The management of Stanforth Corporation is investigating automating a process. Old equipment, with a current salvage value of $2

4,000, would be replaced by a new machine. The new machine would be purchased for $468,000 and would have a 6 year useful life and no salvage value. By automating the process, the company would save $161,000 per year in cash operating costs. The simple rate of return on the investment is closest to__________.

Answer:

The simple rate of return on investment is 17.73%

Explanation:

The simple interest rate of return on the investment can be calculated by the formula given thus:

Simple rate of return=net income/investment

The net income =savings in operating costs less depreciation

Savings in operating costs =$161000

depreciation=cost -salvage value/number of years

Depreciation=468000-0/6=$78000

Net income=$161000-$78000

Net income=$83000

Simple rate of return =83000/468000

                                    =17.73%

Answer:

Simple rate of return = 17.7%

Explanation:

Simple rate of return = incremental operating income ÷ initial investment

Depreciation = $468,000 ÷ 6years = $78,000

incremental operating income = $161,000-$78,000 =$83,000

Simple rate of return = $83,000÷$468,000=17.7%

I am trying to understand the Opportunity cost. Can anyone help me please? I can't seem to get Economics, I really need help. Yo
sesenic [268]
<span>Basically "Opportunity cost" is what you're going to lose (or have a potential to lose) if you chose a different action than what you're presented with. In the example, you're working for $15 an hour, but if you decide instead to skip a pratrice to go to the fair you're losing out of the $15 an hour you'll be paid and have to pay $9 to go to the fair. All total, you're opportunity costs for that will be $24 (fifteen you would have made plus the nine dollar fee.) This is also assuming, of course, they don't fire/dock you for just skipping work.</span>

If we were able to invest a Gradient = $100 at the end of each year for 7 years at 6% interest (i.e., So at the end of year 1, $
zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

We can withdraw an equivalent annuity of  $ 293.658 each year.

Explanation:

We build a scheduled table to know the future value of the gradient investment

Time    Beg        Gradient          Total             Rate Ending

1  $100.00   $100.00  $100.00           0.060   $106.00

2  $106.00   $100.00   $206.00   0.060   $218.36

3  $218.36   $200.00   $418.36   0.060   $443.46

4  $443.46   $300.00   $743.46   0.060   $788.07

5  $788.07   $400.00   $1,188.07   0.060   $1,259.36

6  $1,259.36   $500.00   $1,759.36   0.060   $1,864.92

7  $1,864.92   $600.00   $2,464.92   0.060   $2,612.81

Then, we solve for the equivalent annuity-due:

PV \div \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate}(1+rate) = C\\

PV 2,613

time 7

rate 0.06

2612.81 \div \frac{1-(1+0.06)^{-7} }{0.06}(1+0.06) = C\\

C  $ 293.658

Itis annuity due as we will going to retire cash in a 6 year period for  seven times. (at each year-end during 6 years thus, annuity-due
