Answer: a. The drone option should be chosen because it is the least expensive in terms of both fixed cost and variable cost.
b. A and 20000, B and 20000
Explanation:
a. From the information provided, the correct option is option B "The drone option should be chosen because it is the least expensive in terms of both fixed cost and variable cost".
This statement is wrong has the drone has the largest fixed cost and variable cost. It's fixed cost of $100,000 is more than that of $70,000 and $60,000 for others.
b. A and 20000, B and 20000

Answer:
The alternative that should be chosen assuming identical replacement is:
Alternative B.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Alternatives:
A B
First Cost $5,000 $9,200
Uniform Annual Benefit $1,750 $1,850
Useful life, in years 4 8
Rate of return 7% 7%
Annuity factor 3.387 5.971
Present value of annuity $5,927.25 $11,046.35
Net cash flow $927.25 $1,846.35
b) Alternative B yields a higher return than Alternative A. Since the two alternatives are based on the same rate of return, Alternative B will bring in a higher annual benefit, even when discounted to the present value.
I think that answer is 1.5
Answer:
phases in the sequence of Recession, trough, expansion and Peak
Explanation:
we know that 4 phases of a business cycle are
peak and downturn (recession) and trough and upturn (expansion)
top of cycle is called peak
and boom is a very high peak
recession where conomic activity is falling from the peak
and when decline persist for more than 2 consecutive quarters that is recession
and The bottom of the recession is trough
so we know business cycle is a economic model that describe fluctuation in economic activity
and that includes production of goods and service and business cycle go through its phases in the sequence of Recession, trough, expansion and Peak
Political, economic, social and technological
