Answer:

$-1081.01

$-2536.89

Explanation:

Equivalent annual cost method is a capital budgeting method used to choose between two projects with an unequal life span

The decision rule is to choose the product with the higher Equivalent annual cost

Equivalent annual annuity method is better for making this decision because if net present value is used, the project with the higher useful life would be chosen. this does not mean it is more profitable

EAA = \frac{r(NPV)}{1 - \frac{1}{(1+ r)^{n} } }

Net present value is the present value of after-tax cash flows from an investment less the amount invested.  

NPV can be calculated using a financial calculator

Machine A

Cash flow in year 0 = - $5,000

Cash flow in year 1 =  $800

Cash flow in year 2 =  $900

Cash flow in year 3 =  $1,000  

I = 9%

NPV A = -2736.35

Machine B

Cash flow in year 0 = -$6,000

Cash flow in year 1 = $850

Cash flow in year 2 = $900

I = 9%

NPV B = -4462.67

EAA =

(0.09 x -2736.35) / ( 1 - (1.09)^3) = $-1081.01

(0.09 x -4462.67) / ( 1 - (1.09)^2)= $-2536.89

sdas [7]

Answer:

One possible explanation is that the Blimpie franchisor is working properly since the franchisees are not receiving proper training and support in order to operate the franchise.

Another reason is that the Blimpie franchise model is simply not efficient (i.e. bad) and it is really hard to operate properly.

On the side of the franchisees, they might not have sufficient working capital since they budgeted higher revenues or lower costs. The franchisor shares the blame for this situation, since before establishing the franchise, the franchisor should request that the franchisee has enough enough working capital to operate the business properly.
