A piece of equipment has a first cost of $170,000, a maximum useful life of 7 years, and a market (salvage) value described by t

he relation S = 120,000 – 11,000k, where k is the number of years since it was purchased. The salvage value cannot go below zero. The AOC series is estimated using AOC = 60,000 + 14,000k. The interest rate is 12% per year. Determine the economic service life and the respective AW.

Answer:The answer is economic service life is 8 Years, The Annual worth is $27,225.7

Explanation:

Given the equation

S = 120,000 - 11,000K,and AOC is 60,000 - 14,000K, where K is the number of years since the machine was purchased

Substitute the value of K into the equation

S= 120,000 - 11,000 (7)

S = 120,000 - 11,000 ×7

S= 120,000 - 77,000

S= 43,000

AOC = 60,000 - 14,000 (7)

AOC = 60,000 - 14,000 × 7

AOC = 60,000 - 98,000

A

To calculate the economic useful life,we use the equivalent annual cost( EAC)

Yr particular. CF DF. PV

0. Purchase cost 170,000. 1. ( 170,000)

1-7. Running cost. (38,000) 0.4523. 17,187.4

Discount Factor is calculated thus

(1 + r)-∧n , since r = 12% ,n = 7 (1+0.12)∧-7 = 0.4523

8years replacement

Yr. Particular. CF. DF. PV

0. Purchase cost. 170,000 1. (170,000)

1-7. Running cost. (38,000) 0.4523. 17,187.4

1-7. Scrap proceed 43,000. 0.4523. 19,448.9

8 Scrap proceed 43,000. 0.4523. 19,448.9

-------------------

113,914.8

--------------------------

Finding the 7years replacement at the cost of capital using (1+r)∧-n/r

= (1+0.12)∧-7 -1/0.12

= (1.12)∧-7 -1/0.12

= 0.4523-1/0.12

=0.5477/0.12

= 4.5642

Therefore Equivalent Annual Cost

= 133,363.7/4.5642

= $29,219.51

8years replacementat the cost of capital using

(1+r)∧n -1/r

(1+0.12)∧-8 -1/0.12

=(1.12)∧-8 -1/0.12

= 0.4038 -1/0.12

=0.5962/0.12

=4.9683

EAC = 113,914.8/4.9683

= $22,928.33

Since they are both cost we prefer the cheapest, that is 8 years replacement

Therefore the economic life of the machine is 8years

To calculate the AW, we use the formula

AW = -P ( P-S)(A/P r n ) - Sr

AW= -(170,000 - 43,000) ( A/P 12% 7) - 43,000 (0.12)

To calculate (A/P r n ),we use the formula

A= P i (1+ r)∧n/ (1 + r )∧n - 1

0.12 (1+0.12)∧7/(1+0.12)∧7-1

= 0.12 ( 1.12)∧7/(1.12)∧7 -1

0.12 (2.210681407)/1.21061407

= 0.265281768/1.210681407

= 0.2191

AW = -127,000,000 (0.2191) --38,000 - 43,000 (0.12)

= 27,825.7 - 5,000 (0.12)

= 27,825.7 - 600

= $27,225.7

Therefore the economic life is 8years, Annual worth is $27,225.7

dimulka [17.4K]

<u>Answer:</u> Option C

<u>Explanation:</u>

The total compensation along with benefits are $72000. When the employee benefits calculated the annual gross pay given in option C . 12.5% interest calculated on $64000 will give total compensation of $72000.

Calculation of total compensation

Employee benefits = $64000 x 12.5/100

                               =$8000

Annual compensation= $64000 +$8000

                                    =$72000

Consumer surplus is A. the difference between the highest price a consumer is willing to pay and marginal benefit. B. the differ
belka [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is C. the difference between the highest price a consumer is willing to pay and the price the consumer actually pays.

Explanation:

Consumer surplus arises from the law of diminishing returns. This means that the first unit to acquire we value it highly but as we acquire additional units our valuation falls. However, the price we pay for any unit is always the same: the market price. In this way, we enjoy a positive surplus of the first units we acquire until we reach the last one in which the surplus will be zero.

In graphic terms, consumer surplus is measured as the area below the market demand curve and above the price line. The demand curve measures the amount consumers are willing to pay for each unit consumed. Then, the total area below the demand curve reflects the total utility of consumption of the good or service. If the price we pay for each unit is subtracted from this area, the consumer surplus is obtained.

Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

First find the present value of the lease. Payments are constant and fixed so this is an annuity. As it is to be paid from the beginning, it is an Annuity due.

= Annuity * Present value interest factor of annuity due, 5 years, 7%.

= 37,400 * 4.3872

= $164,081
