Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

B. $14,600

Explanation:

The annual cash inflows associated with the machine can be found by the following expression, where 'r' is the company's discount rate of 12% and 'n' is the useful life of the equipment of 18 years:

-investment+ X*\frac{(1 - (1 + r)^{-n})}{r} =NPV\\\\-\$100,000 + X*\frac{(1 - (1 + r)^{-n})}{r} =\$5,850\\-\$100,000 + X*\frac{(1 - (1 + 0.12)^{-18})}{0.12} =\$5,850\\X=\frac{\$105,850}{7.25} \\X=\$14,600

Annual cash inflows are $14,600.

sweet [91]

Answer:

The planned purchases are given as  $34,500 while the value of OTB is $28,900

Explanation:

The Planned purchases is given as

Planned Sales + Planned Markdowns + Planned End of Month Inventory - Planned Beginning of Month Inventory = Planned Purchases

So here the planned sales are 25000

The planned Reductions are 1500

The End of Month inventory is 88000

The Beginning of Month Inventory is 80000 So the value is given as

25000+1500+88000-80000= Planned Purchases

Planned Purchases =34500

The OTB is given as

OTB=Planned Purchases-Commitment

OTB=34500-5600

OTB=28900
