Swagelok Enterprises is a manufacturer of miniature fittings and valves. Over a 5-year period, the costs associated with one pro

Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

The rate of return did the company make on this product is 61.93%

Explanation:

initial cost = 20000

Annual benefit = 29000

Annual cost = 16000

Salvage value = 10000

t = 5yrs

Let rate of return is I, then at rate of return NPV=0

Present value = -20000 + (29000 - 16000)*(P/A, i, 5) + 10000 (P/F, i, 5)

-20000 + 13000*(P/A, i, 5) + 10000 (P/F, i, 5) = 0

13*(P/A, i, 5) + 10* (P/F, i, 5) = 20

We need to use trail and error method to find rate of return

At = 10%, value of expression 13*(P/A, i, 5) + 10* (P/F, i, 5) is 55.49

At = 15%, value of expression 13*(P/A, i, 5) + 10* (P/F, i, 5) is 48.55

At = 25%, value of expression 13*(P/A, i, 5) + 10* (P/F, i, 5) is 38.24

At = 35%, value of expression 13*(P/A, i, 5) + 10* (P/F, i, 5) is 31.09

At = 45%, value of expression 13*(P/A, i, 5) + 10* (P/F, i, 5) is 25.94

At = 55%, value of expression 13*(P/A, i, 5) + 10* (P/F, i, 5) is 22.11

At = 60%, value of expression 13*(P/A, i, 5) + 10* (P/F, i, 5) is 20.55

At = 62%, value of expression 13*(P/A, i, 5) + 10* (P/F, i, 5) is 19.98

using interpolation

rate of return = 0.6 + (20.55-20)/(20.55-19.98) * (0.62-0.6)

= 0.6+0.019298

= 0.6193

= 61.93%

Therefore, The rate of return did the company make on this product is 61.93%

True [87]

Answer: B. The indicator of success was inappropriate.

Explanation:

The new policy was implemented to get 25% reduction in absenteeism. However, if vacations are also counted as absenteeism how would one specify if the policy introduced was successful or not?

Therefore, the success parameter was vague and there should be other parameters in order to judge the success of the new policy implemented.

Regional trade agreements In the following table, indicate whether each statement about regional trade agreements is true or fal

trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

A. True

B. True

C. True

D. True

E. False

F. True

Explanation:

It is true that under regional trade agreements, several countries eliminate tariffs among themselves and lower tariffs against all other countries.

It is true that regional trade agreements are consistent with GATT's most favored nation principle. GATT is an acronym for General agreement on tarrifs and trade and most favoured nation (MFN) is a status or level of treatment accorded by one state to another in international trade. The term means the country which is the recipient of this treatment must nominally receive equal trade advantages as the "most favoured nation" by the country granting such treatment (trade advantages include low tariffs or high import quotas).

It is true that the countries in the European Union (EU) keep their own tariffs with the countries outside the EU. The EU trade agreement is basically to promote trade among EU countries, not necessarily to lower tariffs for non members.

US and China have a trade agreement which lowers tarrifs and US and Canada operate a Free Trade agreement (FTA) which seeks to eliminate all tarrifs on trade between the two countries. Therefore If China wants to sell a good to Canada, it can first export it to the United States, where the tariff is lower, and then ship it duty- free to Canada.

It is false that countries who enter into a free trade area agreement maintain a common schedule of tariffs with countries outside the agreement. The agreement does not cover trade among non members.

In customs union, rules of origin are not needed. Custom unions only considers where the good is shipped from and not the originating nation.
