The value of the press that  Webster's Words should include in the project analysis is $1,500.

The two major considerations in a project analysis are the cost of the project input and the value that the project's output will generate for the entity.

In this scenario, the current book value of the press is <em>not relevant</em> in the project analysis. The scrap value should be considered as it produces a value that can reduce the project's cost and not the <em>committed or sunk cost</em> of the old press.

Data and Calculations:

Maximum scrap value of press = $1,500

Initial cost of the press eight years ago = $163,000

Current book value = $2,100

Relevant value of the press = $1,500 (scrap value)

Thus, the value of the press in the project analysis is $1,500.

k0ka [10]

Answer:

a. If two similar properties are for sale, a buyer will purchase the cheaper of the two.

Explanation:

The principle of substitution justifies the idea that the maximum value of a property will be set by the selling price of an equally valuable and desirable substitute property. In this case of property sale, if an area has two similar houses and one is being sold for $912,000 and the other is priced at $105,000, buyers will most likely go for the cheaper one. There is no reason to pay more money if they will be getting a similar property at low cost.

dezoksy [38]

Answer:

$4,265.55

Explanation:

Future value = $120,000

Interest rate (i) = 5%

Annual deposit = ?

Time period (n) = 18 year

Since deposit are to be made at the beginning of each year, hence the relevant factor table to be used is future value annuity due factor table.

Future value = Annual deposit x future value annuity due factor (i%, n)

120,000 = Annual deposit x FVADF (5%, 18period)

120,000 = Annual deposit x 28.13238

Annual deposit = 120,000/28.13238

=$4,265.547

=$4,265.55
