A land development company is considering the purchase of earth-moving equipment. This equipment will have an estimated first co

st of $199,000, a salvage value of $65,000, a life of 10 years, a maintenance cost of $32,000 per year, and an operating cost of $220 per day. Alternatively, the company can rent the necessary equipment for $1130 per day and hire a driver at $180 per day. If the company's MARR is 10% per year, how many days per year must the company need the equipment in order to justify its purchase?

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the number of days per year that the company will need the equipment in order to justify its purchase b represented by x.

Based on the information given, this will then be:

1130x + 180x = 199000(A/P, 10%,10) - 65000(A/F, 10%, 10), + 32000 + 220x

1310x = 199000(0.1627) - 65000(0.0627) + 32000 + 20x

1310x - 20x = 32377.3 - 4075.5 + 32000

1290x = 60301.8

x = 60301.8/1290

x = 46.75

Therefore, the answer is 46.75 days.

Answer:

Monopolist profit maximizing price

A: $3 per gallon , total output =270 Kelvins profit = $810(801/7/2 = $405

Maria's profit = $405

B. $2.5 per gallon . Kelvin's profit =$450 Maria's profit = 337.5

C = False. At the same quantity , fall in price brings fall in revenue

Cournot Nash equilibrium

Explanation:

In a monopolist market system , price are set higher than the marginal cost as the producer enjoy the dominance of the market through the production of a unique good.

At the price of $3 , change in demand =(270-225) =45 , change in revenue = ($810-$787.50)22.5 and marginal revenue = (45/22,5) = 0.5. That forms the maximizing price for a monopolist.

On the new arrangement , price drops to $2.5 , Maria's profit =(315-45/2)2.5 = $337.5 and Kelvin's = ($787.5-337.5) = $450

Cournot Nash equilibrium is business model that explains the competition among rival companies producing similar product on the level of output produced independently.

(problem 13). margo's marginal utility of one dance lesson is 100 utils per lesson. her marginal utility of a new pair of dance
kirill115 [55]

Since Margo purchase her optimal consumption bundle, the marginal utility per dollar consumed on dance lessons must be equivalent to the marginal utility per dollar paid on dance shoes. The marginal utility per dollar spent on dance lessons is 100 utils per lesson, where $50 per lesson is equivalent to 2 utils per dollar. The marginal utility per dollar expended on dance shoes therefore has to equal 2 utils per dollar. Since the marginal utility of a pair of dance shoes cost 300 utils per pair, the value of a pair of shoes should be $150 per pair, so that 300 utils per pair/$150 per pair is equal to: 2 utils per dollar.
