Answer:

E) Only Machine B is acceptable

Explanation:

The computation is shown below;

<u>For Machine A      </u>

<u>Year     Cash Flow     PV Factor     PV of Cash Flow   </u>

0          -$9,000               1              -$9,000    

1            $5,000          0.8696         $4,348    

2           $4,000            0.761            $3,044    

3            $2,000           0.6575       $1,315    

NPV                                                 -$293    

<u>Machine B      </u>

<u>Year      Cash Flow      PV Factor       PV of Cash Flow </u>  

0          -$9000                    1               -$9,000    

1            $1,000                  0.8696       $869.6    

2           $2,000                  0.761          $1,522    

3            $11,000                 0.6575       $7,232.5    

NPV                                                         $624.1  

As we can see that from the above calculations that the npv for machine A is in negative so the same should not be accepted but for machine the npv is in positive so the same should be accepted

Gemiola [76]

Answer:

a.$1,650,000 $1,500,000

b. $1,500,000 $1,500,000

c.$1,300,000 $1,500,000

Assuming that Acme’s situation is similar to that of other firms, output will equal to short-run equilibrium output in CASE B

Explanation:

Actual Investment, Planned investment

a.$1,650,000 $1,500,000

b. $1,500,000 $1,500,000

c.$1,300,000 $1,500,000

Assuming that Acme’s situation is similar to that of other firms, output will equal to short-run equilibrium output in CASE B

Acme’s planned investment in every case is $1,500,000.

Therefore the key to this problem is to find the amount of unplanned inventory investment Acme makes then add this to their planned investment to find Acme’s actual investment

a. If Acme sells $3,850,000 worth of goods, it has unplanned inventory investment of $150,000 and total actual investment of $1,650,000.

$4,000,000-$3,850,000=$150,000

$1,500,000+$150,000=$1,650,000

b. If Acme sells $4,000,000 worth of goods as it planned, its actual investment of $1,500,000 isequal to its planned investment

$4,000,000-$4,000,000= $0

$0+$1,500,000=$1,500,000

c. If Acme sells $4,200,000 worth of goods, it must draw down $200,000 worth of goods from itsexisting inventory, implying that inventory investment is –$200,000.

$4,000,000-$4,200,000= -$200,000

Acme’s actual investment in this case is $1,500,000 – $200,000 = $1,300,000.

Output equals short-run equilibrium output in CASE B , so planned spending and actual spendingare equal.

arlik [135]

Answer:

1. 1,500 miles

2. Profit

3.4,000 miles

Explanation:

1. Calculation to Determine how many miles Russell needs to drive to break even k-Even Miles

First step is to calculate the Unit contribution margin

Using this formula

Let plug in the formula

Unit contribution margin = Sales price – Variable cost per unit

Unit contribution margin= $0.75 per mile – $0.35 per mile

Unit contribution margin= $0.40 per mile

Now let determine the Break-even units using this formula

Break-even units = Total fixed cost / Unit contribution margin

Let plug in the formula

Break-even units= $600 / $0.40

Break-even units= 1,500 miles

Therefore how many miles Russell needs to drive to break even k-Even Miles will be 1,500 miles

2. Calculation to determine whether he earned a profit or a loss last month Assume Russell drove 1,800 miles last month

Profit=1,800 miles – 1,500 miles

Profit=300 miles

Therefore Assume Russell drove 1,800 miles last month he will EARNED A PROFIT last month

3. Calculation to determine how many miles Russell must drive to earn $1,000 in profit.

Using this formula

Target units = (Fixed cost + Target Profit) / Unit contribution margin

Let plug in the formula

Target units = ($600 + $1,000) / $0.40

Target units = 4,000 miles

Therefore how many miles Russell must drive to earn $1,000 in profit will be 4,000 miles

Daniel [21]

Answer:

Framing effects.

Explanation:

Framing effect in psychology is the cognitive bias whereby an individual makes decisions based more on the information presented than on one's own choice. In other words, when someone makes a decision that is influenced more by the effects of the information on others than on one's own opinions.

In the given scenario, Josh's decision to have tiramisu only when others are having dessert and not if he would be the only one having dessert is affected by the framing effect. This is because his decision is influenced by the way others behave rather than his desire to eat even his favorite dessert.

Thus, the correct answer is the framing effect.
