Answer:
c. It should process further because the reduction in the cost of the trees is irrelevant.
Explanation:
For the purpose of this Decision,
Benefit of processing further = Sales Value after processing – Sale Value before processing – Further Processing costs
Cost of acquiring trees is a sunk cost already incurred and hence is not relevant
Hence, benefit of processing = (0.80-0.20)*350 – 50
= $160
Hence, the answer is
c. It should process further because the reduction in the cost of the trees is irrelevant.

Answer:
$39,220
Explanation:
The maturity value of the note receivable on June 30, 2012
= Principal + Interest
= $40,000 + $40,000 x 6%
= $40,000 + $2,400
= $ 42,400
The note is discounted on September 30, 2011. Time period remaining to go till maturity as on September 30, 2011
= 12 - 3 months ( July, Aug and Sep)
= 9 months.
Amount of deduction
= $ 42,400 x 10% x 9/12
= $ 3,180
Finally, the Cash received by Ireland will be
= Maturity value - Discount
= $42,400 - $ 3,180
= $39,220
