Jack is considering adding toys to his general store. He estimates the cost of toy inventory will be $4,200. The remodeling and

shelving costs are estimated at $1,500. Toy sales are expected to produce net annual cash inflows of $1,200, $1,500, $1,600, and $1,750 over the next four years, respectively. Should Jack add toys to his merchandise if he requires a three-year payback period

Answer:

No. The duration for payback is 3.8 years.

Explanation:

The payback period indicates the time required to recover the funds invested in a project through accumulated cash flow.

The total investment amounts to $4,200 + $1,500 = $5,700.

Refer to the attached image for a detailed breakdown of how the payback period was determined.

The payback period is calculated as 3 years + 1400/1750 = 3.8 years.

Since 3.8 years exceeds the desired 3-year payback period, Jack should not proceed with the project.

I hope my answer is helpful.

Landor Appliance Corporation makes and sells electric fans. Each fan regularly sells for $42. The following cost data per fan is
arsen [2965]

Response:

Minimum selling price= $28

Reasoning:

Based on the information provided:

Direct materials $8

Direct labor $9

Variable manufacturing costs= $7

Landor has received a special order for 25,000 fans destined for an overseas buyer.

The only incurred selling cost for this order will be $4 per fan for shipping.

Given that this is a special request and there is available capacity, fixed costs will not be considered in this analysis.

The minimum price needed equals the total variable cost per unit. It is not a sustainable price long-term.

Variable cost per unit= 8 + 9 + 7 + 4= $28

[[TAG_55]]Minimum selling price= $28[[TAG_56]]

Policy 1: The price at the end of year 4 is calculated as D5/(rs-g) = 3 /(.12-.02) = 3/.10 = $30 per share. The current price is determined using PVF12%,4* Price at year 4 =.63552 * 30 = $19.07 per share. Policy 2: The price at the end of year 4 is D5/(rs-g) = 2 /(.12-.06) = 3/.06 = $50 per share. The current price is then calculated as PVF12%,4* Price at year 4 =.63552 * 50 = $31.78 per share. Policy 2 should be favored as it offers a higher market price per share.

P(x) = -30x^2 + 9000x - 567000. Explanation: Initially, we must recall the components of a Profit function. The profit of a business is equivalent to its revenue (R(x)) minus its costs (C(x)). There are two elements: 1. Revenue: defined as the number of units sold multiplied by the price, where x indicates the price charged and Q(x) reflects the number of shirts sold. 2. Cost: The cost function is directly provided in the prompt. Aggregating these elements yields the complete profit function.

A standard work year is 2000 hours at the Luther Mill and it takes about an hour and a half to fill a customer order. The manage
arsen [2965]

Response:

Clarification:

Last year's customer orders totaled 15000

Predicted orders for next year with a 15% rise = 15000 x 1.15 = 17250

Each customer order takes 1.5 hours to fulfill

Total time needed to satisfy customer orders = 17250 x 1.5 = 25875

Knowing that the standard work year comprises 2000 hours

Hence, the effective work year with a 2% capacity cushion

= Standard work year x ( 1 – Capacity cushion %/100)

= 2000 x 0.98  = 1960 hours

Workers required by manager

= Total time needed for orders / effective work year

= 25875 / 1960  = 13.20, rounded to 13

Thus, the manager will require 13 workers next year
