Answer:
a. Determine the total charge under each plan for this case: 120 minutes of day calls and 40 minutes of evening calls in a month.
- Cost for Plan A = ($0.41 x 120) + ($0.16 x 40) + $20 = $
75.60
- Cost for Plan B = ($0.51 x 120) + ($0.15 x 40) + $20 = $
87.20
- Cost for Plan C = $80 + $20 = $100
b. If the agent will use the service for daytime calls, over what range of call minutes will each plan be optimal?
- If the agent will use the service only for daytime calls, Plan A is better if the agent uses 195 minutes maximum. If the agent expects to use 196 or more minutes, then Plan C is better.
c. Suppose that the agent expects both daytime and evening calls. At what point (i.e., percentage of total call minutes used for daytime calls) would she be indifferent between plans A and B?
- Plan A charges 10¢ less per daytime minute, while plan B charges 1¢ less for evening minutes, that means that the proportion of daytime calls should be 1/11, while the proportion of evening calls should be 10/11.
Answer:
$58,002.60
Explanation:
First, it is clear to include the $21,000 as part of the value of the equipment.
Now, the $9,000 annual payment after every year for six years need to be presented in its present value, meaning what is the value of those future amounts of $9,000 on June 30, 2018.
To calculate the present value of annuity (annuity means constant and equal payments) for those 6 payments of $9,000, we would need the Present Value Factor which is supplied from the Present Value Table.
Looking at 12% for 6 periods ("six annual installments") on the table, it gives the PV factor of 4.1114.
Just multiply $9,000 by 4.1114 and we get 37,002.60
Finally add the downpayment of $21,000 with the present value $37,002.60 and we would get the total value of the equipment of 58,002.60
Reverse logistics is the process by which businesses handle the return of consumer items for recycling or because they are defective.
Supply chain management that sends goods back from buyers to sellers or producers is known as reverse logistics. Reverse logistics are needed for procedures like returns or recycling after a customer receives a product. Reverse logistics begin at the customer and work their way backward through the supply chain to the producer or the distributor. Reverse logistics can also refer to procedures where the customer is in charge of the product's final disposal, such as recycling, refurbishing, or resale.
