Janes, Inc., is considering the purchase of a machine that would cost $410,000 and would last for 5 years, at the end of which,

the machine would have a salvage value of $41,000. The machine would reduce labor and other costs by $101,000 per year. Additional working capital of $3,000 would be needed immediately, all of which would be recovered at the end of 5 years. The company requires a minimum pretax return of 13% on all investment projects.
Required:

Answer:

- $33,678.21

Explanation:

Cash flow Summary of the Project will be as follows

Year 0 = $410,000 + $3,000 = - $413,000

Year 1 = $101,000

Year 2 = $101,000

Year 3 = $101,000

Year 4 = $101,000

Year 5 = $101,000 + $41,000 + 3,000 =  $145,000

So the Net Present Value can now be calculated using the CFj function of a Financial calculator as follows :

- $413,000 CF 0

  $101,000 CF 1

  $101,000 CF 2

  $101,000 CF 3

  $101,000 CF 4

 $145,000 CF 5

i/yr = 13%

Shift NPV = - $33,678.21

dlinn [17]

Answer:

CREATES AN ADVANTAGE FROM ECONOMIES OF SCALE.

Explanation:

A well designed global strategy can help firms to gain competitive advantage. This competitive advantage can be gotten from economies of scale from access to more customers, markets, technology, and resources (efficiency of operations).

Economies of scale simply means that as a company grows and production units increase, a company will have a better chance to decrease its costs.

Competitive advantage is developed largely on a global basis meaning that the world is treated as one market and one source of supply with just local variation. Example is the Pepsi and Coca-Cola that sells in every country.

Therefore, a global strategy CREATES AN ADVANTAGE FROM ECONOMIES OF SCALE.

Dominik [7]

Units in ending inventory = Units in beginning inventory + Units produced −Units sold

Thus,

= 0 units + 5,500 units −4,350 units

= 1,150 units

Formula for Value of ending inventory under variable costing

= Unit in ending inventory × Variable production cost

= 1,150 units × $13.50 per unit

= $15,525

  Quarter 3              75,250                                       $ 90,300

  Quarter 4              60,500                                       <u>$ 72,600</u>

  Full year                                                                  $ 343.500

  Quarter 2                                                                 $ 91,980

  Quarter 3                                                                 $ 93.660  

  Quarter 4                                                                 <u>$ 79,680</u>

Total Year payments                                                 $ 320,060

4.  Total cost of Direct Labor    

  Quarter 1                                                                  $ 27,900

  Quarter 2                                                                 $ 37,200

  Quarter 3                                                                 $ 34,100  

  Quarter 4                                                                 <u>$ 31,000</u>

Total Year for direct labor                                       $ 130,200

Explanation:

Computation of raw material purchases

<u>Raw material consumption</u>

Qtr No of Units per qtr Total Requirement

1        9,000 * 7 gms per unit =      63,000 gms

2      12,000 * 7 gms per unit =      84,000 gms

3       11,000 * 7 gms per unit =      77,000 gms

4       10,000 * 7 gms per unit =     <u>70,000</u> gms

Total Year                                     294,000 gms

Raw Material Purchases for each quarter

Purchases = Closing inventory + Consumption - Opening inventory

1 21,000 (84,000gms * 25 % ) + 63,000 - 15.750 =  68,250 gms  

2 19,250 (77,000gms* 25 %) + 84,000 - 21,000 =  82,250 gms

3 17,500 ( 70,000gms* 25 %) + 77,000-19,250 =  75,250 gms

4 8,000 ( As per data) + 70,000-17.500            =  60,500 gms

Total year purchases =                                       =  286,250 gms

<u>Cost of purchases</u>

Quarter 1    68,250 gms  * $ 1.20     = $  81,900

Quarter 2   82,250 gms * $ 1.20      = $  98,700

Quarter 3   75,250 gms * $ 1,20     =  $ 90,300

Quarter 4   60,500 gms * $ 1,20    =   <u>$ 72,600</u>

Total purchases                                   $ 343,500

Computation of cash disbursements for purchases

Quarter 1 Payments = Opening Payables + 60 % of quarter 1

$ 5,600 + ( 60 %* $ 81,900) = $ 5,600 + $ 49,140 =               $ 54,740

Quarter 2 payments

(40 % of quarter 1) + ( 60 % of quarter 2)

($ 81,900 * 40 %) + ( $ 98,700 * 60 %)

$ 32,760 + $ 59,220                                               =                $ 91,980

Quarter 3 payments

(40 % of quarter 2) + ( 60 % of quarter 3)

($ 98,700 * 40 %) + ( $ 90,300 * 60 %)

$ 39,480 + $ 54,180                                                =                $ 93.660    

Quarter 4 payments

(40 % of quarter 3) + ( 60 % of quarter 4)

($ 90,300 * 40 %) + ( $ 72,600 * 60 %)

$ 36,120 + $ 43,560                                                =               <u> $ 79,680</u>

Total payments for purchases for the year                            $ 320,060

Computation of direct labor cost  

No of units * Estimated Direct labor hours * Labor rate per hour

Quarter 1  =    9,000 * 0.20 per unit * $ 15.50               =         $  27.900

Quarter 2  =   12,000 * 0.20 per unit * $ 15.50               =        $  37.200

Quarter 3       11,000 * 0.20 per unit * $ 15.50               =         $  34.100

Quarter 4       10,000 * 0.20 per unit * $ 15.50               =         <u>$  31.000</u>

Total cost for Direct labour                                                        $ 130,200
