Assume that it is January 1, 2019, and that the Mendoza Company is considering the replacement of a machine that has been used f

or the past 3 years in a special project for the company. This project is expected to continue for an additional 5 years (i.e., until the end of 2023). Mendoza will either keep the existing machine for another 5 years (8 years total) or replace the existing machine now with a new model that has a 5-year estimated life. Pertinent facts regarding this decision are as follows:
Keep Existing Machine Purchase New Machine
Purchase price of machine (including transportation, setup charges, etc.) $ 150,000 $ 190,000
Useful life (determined at time of acquisition) 8 years 5 years
Estimated salvage value, end of 2023* $ 20,000 $ 25,000
Expected cash operating costs, per year:
Variable (per unit produced/sold) $ 0.25 $ 0.19
Fixed costs (total) $ 25,000 $ 24,000
Estimated salvage (terminal) values:
January 1, 2019 $ 68,000
December 31, 2023 $ 12,000 $ 22,000
Net working capital committed at time of acquisition of existing machine (all fully recovered at end of project, December 31, 2023) $ 30,000
Incremental net working capital required if new machine is purchased on January 1, 2019 (all fully recovered at end of project, December 31, 2023) $ 10,000
Expected annual volume of output/sales (in units), over the period 2019–2023 500,000 500,000
*Note: These amounts are used for depreciation calculations.
Assume further that Mendoza is subject to a 40% income tax, both for ordinary income and gains/losses associated with disposal of machinery, and that all cash flows occur at the end of the year, except for the initial investment. Assume that straight-line depreciation is used for tax purposes and that any tax associated with the disposal of machinery occurs at the same time of the related transaction.
Required:
1. Determine relevant cash flows (after-tax) at time of purchase of the new machine (i.e., time 0: January 1, 2019).
2. Determine the relevant (after-tax) cash inflow each year of project operation (i.e., at the end of each of years 1 through 5).
3. Determine the relevant (after-tax) cash inflow at the end of the project's life (i.e., at the project's disposal time, December 31, 2023).
5. Determine the undiscounted net cash flow (after tax) for the new machine and determine whether on this basis the old machine should be replaced.

Each year a company selects a number of employees for a management training program. On average, 60 percent of those sent comple
Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

the probability that exactly 8 complete the program is 0.001025

Explanation:

given information:

60 % of those sent complete the program, p = 0.6

the total of people being sent, n = 27

exactly 8 complete the program, x = 8

to find the probability, we can use the following formula

P(X=x)=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}n\\x\\\end{array}\right] p^{x} (1-p)^{n-x}

P(X=8)=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}27\\8\\\end{array}\right] 0.6^{8} (1-0.6)^{27-8}

P(X=8)=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}27\\8\\\end{array}\right] 0.6^{8} (0.4)^{19}

                = 0.001025

Compute the present value of $700 paid in three years using the following discount rates: 5 percent in the first year, 6 percent
Aneli [31]

Answer:

$587.79

Explanation:

Data provided in the question

Amount paid in three years = $700

Discount rate in the first year = 5%

Discount rate in the second year = 6%

Discount rate in the third year = 7%

So by considering the above information, the present value is

= (Amount paid in three years) ÷ (1 + Discount rate in the first year × 1 + Discount rate in the second year × 1 + Discount rate in the third year)

=  ($700) ÷ (1 + 0.05 × 1 + 0.06 × 1 + 0.07)

= ($700) ÷ (1.05 × 1.06 × 1.07)

= $700 ÷ 1.19091

= $587.79

For luxury carmakers, the lowest-end models in their product lines often represent only a small portion of their sales. Yet thes
dimaraw [331]

Answer:

C) loyalty to the brand

Explanation:

Brand loyalty refers to a customer's personal attachment to a brand, e.g. some people really like certain car brands and to them, they are the best cars in the world, and no one should dare say the opposite in front of them.

Lowest end models generally attract younger buyers, and if they develop brand loyalty, they will keep buying the same brand over and over again. Their future cars will generally be larger and more expensive ones also.

This is one of the reasons why Cadillac's sales are continuously falling, since for decades they only focused on elder and wealthier customers, who are really old now.
