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.

How many months will it take to pay off a $470 debt, with monthly payments of $20 at the end of each month, if the annual intere
amm1812

Answer:

28 month (approx)

Explanation:

Given

Present value = $470

Monthly Payment = $20

Interest Rate = 15% annual = 15% / 12 = 1.25% monthly

                                                             =0.0125

<h3>Present Value = PMT [\frac{1-(1+i)^{-n}}{i}] \\470 = 20 [\frac{1-(1+0.0125)^{-n}}{0.0125}]\\470/20 = [\frac{1-(1+0.0125)^{-n}}{0.0125}]\\23.5 \times 0.0125 =1-(1+0.0125)^{-n}\\1-0.29375= (1+0.0125)^{-n}\\0.70625 = (1+0.0125)^{-n}\\0.70625 =(1.0125)^{-n}\\0.70625= \frac{1}{(1.0125)^{n}}\\(1.0125)^{n}=1.4159292\\n=28(approx)</h3><h3 />

Answer:

The unit costs are $ 4.87 for 70 % Conversion Costs

The unit costs are $ 5.54 for finished goods

Explanation:

Total Materials cost = $ 115,080

Material Costs  for one unit= $ 115,080/ 34000= $ 3.3847= $ 3.39

Conversion Costs= $ 72,072

Conversion Costs for one unit = $ 72072/34000 * 70%= $ 1.4838= $ 1.48

Total Cost per unit= $ 3.39 + $ 1.48= $ 4.87

Process Cost summary

Quantity Schedule

Materials = ($3.39 *34,000)=                   $ 115,080

Cost Added by Department:                     Total Cost             Unit Cost

Materials=                                                  $ 115,080                $ 3.39

Conversion Costs

Labor + Overheads ( 1.48 * 34,000)=       $ 50,320               $ 1.48

Units still in process ($ 72072- $ 50320) = $ 19,752              $0.58

Total cost to be accounted for                   $ 187,152                $ 5.54

maria [59]

Answer: b. The company did not define its business in terms of the benefits customers seek.

Explanation:

In order for a business to make money, it needs to provide its customers with what they want not what the company wants the customers to want.

In this scenario, people switched to shampoos that could be used by people of all ages instead of just small children because this is what they wanted but not what the company provided. If the company had defined its business in terms of what their customers wanted, they would have made an all age shampoo which would have been bought.
