Answer:
The correct answer is (A)
Explanation:
Normally, goods which close substitutes tend to have more elastic demand as it is easier to switch from one brand to another because they are close substitutes. For example, if the price of Pepsi increases the consumers will easily shift towards Coca-Cola. So, close substitutes are price sensitive and they have high elastic demand compared to other goods.
Answer:
Dr Right of use asset 59,007.60
Cr Lease liability 59,007.60
Explanation:
Variable lease payments are generally not included as right of use asset or lease liability. Even though a 60% possibility exists that an additional $5,000 will be paid, they are not based on an index and are not disguised payments (only two exceptions to this rule).
Annual lease payments = $12,000
PV annuity factor, 6%, 6 periods = 4.9173
PV of lease payments = $12,000 x 4.9173 = $59,007.60
Answer:
Project A
Years Cashflows Discount factor Present values
0 250,000 1 -250,000
1-10 45,100 6.144 277,094.40
Sum of all present value=NPV=27,094.40
IRR (by using trial and error method) = 12.4696%
Note: Discount factor for the year 1-10 is calculated by using annuity formula i.e [1-(1+10%)]/10% = 6.144
Project B
Years Cashflows Discount factor Present values
0 (350,000) 1 (350,000)
1 72,500 0.91 65,975
2 65,500 0.83 54,365
3 73,800 0.75 55,350
4 71,500 0.68 48,620
5 69,800 0.62 43,276
6 75,500 0.56 42,280
7 31,000 0.51 15,810
8 47,500 0.47 22,325
9 55,500 0.42 23,310
10 29,200 0.38 11,096
Sum of all present values=NPV=32,407
IRR(by using trial and error method=12.4186%
On the basis of NPV project B is better because it gives higher NPV than project A. Whereas, Project A is better than project B on the basis of IRR because project A has slightly higher IRR than project B.
b)The conflict between both the investment appraisal technique is likely due to different cash flow patterns of both the project. In such situation decision should be based on NPV because this is an absolute measure
Duration of the project. from start to end
