Answer:
Instructions are listed below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Production of 12-ounce cans has a standard unit quantity of 4.4 ounces of aluminum per can. During April, 304,000 cans were produced using 1,243,000 ounces of aluminum. The actual cost of aluminum was $0.17 per ounce and the standard price was $0.07 per ounce.
Direct material price variance= (standard price - actual price)*actual quantity
Direct material price variance= ( 0.07 - 0.17)*1,243,000= $124,300 unfavorable
Direct material quantity variance= (standard quantity - actual quantity)*standard price
Direct material quantity variance= (1,337,600 - 1,243,000)*0.07= $6,622 favorable
Answer:
A) $560 million
Explanation:
First lets calculate the NPV of the cash stream by this investment,
PV Cash stream = Cash flow/ (r-g), where r = avg cost of capital and g = growth of the cash stream.
PV = 50 / (0.09 - 0.04) = $1000 million
We assume that external finance issuance costs are payable as a part of initial outlay of the project and so,
Total initial outlay = 420 + 20 = $440 million
NPV of the project then,
NPV = 1000 - 440 = $560 million
Hope that helps.
