Answer:

a. $50

b. $500,000

Explanation:

The computation of the fixed cost and the variable cost per unit by using high low method is shown below:

a. Variable cost per unit = (High total cost - low total cost) ÷ (High number of units produced - low number of units produced)

= ($2,400,000 - $1,900,000) ÷ (30,000 units - 20,000 units )

= $500,000 ÷ 10,000 units

= $50

b. Now the fixed cost equal to

= High total cost - (High number of units produced × Variable cost per unit)

= $2,400,000 - (30,000 units × $50)

= $2,400,000 - $1,500,000

= $900,000

Crash time is defined as

chubhunter [2.5K]

a. the shortest possible time to complete an activity. Crash Time is the shortest possible time it takes to complete a job or activity by expediting everything associated with the job or activity. It's a good example of the time/money trade off in that you can frequently decrease the time something takes by spending more money. So let's look at the choices and see why they're right or wrong. a. The shortest possible time to complete an activity. * This pretty much is the same as the definition, so it's the correct choice. b. The time necessary to complete an activity under abnormal conditions. * This answer raises the question "What's an abnormal condition?" Does everything go right and things go faster? Does everything go wrong and it's gonna take a long time? In my experience both extremes are "abnormal". So this is a wrong choice. c. The difference between earliest start time and earliest finish time. * This answer is lacking the idea of a job or task. Earliest start time of what? So it's a wrong choice. d. The activity time associated with any management intervention. * So a phone call from management would be crash time? The boss walking past to see how things are doing? This is a very open ended and ambiguous answer. So it's wrong.

Problem 3.10 Net Present Value. Assume that your firm wants to choose between two project options: Project A: $500,000 invested

Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

Project B is a better investment

Explanation:

Given:

Project A's initial investment is $500,000

Expected cash inflow starting from year 1 for 5 years is $150,000

Required rate of return is 10% and inflation is 3%. So required rate of return is 13%

NPV of project A = -500,000 + Present value of annuity of $150,000, 5 years at 13%

Present value of annuity factor of $1, 13%, 5 periods = 3.5172

NPV of project A = -500,000 + (150,000 × 3.5172)

= $27,580

Poject B's initial investment = $400,000

Use present value factor of $1, 13% to compute present value of cash inflows:

Year 1 = 0

Year 2 = 50,000 × 0.7831 = 39,155

Year 3 = 200,000 × 0.6931 = 138,620

Year 4 = 300,000 × 0.6133 = 183,990

Year 5 = 200,00 × 0.5428 = 108,560

NPV of project B = -400,000 + (39,155 + 138,620 + 183,990 + 108,560)

= $70,325

Since project B's NPV is higher than project A, project B is a better investment.
