Joe's Tasty Burger has determined that its production facility has a design capacity of 400 hamburgers per day. The effective ca

Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

Design Capacity Utilization= 75%

Production efficiency = 120%

Explanation:

Okay, so the question is to determine both the design and the effective capacity utilization measures and make a conclusion from there

1. The Capacity Utilization = The Actual Output/ Design Capacity

Actual Output= 300 hamburgers a day

Design Capacity = 400 Hamburgers a day

Therefore Capacity Utilization = 300 hamburgers/400 hamburgers x 100

= 75%

2. The Efficiency of the production = The Actual Output / The Effective Capacity

Actual Output = 300 Hamburgers a day

Effective Capacity = 250 hamburgers

= 300 Hamburgers/ 250 Hamburgers x 100

= 120%

Conclusion

First we see that the actual utilization of capacity is more better than the effective capacity and this is good. Also, the Design Capacity is higher than the actual capacity utilization which should also be expected as design capacity is a calculation based on ideal conditions that may be not realistic in real life conditions.

Solution:

NPV is calculated as:

NPV = $\frac{C1}{1+r} +\frac{C1}{(1+r)^{2} } +\frac{C1}{(1+r)^{3} } + ....... + \frac{C1}{(1+r)^{n} } - A$

Initial investment = $16,500,000

We calculate the free cash flow of the project : ( Check the attachment )

Using NPV formula

NPV = − $ 7 , 328 , 810.58

IRR is the discount rate (R) when the NPV of the project will be equal to zero.

Solving the equation (1) for R we get:

R = 3.93%

So IRR of the project = 3.93%
