Two alternate plans are available for increasing the capacity of existing water transmission lines between an unlimited source a

nd a reservoir. The unlimited source is at a higher elevation then the reservoir. Plan A calls for the construction of a parallel pipeline and flow by gravity. Plan B specifies construction of a booster pumping station. Estimated cost for the two plans are as follows: Hint: Use Present Worth- (do not guess show all your work) i=10%
Plan A : Cost $700,000, Life 40 Years, Annual Operation and Repair $1,000/Year
Plan B: Cost $200,000, Life 40 Years Structure and 20 years equipment, Equipment replacement at the end of 20 years $75,000, Annual Operation and Repairs 52,000/year
a. Plan A $709,779.00

Answer:

plan a

Explanation:

present worth of plan A= 700000+1000(p/a,10%,40)

= 700000+1000*9.779

= 700000+9779

= 709779 dollars

present worth of plan b = 200000+75000(p/f,10%,20)+52000/year(p/a,10%,40)

= 200000+75000*0.1486+52000*9.779

= 719653 dollars.

we compare the  pw of both a and b, from the solutions above, the present worth of plan a is smaller than that of plan b, so the best option is plan a, <u>$709,779.00</u>

The Chilton Corporation specializes in manufacturing one type of desk lamp. Chilton allocates variable manufacturing overhead co
docker41 [41]

Answer:

Variable manufacturing overhead rate variance = 80,000 favorable

Explanation:

Given:

Overhead rate variance = $1.70 per hour

Total machine hour = 160,000 hour

Actual overhead costs = $192,000

Find:

Variable manufacturing overhead rate variance

Computation:

Variable manufacturing overhead rate variance = [Standard overhead rate - Actual overhead rate]Actual hour

Variable manufacturing overhead rate variance =[1.7 - (192,000 / 160,000)]160,000

Variable manufacturing overhead rate variance = [1.7 - (1.2)]160,000

Variable manufacturing overhead rate variance = [0.5]160,000

Variable manufacturing overhead rate variance = 80,000 favorable

Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

$70,000

Explanation:

In this question, we are asked to calculate the amount credited to common stock warrants at issuance of the preferred stock.

A mathematical approach is needed to compute this.

Mathematically the amount credited to common stock warrants at issuance is calculated by multiplying the selling price of a warrant by the number of warrants.

The selling price of a warrant according to the question is $7. The number of shares issued is 10,000.

The amount credited to common stock warrants at issuance = $7 * 10,000 = $70,000
