katovenus [111]

Answer:

The equipment shall be financially attractive when we have annual cash inflow in excess of 132,686

Explanation:

Calculate the PVIFA ( Present value of interest factor annuity ) at r = 12 % and n = 4 years

= [ 1 - (1.12)-4 ] / 0.12 = 3.03734935

Minimum annual cash flow needed = Investment / PVIFA = 403,014 / 3.03734935

= 132686

The equipment shall be financially attractive when we have annual cash inflow in excess of 132,686

In the month of June, Bedford Company sold 350 widgets. The average sales price was $34. During the month, fixed costs were $6,3

VikaD [51]

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

In June, Bedford Company sold 350 widgets. The average sales price was $34. During the month, fixed costs were $6,320 and variable costs were 40% of sales.

First, we need to calculate the unitary variable cost:

Unitary variable cost= 34*0.4= $13.6

Now, we can determine the contribution margin per unit and the contribution margin ratio:

contribution margin per unit= selling price - unitary variable cost

contribution margin per unit= 34 - 13.6= $20.4

contribution margin ratio= contribution margin per unit/selling price

contribution margin ratio= 20.4/34

contribution margin ratio= 0.6

To calculate the break-even point in units and dollars, we need to use the following formula:

Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit

Break-even point in units= 6,320/20.4

Break-even point in units= 310 units

Break-even point (dollars)= fixed costs/ contribution margin ratio

Break-even point (dollars)= 6,320/0.6

Break-even point (dollars)= $10,533

To calculate the margin of safety, we will use the following formula:

Margin of safety= (current sales level - break-even point)

Margin of safety= 350*34 - 10,533

Margin of safety= $1,367

Finally, the desired profit is $4,000:

Break-even point in units= (fixed costs + desired profit) / contribution margin per unit

Break-even point in units= (6,320 + 4,000) / 20.4

Break-even point in units= 506 units

Break-even point (dollars)= (fixed costs + desired profit)/ contribution margin ratio

Break-even point (dollars)= 10,320/0.6

Break-even point (dollars)= $17,200

In a certain economy, the components of planned spending are given by:

viktelen [127]

Answer:

B) 790-700r

Explanation:

Aggregate Expenditure is the expenditure by all the sectors of economy. By Households = Consumption (C), By Firms = Investment (I), By government = Govt spending (G) & tax leakages (T), By Rest world = Next Exports (NX).

Autonomous Expenditure is the level of expenditure in economy, which doesn't depend on level of Income = Y.

AE = C + I + G + NX

[500 + 0.8 (Y-150) - 300r] + [200 - 400r] + 200 + 10

500 + 0.8Y - 120 - 300r + 200 - 400r + 210

500 - 120 + 200 + 210 - 300r - 400r + 0.8y

790 - 700r + 0.8y

As, it can be seen that the part of AE = '790 - 700r', excluding '0.8y' : is not dependent on Income Y. So, it is Autonomous Expenditure
