no standard of measurement of differences. For example 1=most willing to 5=least willing.

Joab wants to travel to Tacoma, Washington to climb Mt. Rainier and is trying to decide if he should drive or fly to the locatio
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

b. $10 per hour.

Explanation:

Joab wants to travel to Tacoma, Washington to climb Mt. Rainier and is trying to decide if he should drive or fly to the location. The flight to Washington would cost $500 and take 7 hours. Also if he flies, he would need to rent a car at an additional total cost of $300 (including gas) and drive an additional 3 hours total between the airport and the mountain. If Joab were to drive his Honda Civic from Tallahassee out to Mt. Rainier, the trip would take 50 hours and cost him $400. Other things constant, Joab would choose the flight plus rental car option if and only if the value of his time is at least $10 per hour.
