It will generate a cash inflow of $575,000 at the end of the first year, and the cash inflows are projected to grow at 8 percent per year for the next 10 years. After 11 years, the mine will be abandoned. Abandonment costs will be $123,000 at the end of year 11.

Answer:

19.07%

Explanation:

Internal rate of return is the discount rate that equates the after-tax cash flows from an investment to the amount invested

IRR can be calculated with a financial calculator  

Cash flow in year 0 = $-3,400,000

Cash flow in year 1 = $575,000  

Cash flow in year 2 = $575,000 x 1.08  

Cash flow in year 3 =  $575,000 x 1.08^2

Cash flow in year 4 =  $575,000 x 1.08^3

Cash flow in year 5 =  $575,000 x 1.08^4

Cash flow in year 6 =  $575,000 x 1.08^5

Cash flow in year 7 =  $575,000 x 1.08^6

Cash flow in year 8 =  $575,000 x 1.08^7

Cash flow in year 9 =  $575,000 x 1.08^8

Cash flow in year 10 =  $575,000 x 1.08^9

Cash flow in year 11 =  ($575,000 x 1.08^10) - $123,000

IRR = 19.07%

To find the IRR using a financial calculator:

1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

2. After inputting all the cash flows, press the IRR button and then press the compute button.

  • <u>Ending inventory = 1,800 units</u>

<u>Explanation</u>:

a. Cost Of Goods Sold Using LIFO

<u>1. Sale, March 14 (1,380 units)</u>

- from May 1 purchase)

1,130 units at $90= 1130*90= $101,700

+

Vijay Company reports the following information regarding its production costs. Direct materials $9.60 per unit Direct labor $19
solong [7]

Answer:

Unitary cost= $46.4 per unit

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Direct materials $9.60 per unit

Direct labor $19.60 per unit

Overhead costs for the year:

Variable overhead $9.60 per unit

Fixed overhead $121,600

Units produced 16,000 units

Under absorption costing, the fixed overhead is allocated to the cost of the product. Therefore, we need to calculate the unitary fixed overhead.

Unitary fixed overhead= 121,600/16,000= $7.6

Now, we can calculate the unitary cost of production:

Unitary cost= direct material + direct labor + total overhead

Unitary cost= 9.6 + 19.6 + 9.6 + 7.6= $46.4 per unit

On January 1, 2018, Lumos Company purchased a machine for $70,200. Lumos uses straight-line depreciation and estimates an eight-
jeka94

Answer:

Gain= $4,200

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Purchase price (2018)= $70,200

Salvage value= $5,400

Useful life= 8 years

Selling price= $42,000

<u>First, we need to calculate the depreciation expense and accumulated depreciation:</u>

Annual depreciation= (original cost - salvage value)/estimated life (years)

Annual depreciation= (70,200 - 5,400) / 8

Annual depreciation= $8,100

Accumulated depreciation (ending 2021)= 8,100*4= $32,400

<u>If the selling price is higher than the book value, the company gain from the sale. Now, we need to determine the book value.</u>

<u></u>

Book value= purchase price - accumulated depreciation

Book value= 70,200 - 32,400= $37,800

Gain/loss= selling price - book value

Gain/loss= 42,000 - 37,800

Gain= $4,200
