Hines Cosmetic Co. sold beauty preparations nationally to beauty shops at a standard or fixed- price schedule. Some of the shops

were also supplied with a free demonstrator and free advertising materials. The shops that were not supplied with them claimed that giving the free services and materials constituted unlawful price discrimination. Hines replied that there was no price discrimination because it charged everyone the same. What it was giving free was merely a promotional campaign that was not intended to discriminate against those who were not given anything free. Was Hines guilty of unlawful price discrimination? Explain.

Vilas Company is considering a capital investment of $190,900 in additional production facilities. The new machinery is expected
makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

See below.

Explanation:

For payback period we use,

Payback = Initial outlay / Annual cash flow

Payback = 190,900/49,900 = 3.82 years

Annual rate of return is calculated as follows,

Annual rate of return = Average profit / Initial outlay *100%

Annual Rate of return = 11600/190,900) *100% = 6.08%

To calculate the NPV we discount the cash flows.

12% annuity factor for 5 years = 3.6048

PV of cash flows = 49,900*3.6048 = $179,879.52

NPV = 179879.52 - 190,900 = -$11,020.48  (negative)

Hope that helps.

Andre45 [30]

Answer: a. $73,810.88

b. $10,185.18

Explanation:

a. The payments of $11,000 are constant so this can be considered an Annuity.

The cost of the Computer is it's present value which is,

Present Value of Annuity = Annuity Payment * Present Value Interest Factor of Annuity, 11%, 10 periods

= 11,000 * 6.71008 (Payment is made at the end of the year so this is an Ordinary Annuity)

= $73,810.88

b. When an Annuity is instead paid at the beginning of the period it is considered to be an Annuity due.

The formula is the same but for the figures ,

Present Value of Annuity Due = Annuity * Present Value Interest Factor of an Annuity Due, 11% , 10 periods

73,810.88 = Annuity * 7.24689

Annuity = 73,810.88/7.24689

= $10,185.18
