Answer:

The answer is $59,948.7

Explanation:

Solution

Given that:

The Cost of medical equipment = $350,000

The Salvage value = 10% of cost of medical equipment = 0.10 * $350,000 = $35,000

Now,

The Useful life = 10 years

Thus,

It has been stated that investment with risk similar earn is a 12% rate of return.

Hence, the average opportunity cost per year is equal to the equal cost annual of this medical equipment.

So

We Calculate the equivalent annual cost -

Which is

EAC = Cost of medical equipment(A/P, i, n) - salvage value(A/F, i, n)

EAC = 350,000(A/P, 12%, 10) - [35,000(A/F, 12%, 10)]

EAC = [350,000 * 0.17698] - [35,000 * 0.05698]

EAC = 61,943 - 1994.3

EAC = 59,948.7

Therefore, the opportunity cost average per year is $59,948.7

Answer:

(i) Base year prices

(ii) between two consecutive years

Explanation:

formula for GDP deflator is (real GDP)/(nominal GDP) x 100 which is the numerator real GDP where prices are valued at the current year adjusted to inflation or deflation and then the denominator where prices are valued at a base year where prices are valued at a nominal year which are not adjusted to any inflation or deflation.

The CPI ( consumer price index) is calculated by determining the rise or fall in price of a good or goods in two consecutive periods which in turn gives us the increase or decrease in price percentage.
