Answer:

Answer : Average Marginal Cost, Marginal Cost = $2

The total cost per hour of the janitorial service firm = $32

Explanation:

The janitorial firm only uses labour as an input to clean offices and there are no fixed costs. This implies that the total cost is only the variable cost.

Each worker can clean 4 offices in an hour, therefore the output of each labour is 4units per office cleaned. The price/wages paid to each worker isb $8 per hour.

The total cost per hour of the janitorial service firm is $8x4 = $32 (wxq)

Now to clean one more office, the time required will be 15minuites, because each worker can clean 4 offices in an hour. To clean one more office , each worker will be paid $2($8/4)

The variable cost/total cost, average variable cost and the marginal cost of cleaning one more office will be

Variable cost =w.q = 2q

Average Variable Cost = VC/q = 2q/q = $2

sine the marginal cost also varies directly as the average marginal cost , the Marginal Cost is $2

Maren received 10 NQOs (each option gives her the right to purchase 10 shares of stock for $8 per share) at the time she started
MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

$500 gain and $185 tax

Explanation:

Sale of share = No. of  NQOs × No. of shares  × Selling price per share

                      = 10 × 10 × $20

                      = $2,000

Basis = No. of  NQOs × No. of shares  × share price @$15

         = 10 × 10 × $15

         = $1,500

Gain realised = Sale of share - Basis

                      = $2,000 - $1,500

                      = $500

The tax is calculated as follows:

= Gain realised × marginal tax rate

= $500 × 37%

= $185

baherus [9]

Answer:

NPV: $180,285.49

IRR: 21.336%

simple rate of return: 72.13%

Explanation:

6,100,000 investment

contribution margin 3,000,000

fixed expense:       <u>     900,000  </u>

EBITA                         2,100,000

We will calculate the NPV without the depreciation, as the depreciation is the distribution of the investment cost over the project life.

If we include the depreciation we will be counting the investment amount twice. Entirely at Time 0  and then subtracting on each cash inflow.

We will calculate the NPV at 20% as is the company's discount rate. Even if the current division returns are in 24% as the company accepts project which yields 20%.

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

C 2,100,000

time 5 years

rate 20% = 20/100 = 0.2

2100000 \times \frac{1-(1+0.2)^{-5} }{0.2} = PV\\

PV $6,280,285.49

NPV = PV of cash inflow - investment

6,280,285.49 - 6,100,000 = 180,285.49

<u>the IRR:</u>

The internal rate of return is the rate at which the NPV of a priject is zero.

We calculate this using excel formula IRR

or a financial calculator

it could also be done with trial and error using the PV tables.

<u>I will explain you in Excel</u>

FIrst, you write the inflow and outflow per year:

-6,100,000

2,100,000

2,100,000

2,100,000

2,100,000

2,100,000

then we write on another cell:

=IRR(

then, select the cells

and press enter

21.336%

<u>the simple rate of return:</u>

(total return - investment) / investment

(2,100,000 x 5 - 6,100,000) / 6,100,000 =

4,400,000 / 6,100,000 = 0.721311475 = 72.13%
