Digiron [165]

Answer:

Laptop = $3250

Desktop = $2900

Explanation:

Total finance charge = $398

Laptop cost = 350 + x

Desktop = X

Workings

Finance cost = (7% *X ) + (6% * 350+x ) = 398

0,07 X + 0.06 X + 21 = 398

0.13 X + 21 = 398

0.13 X = 398 -21

0.13 X = 377

Therefore ,X = 377/0.13

=2900

Cost of Desktop = 2900

Cost of Laptop =2900+350 =3,250

During 2016, Ayayai Corporation spent $144,000 in research and development costs. As a result, a new product called the New Age

tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

Please see below the journal entries of Ayayai Corporation for the year ending 2016 and 2017 respectively.

Explanation:

Ayayai Corporation

Journal Entries

For the Year ending 2016

Debit: Research & Development Expense $144,000

Credit: Cash $144,000

To record research and development expense.

Debit: Patent $17,400

Credit: Cash $17,400

To record legal cost relating to Patent.

Debit: Amortization Expense $435

Credit: Patent $435

To record amortization expense for the pro rated year.

Ayayai Corporation

Journal Entries

For the Year ending 2017

Debit: Amortization Expense $1,740

Credit: Patent $1,740

To record amortization expense for year.

AMORTIZATION EXPENSE CALCULATION:

Legal Cost = $17,400

Useful Life = 10 Years

Amortization Expense = Legal Cost / Useful Life

Amortization Expense = $17,400 / 10

Amortization Expense = $1,740 per year

But since in 2016 the patent was obtained on October 1, so Ayayai Corporation will have to pro rate the Amortization Expense in 2016 as below:

Amortization Expense = Annual Amortization Expense x No. of months / Total no. of months

Since patent was obtained in October so the No. of months is '3'

Amortization Expense = $1,740 x 3 / 12

Amortization Expense = $435

d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

Explanation:

Internal rate of return is the discount rate that equates the after tax cash flows from an investment to the amount invested

IRR can be calculated with a financial calculator

Flying Car

Cash flow in year 0 = -$200,000

Cash flow in year 1 = 50,000

Cash flow in year 2 = 50,000

Cash flow in year 3 =80,000

Cash flow in year 4 =100,000

IRR = 13%

To find the IRR using a financial calculator:

1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

2. After inputting all the cash flows, press the IRR button and then press the compute button.

a) Determine a minimum inventory production plan (i.e., one that allows arbitrary hiring and firing). b) Determine the productio

PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

Hello your question is incomplete attached below is the complete question

answer:

A) 32 units ( number of units per month per worker )

B) number of workers required = 975 / 32 ≈ 31

c) mean of the two values = 138 + 41 ) / 2 = $89.50

Explanation:

A) Determine a minimum inventory production plan ( i.e. one that allows arbitrary hiring and firing )

The number of units per month per worker = 32 units

To have a minimum/least inventory; production plan = demand by hiring or firing

of employees

attached below is the table

B) determine the production plan that meets demand but does not hire or fire workers during the six-month period

To determine this production plan we have to find the per month production = (Total demand - beginning inventory ) / 6

= ( 6350 - 500 ) / 6 = 975 units produced

number of workers required = 975 / 32 ≈ 31

C) Calculate The cost of subcontracting needed to beat the cheaper of the two options above

regular cost = 8 * 5 = $40

we will keep 30 workers in order to determine how much subcontracting is needed and the maximum and minimum value of each unit is kept hence the overall cost < $253900.

if subcontracting cost = $138 then total cost = $253820

If subcontracting cost = $41 then total cost = $245090.

Therefore mean of the two values = 138 + 41 ) / 2 = $89.50

D) subcontracting cost of $50 formulating a LP and solve to optimality for the constraints of this problem

Z <= (Y+1)*7680 , X + 32Y >= 5850
