Cost-based transfer pricing and market-based transfer pricing are the methods that usually used in establishing a transfer price.
The cost-based pricing is used determine the price of the product by the method of calculation. It is the best way the company can maximize profit.
The market-based pricing it when the company will look for the other product with similar price and evaluate it.
Answer:
7 years (to the nearest year)
Explanation:
Given that;
A = amount
P= principal
t = time
r = rate
A =3P(given in the question)
Formula for compound interest;
A = P(1 + r)^t
Substituting values;
3P = P(1 + 18/100)^t
3P/P= (1.18)^t
3 = (1.18)^t
log 3 = t log 1.18
t = log 3/log 1.18
t = 0.4771/0.0719
t = 6.6 years
t = 7 years (to the nearest year)
Keeping the appropriate cash flow in the cash flow register, using a financial calculator, NPV should be calculated for taking the decision.
Answer: According to the NPV calculated, Chen should buy a new machine.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Cash outflow = $40000
Increase in annual after-tax cash flows : CF = $9000
Place the cash flow on a time line:
0 1 2 10
I 10 I I . . . I
-110000 19000 19000 19000
With a financial calculator, input the appropriate cash flow into the cash flow register, input I/YR = 10, and then solve for NPV. The answer for NPV is $6746.78.
Thus, Chen should buy a new machine.
Okay so rewards and penalties make people make better decisions. So like if I don't get questions wrong on a test I receive $5 from my parents, but if I fail a test I'm grounded for a week. So I study more to get money. (this is not actually me just making an example). Rewards make people want to do better, and so do penalties. I don't want to do bad and get punished for it.
