Answer:

9 years

Explanation:

Note: See the attached excel file for the calculation of the cumulative present value (PV).

Annual cost saving = $16,000 - $12,000 = $4,000

With annual cash saving of $4,000 and 12% return on investment (ROI), the cumulative PV of the cash flow from installing the insulation becomes positive in the 9th year at $1,313.

Since the cumulative PV is positive in the 9th year, that means the discounted payback year is 9th year. Therefore, the warehouse have to run for 9 years in order to justify the insulation project.

Note:

The actual discounted payback period is approximately 8 years and 1 month as calculated below:

Discounted payback period = 8 years and ((129.44/1,442.44) * 12) = 8 years and 1 month.

Vilka [71]

Answer:

$28,800

I will just assume that there are three equal annual principal payments of $480,000. If we use $550,000, the total principal would = $1,650,000.

accrued interests from September to December = principal x (9%/12) x 4 months

principal = $480,000 x 2 = $960,000

accrued interest payable  = $960,000 x 0.75% x 4 = $28,800

alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

4) All of the above

Explanation:

The day care program should have rewardedbeing on time to encourage this attitude.

Instead they put a price on being late. As parent considers this price cheap they arrive later to have some extra time beofre picking their childrens

Either the day care program reconsiders the fine policy and moves into a better program to estimulate being on time or it increases the "price" so is more expensive for the parents to come in time rather than paiying their fines.

fenix001 [56]

Answer:

debit Unearned Rent Revenue and credit Rent Revenue, $12,000.

Explanation:

Provided information we have,

Rent is received on 1 September 2017 for a period of 1 year on which it is accounted as Unearned Rent amounting $36,000.

Entry on that date would be

Cash A/c Dr.                  $36,000

To Unearned Rent                        $36,000

At the end of the year on 31 December 2017, we have period of current year lapsed = 1 September to 31 December = 4 months.

Thus rent income for the year = $36,000 \times \frac{4}{12} = $12,000

Therefore this rent of $12,000 will be recognized as rent income for the year 2017.

Entry will be

Unearned Rent A/c Dr.            $12,000

          To Rent Revenue                         $12,000

Anastaziya [24]

Breakeven price is the minimum price a product or service  must be sold to cover the cost of producing it. Its aim is to ensure that items are not sold at a loss.

Cost of room reservation = $3000

Cost of room / student = $3000/20 = $150

Course materials per student = $25

Total cost of course materials = $25 * 20 =$500

Total cost of training = $3,500

Target attendees = 20

Breakeven price  = $3500/20 = $175
