Answer:
E) existing factory has enough capacity to handle demand for the new products as well as the existing products.
Explanation:
If the existing factory doesn't have enough capacity to produce both the new product and existing ones, then if doesn't matter if the technology used is the same, or the new product is an extension of an existing product line, or existing human resources possess the abilities and knowledge required, or even if the product design is already complete or not.
If the factory's production capacity cannot handle the new product, then the company needs to expand the existing factory's production capacity or build a new facility.

Answer:
C) 100 − 16Y
Explanation:
The computation of the marginal benefit is shown below:
The marginal functions represent the derivatives with respect to the total functions as compared to Y.
so, the marginal benefit function is MB(Y)=dB(Y) ÷ dY
d (100Y - 8Y^2} ÷ dY
= 100 -16Y
Therfeore the option c is correct
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
a. Direct material = 4 × 33300 = Make $133200 ; Net income increase
Direct labor = 5 × 33300 = Make $166500 ; Net income increase
Variable costing= 0.61 × $166500 = Make $101565 ; Net income increase
Fixed manufacturing = Make 43100 ; Buy 43100 ;
Purchase price = 13.16 × 33300 = Buy $438228 ; Net income decrease
Total annual cost:
Make: $444365
Buy: $481328
Net income decrease = $36963
b. No, Pottery Ranch should not buy the finials. There's an incremental cost of $36963.
c. Incremental revenue = $50,367
Incremental cost = $36963
Incremental revenue = $50367 - $36963 = $13404
In this case, it should be bought.
Answer:
I strongly believe that the requirement is to calculate the price of the bond.
The bond is worth $ 70,824,063.03
Explanation:
It is noteworthy that a rational would-be investor would pay for a bond a price that reflects the cash flows receivable from the bonds in future discounted to today's terms.
The future cash flows comprise of the semi-annual coupon interest of $4 million(10%/2 *$80 million) for 20 periods as well as the repayment of the principal $80 million at the end of period 20
Since coupon is paid every six months, the coupon would be twenty times over the life of the bond(paid twice a year for 10 years)
To bring the cash inflows today's term, we multiply them them by the discounting factor 1/(1+r)^N , where is the yield to maturity of 12% and N is the relevant the cash flow is received.
The discounting is done in attached spreadsheet leading $ 70,824,063.03 present value today.
