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

Years ago in the overnight delivery business, providing package tracking capability gave some firms a competitive advantage. Now
Morgarella [4.7K]

When a company gains a competitive advantage over an action that becomes mandatory in the line of business, such as providing package tracking capability, this is an example of profitability factors becoming productivity factors over time.

<h3 /><h3>What are profitability factors?</h3>

It corresponds to factors that enable a company to be positioned and competitive in the market in which it operates, determined by internal and external agents, such as:

  • Demand force
  • Advertsing
  • Substitute products
  • Economy of scale
  • Costs

Therefore, an organization's profitability factors became productivity factors by instituting new forms of work management that generated competitive advantages for the organization.

So, the correct answer is:

D. Profitability factors; productivity factors.

X-treme Vitamin Company is considering two investments, both of which cost $10,000. The cash flows are as follows:Year Project A
liq [111]

Answer:

A) Project A = 0.83 year

B) NPV of Project B = $14,609.66

C) Answer B

Explanation:

Requirement A

We know,

Payback period = Last year with negative cumulative cash flows + (Absolute value of last year's cumulative cash flow ÷ Cash flow of the following year's negative cumulative cash flow)

Or, Payback period = A + ( B ÷ C)

                             Project A                                       Project B

Year   Cash Flow   Cumulative Cash Flow    Cash Flow  Cumulative Cash Flow

0 (A)   -$10,000      -$10,000 (B)                     -$10,000        -$10,000 (B)

1           $12,000 (C)      2,000                           $10,000(C)                 0

2              8,000         10,000                               6,000             6,000

3              6,000         16,000                              16,000           22,000

Payback period for project A = 0 + ($10,000 ÷ 12,000) = 0 + 0.833 = 0.83 year

Payback period for project B = 0 + ($10,000 ÷ 10,000) = 0 + 1 = 1 year

X-treme Vitamin Company should choose project A because it can return the investment earlier than project B.

Requirement B

We can use excel to find the Net Present Value for both the projects with a cost of capital of 10%.

The following image shows the NPV for project A and B.

From the calculation of NPV, X-treme Vitamin Company should choose project B as that project yields more present cash flows.

Requirement C

A firm should generally have more confidence in answer b because money can produce more logical sense than a year. Yes, it is easy to understand how many years a company will need to get back its cash flow. Still, the present value of cash flows provides a more specific evaluation of how to utilize the initial investment.

It's the price that the government needs to offer shareholders.
