A 50-kilowatt gas turbine has an investment cost of $40,000. It costs another $14,000 for shipping, insurance, site preparation, fuel lines, and fuel storage tanks. The operation and maintenance expense for this turbine is $450 per year. Additionally, the hourly fuel expense for running the turbine is $7.50 per hour, and the turbine is expected to operate 3,000 hours each year. The cost of dismantling and disposing of the turbine at the end of its 8-year life is $8,000.

Required:
a. If the MARR is 15% per year, what is the annual equivalent life-cycle cost of the gas turbine?
b. What percent of annual life-cycle cost is related to fuel?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The annual equivalent life-cycle cost (AW) of gas turbine = -$35,569.8

The percentage  fuel cost = 63.25%

Explanation:

From the given information:

Let's start with the initial investment cost, which can be expressed by using the formula:

Initial investment cost = Investment cost of turbine + cost including shipping,  insurance, site preparation, fuel lines, and fuel storage tanks.)

Initial investment cost = $40,000 + $14000

Initial investment cost = $54000

However, The annual fuel expense = hourly fuel expense for running turbine × total number of operating hour per year

The annual fuel expense = $7.50 × 3000

The annual fuel expense = $22,500

Therefore, the total operating cost per year = operating & maintenance cost per year + fuel expenses per year

the total operating cost per year = $(450 + 22500)

the total operating cost per year = $22,950

If the minimum acceptable rate of return MARR is 15%, then the number of years is 8 years

Therefore, the annual equivalent life-cycle cost (AC) of the gas turbine can be computed as follows:

AC(15%) = -54000 (A/P, 15%, 8) - $22950-$8000(A/F,15%,8)

where;

(A/P,15%,8) = annual worth factor of a present worth

(A/F,15%,8) = annual worth factor of future worth for 8 years and 15% interest rate.

If we use the discrete compounding table when i = 15%;

Value of (A/P,15%,8) = 0.229

Value of (A/F,15%,8) = 0.0729

AC(15%) = -$54,000(0.2229) - $22,950 -$8000(0.0729)

AC(15%) = -$12,036.6 -$22950 -$583.2

AC(15%) = -$35,569.8

Therefore, the annual equivalent life-cycle cost (AW) of gas turbine = -$35,569.8

b.

The percentage of the annual life-cycle cost related to the fuel can be calculated by using the formula :

[tex]\mathbf{\% \ fuel \ cost = \dfrac{fuel \ cost \ per \ year}{total \ annual \ life \ cycle \ cost }\times 100\%}[/tex]

Replacing our values from above, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{\% \ fuel \ cost = \dfrac{\$22500}{\$35,569.8}\times 100\%}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{\% \ fuel \ cost = 0.6325\times 100\%}[/tex]

The percentage  fuel cost = 63.25%

Answer 2

Based on the given information, the annual equivalent life-cycle cost of the gas turbine is "$35,569.80," while the percent of the annual life-cycle cost is related to fuel is "65.87%."

This is based on the calculation below:

Given that: Initial investment cost => Investment cost of turbine + cost including shipping, insurance, site preparation, fuel lines, and fuel storage tanks.

Hence, we have the following:

Initial investment cost = $40,000 + $14,000;

=> Initial investment cost = $54,000.

On the other hand, The annual fuel expense = hourly fuel expense for running turbine × total number of operating hour per year;

Thus, we have the following:

The annual fuel expense = $7.50 × 3,000;

The annual fuel expense = $22,500.

Also, since, the total operating cost per year = operating & maintenance cost per year + fuel expenses per year;

We have the following:

the total operating cost per year = $(450 + 22,500);

the total operating cost per year = $22,950.

Therefore, given that the minimum acceptable rate of return MARR is 15%, then the number of years is 8 years.

Then, the annual equivalent life-cycle cost (AC) of the gas turbine is measured as:

AC (15%) = -54,000 (A/P, 15%, 8) - $22,950 - $8,000 (A/F,15%,8);

Here, we have the following details;

(A/P,15%,8) = annual worth factor of a present worth;

(A/F,15%,8) = annual worth factor of future worth for 8 years and 15% interest rate.

This, given that we use the discrete compounding table when i = 15%;

We have the following:

Value of (A/P,15%,8) = 0.229;

Value of (A/F,15%,8) = 0.0729.

AC (15%) = -$54,000 (0.2229) - $22,950 -$8,000 (0.0729);

AC(15%) = -$12,036.60 -$22,950 -$583.20;

AC(15%) = -$35,569.80.

Hence, the annual equivalent life-cycle cost (AW) of gas turbine = $35,569.80.

Similarly, the percent of the annual life-cycle cost is related to fuel is measured as = ($35,569.8 ÷ $54,000) × 100

=> 65.87%.

Hence, in this case, it is concluded that the lifecycle cost is essential when measuring the productivity of a project.

The fact that generally accepted accounting principles allow companies flexibility in choosing between certain allocation methods can make it difficult for a financial analyst to compare periodic performance from firm to firm. Suppose you were a financial analyst trying to compare the performance of two companies. Company A uses the double-declining-balance depreciation method. Company B uses the straight-line method. You have the following information taken from the 12/31/2021 year-end financial statements for Company B:


Income Statement
Depreciation expense $12,500
Balance Sheet

Assets:
Plant and equipment, at cost $125,000
Less: Accumulated depreciation (50,000)
Net $75,000

You also determine that all of the assets constituting the plant and equipment of Company B were acquired at the same time, and that all of the $125,000 represents depreciable assets. Also, all of the depreciable assets have the same useful life and residual values are zero.

Required:
a. In order to compare performance with Company A, estimate what B's depreciation expense would have been for 2021?
b. If Company B decided to switch depreciation methods in 2021 from the straight line to the double-declining-balance method, prepare the 2021 journal entry to record depreciation for the year

Answers

Answer:

a. Company B's depreciation expense for 2021 is $12,800  

b. Accumulated Depreciation (Dr.) $23,800

Plant and equipment (Cr.) $23,800

Explanation:

The depreciation expense of 2021 will be $12,800. The cost of plant and equipment is $125,000.

Depreciation 2018 : $125,000 * 10% = 12,500 * 2 = $25,000

2019 : $125,000 - $25000 = $100,000 * 10% * 2 = $20,000

2020: $100,000 - $20,000 = $80,000 * 10% * 2 = $16,000

2021 : $80,000 - $16,000 = 64,000 * 10% * 2 = $12,800

Due to use, wear and tear, or obsolescence, the monetary worth of an object decreases with time. Depreciation is the term used to describe this reduction.

A.Company B's depreciation expense for 2021 is $12,800  

B. Accumulated Depreciation (Dr.) $23,800

Plant and equipment (Cr.) $23,800

Solution:-

The depreciation expense of 2021 will be $12,800. The cost of plant and equipment is $125,000.

Depreciation 2018 : $125,000 * 10% = 12,500 * 2 = $25,000

2019 : $125,000 - $25000 = $100,000 * 10% * 2 = $20,000

2020: $100,000 - $20,000 = $80,000 * 10% * 2 = $16,000

2021 : $80,000 - $16,000 = 64,000 * 10% * 2 = $12,800

If annualized interest in the U.S. and France are 9% and 13%, respectively, and the spot value of the French franc is $0.1109, then at what 180-day forward rate will interest rate parity hold

Answers

Answer:

0.1130 FF/$

Explanation:

Spot value = 0.1109 FF/$

Interest rate in US for 180 days = 9%*180/365 = 0.044384

Interest rate in France for 180 days = 13%*180/365 = 0.06411

Forward rate = Spot value*(1+Interest rate in US)/(1+Interest rate in France)

Forward rate = 0.1109*(1+0.06411)/(1+0.044384)

Forward rate = 0.1109*(1.06411/1.044384)

Forward rate = 0.1109* 1.018888      

Forward rate = 0.1130 FF/$

You are an administrator working for the Maine Department of Environmental Protection, a state administrative agency. You are tasked with implementing a new and controversial pollution control rule. The media will be watching closely to ensure all required procedures are followed. Local citizens are requesting that the rule be implemented immediately and without a hearing because, they argue, the need for controls are so acute. A California environmental group is requesting that you consider the impacts of the rule on their state. A manufacturing lobbyist has asked you to decrease relevant pollution standards in the rule by 90%, even though you have significant evidence that current pollution levels are dangerously high. Assuming that Maine administrative law, including the Administrative Procedure Act, is substantially the same as federal law discussed in this chapter, evaluate your responses to these requests in light of rules you need to follow. You want to avoid having your rule held unlawful and set aside by a court.

Answers

Answer:

the answer to this question has been well explained. Thank you!

Explanation:

the environmental protection department has to apply the pollution control rule through a good examination of the effect it would have on all stakeholders if it is passed.

local citizens: for this group the best way to respond to their request is by making sure that the rule is applied in a timely manner. they have to be given the assurance that environmental implications would be reduced to the highest possible extent by this rule and that this rule would prove to be effective.

california environmental group: the request of this group is valid and they have to get the assurance that the effect of rule on the state have been studied well enough and that policies to lower environmental effects would be put in place as much as possible.

manufacturing lobbyist: theirs is a critical request. passing the rule would obviously increase necessary pollution standards. to ensure the lobbyist is made awarebof this, administrative agency has to have a meeting with the lobbyist and the person has to be made aware of the new position and current standards that are obtainable to organizations that are in manufacturing, as well the opportunities that are open to them. it is good to do this clearly in other to avoid any future confrontations of any kind.

How has the introduction of these markets, technologies and resources affected the lifestyle of the people of Cuba

Answers

Answer:

he economy of Cuba is a largely planned economy dominated by state-run enterprises. The government of Cuba owns and operates most industries and most of the labor force is employed by the state. Following the fall of the Soviet Union in 1991, the ruling Communist Party of Cuba encouraged the formation of worker co-operatives and self-employment. However, greater private property and free market rights were granted by the 2019 Constitution.[10][11] It has also been acknowledged that foreign market investment in various Cuban economic sectors increased before 2019 as well.[12][13]

As of 2000, public-sector employment was 76% and private-sector employment (mainly composed of self-employment) was 23% - compared to the 1981 ratio of 91% to 8%.[14] Investment is restricted and requires approval by the government. The government sets most prices and rations goods to citizens. In 2016 Cuba ranked 68th out of 182 countries, with a Human Development Index of 0.775, much higher than its GDP per capita rank (95th).[15]As of 2012, the country's public debt comprised 35.3% of GDP, inflation (CDP) was 5.5%, and GDP growth was 3%.[16]

Housing and transportation costs are low. Cubans receive government-subsidized education, healthcare and food subsidies.[17]

The country achieved a more even distribution of income after the Cuban Revolution of 1953–1959,[citation needed] which was followed by an economic embargo by the United States (1960- ). During the Cold War period, the Cuban economy was heavily dependent on subsidies from the Soviet Union, valued at $65 billion in total from 1960 to 1990 (over three times as the entirety of U.S. economic aid to Latin America), an average of $2.17 billion a year.[18] This accounted for anywhere between 10% and 40% of Cuban GDP, depending on the year.[19] While the massive Soviet subsidies did enable Cuba's enormous state budget, they did not lead to a more advanced or sustainable Cuban economy; although described by economists as "a relatively highly developed Latin American export economy" in 1959 and the early 1960s, Cuba's basic economic structure changed very little between then and 1990. Tobacco products such as cigars and cigarettes were the only manufactured products among Cuba's leading exports, and even these were produced by a preindustrial process. The Cuban economy remained inefficient and over-specialized in a few highly subsidized commodities provided by the Soviet bloc countries.[20] Following the collapse of the Soviet Union, Cuba's GDP declined by 33% between 1990 and 1993, partially due to the loss of Soviet subsidies[21] and a crash in sugar prices in the early 1990s. It rebounded in the early 2000s due to a combination of marginal liberalization of the economy and heavy subsidies from the friendly government of Venezuela, which provided Cuba with low-cost oil and other subsidies worth up to 12% of Cuban GDP annually.[22] Cuba retains high levels of healthcare and education.[23]

Joker stock has a sustainable growth rate of 10 percent, ROE of 12 percent, and dividends per share of $1.30. If the PE ratio is 17.0, what is the value of a share of stock? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

Answers

Answer:value of a share of stock=$132.57

Explanation:

Sustainable growth rate =  Retention ratio x ROE

= ROE X (1-Payout ratio)

10% = 12% x 1-payout ratio

10%/12%= 1-payout ratio

0.8333= 1-payout ratio

payout ratio= 1- 0.833=0.1667= 16.67%

Dividend payout ratio= dividend per share/Earnings per share

16.67%=$1.30/ earning per share

Earnings per share =1.30/ 16.67%=  $7.7984

Value of a share of stock using the P/E ratio

Answers

Answer:

1. Materials = 46,180 and Conversion Costs = 39,700

2.Materials = $5.11 and Conversion Costs = $10.66

3.Transferred Out = $614,715 and Ending work in process = $44,467

Explanation:

First, calculate the number of units completed and transferred to finished goods

Number of units completed and transferred to finished goods = Beginning Inventory Units + Units Started during the Period - Ending Inventory Units

Therefore,

Units completed and transferred =  1,880 + 44,300 - 7,200

                                                         =   38,980

Calculation of Equivalent Units of Production with respect to Materials and Conversion Costs

1. Materials

Ending Work In Process  (7,200 × 100%)                            =   7,200

Completed and Transferred (38,980 × 100%)                    = 38,980

Equivalent Units of Production with respect to Materials =  46,180

2. Conversion Costs

Ending Work In Process  (7,200 × 10%)                              =       720

Completed and Transferred (38,980 × 100%)                    = 38,980

Equivalent Units of Production with respect to Materials = 39,700

Calculation of  the unit costs for materials and conversion costs for the month.

Unit Cost = Total Cost ÷ Total Equivalent Units

1. Materials

Unit Cost = ($21,900 + $214,080) ÷ 46,180

                = $5.11 (2 decimal places)

2. Conversion Costs

Unit Cost = ($37,162 + $127,600 + $258,440 ) ÷ 39,700

                = $10.66 (2 decimal places)

3. Total Unit Cost

Total Unit Cost = Materials + Conversion Costs

                         = $5.11 + $10.66

                         = $15.77

Calculation of costs to be assigned to the units transferred out and in process.

Transferred Out = Units Completed and Transferred × Total Unit Cost

                           = 38,980 × $15.77

                           = $614,715

Ending work in process = Materials Cost + Conversion Costs

                                        = ($5.11 × 7,200) + ($10.66 × 720)

                                        = $44,467

DelRay Foods must purchase a new gumdrop machine. Two machines are available. Machine 7745 has a first cost of $8,000, an estimated life of 10 years, a salvage value of $1,000, and annual operating costs estimated at $0.01 per 1,000 gumdrops. Machine A37Y has a first cost of $8,000, a life of 10 years, and no salvage value. Its annual operating costs will be $260 regardless of the number of gumdrops produced. MARR is 6%/year, and 30 million gumdrops ware produced each year.
Based on an internal rate of return analysis, which machine should be recommended?

Answers

Answer:

I would recommend Machine 7745

Explanation:

Machine 7745

initial outlay = $8,000

operational costs per year = $300

depreciation cost per year = $700

salvage value (at year 10) = $1,000

total costs per year (1 - 9) = $1,000

total costs year 10 = $0

using an excel spreadsheet, the IRR = 2%. Since you are analyzing costs only, not incremental revenue, then you must select the project with the lowest IRR.

 

Machine A37Y

initial outlay = $8,000

operational costs per year = $260

depreciation cost per year = $800

total costs per year (1 - 10) = $1,060

using an excel spreadsheet, the IRR = 4%

Alpha Industries is considering a project with an initial cost of $8.2 million. The project will produce cash inflows of $1.93 million per year for 6 years. The project has the same risk as the firm. The firm has a pretax cost of debt of 5.67% and a cost of equity of 11.31%. The debt-equity ratio is 0.62 and the tax rate is 21%. What is the net present value of the project

Answers

Answer:

$347,941.73

Explanation:

First, find the Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC). WACC is the minimum return that a project must offer before it can be accepted. It is thus used to discount the future cash flows of a project to its Present Value.

WACC = Ke × E/V + Kd × D/V

where,

Ke = cost of equity

    = 11.31%

E/V = Market Weight of Equity

      = (1/1.62 × 100)

      = 61.73%

Kd = After tax cost of debt

     = 5.67% × ( 1  - 0.21)

     = 4.48 %

D/V = Market Weight of Debt

      = 0.65/1.65 × 100

      = 39.40%

Therefore,

WACC =  11.31% × 0.6773 + 4.48 % × 0.3940

           = 9.43 %

Next, find the net present value of the project using a financial calculator as follows :

CFj -$8,200,000

CFj $1,930,000

CFj $1,930,000

CFj $1,930,000

CFj $1,930,000

CFj $1,930,000

i/yr =  9.43 %

Shift NPV = $347,941.73

The contract drawings prepared by the architect are generally not specific enough to facilitate accurate fabrication of the materials involved. Therefore, to produce the necessary materials for a project, subcontractors and suppliers must provide ________________________ to amplify/clarify the contract drawings.

Answers

Answer:

construction specifications

Explanation:

Construction contracts must always include construction specifications. These specifications refer to what materials, installations and specialized labor is required to perform correctly the building process.

Architects are paid for their blueprints, i.e. their designs. Sometimes an architect can recommend certain materials that fit his/her design, but the contractor is responsible for carrying on the actual construction.

The contractor has to specify which materials will be used and how the construction process will be carried out. E.g. it is not the same to build a house with luxurious materials like expensive floors and ceilings than a normal house.

You want your longtime employees to make sure their retirement plans are best suited for their career stages. You think that most employees make wise investment choices when they join the company. However, you find that few employees make adjustments to their retirement plans as they advance in their careers. You are particularly concerned about employees who have worked at the company for more than ten years and haven't updated their retirement packages. Which of the following statements is most likely to persuade longtime employees to attend the presentation about retirement planning?

a. Choose a retirement package that best matches your career stage. At this presentation,we'll tell you how we can help you manage your longevity risk on your retirement package.
b. Choose a retirement package that best matches your career stage. At this presentation,you'll learn how you can make sure you have enough money for as long as you live.

Answers

Answer:

b. Choose a retirement package that best matches your career stage. At this presentation,you'll learn how you can make sure you have enough money for as long as you live.

Explanation:

In the given scenario we are trying to persuade employees to update their retirement plans to meet the changing situation of their careers.

We want to invite them to a meeting where they can learn the benefits of getting a better retirement plan.

The best approach is to send a message that focuses on them and their role in this process. Not the company's role.

Option B exemplifies this by stating they are learning to how to choose a retirement plan that will provide for them for the rest of their lives.

The other two options uses the statement - we'll tell you how to manage your longevity.

This creates an impression that the company wants to impose their point of view on the employees, and this may not get the expected response from employees.

"What is the allowable MACRS depreciation on Evergreen’s property in the current year if Evergreen does not elect out of bonus depreciation?"

Answers

Answer:

the list of assets is missing, so I looked for a similar question and found the following:

MACRS depreciation for machinery is 10 years, and the depreciation % for the first year using the half year convention is 10% ⇒ depreciation expense = $70,000 x 10% = $7,000

MACRS depreciation for computer equipment is 5 years, and the depreciation % for the first year using the half year convention is 20% ⇒ depreciation expense = $10,000 x 20% = $2,000

MACRS depreciation for the delivery truck is 5 years, and the depreciation % for the first year using the half year convention is 20% ⇒ depreciation expense = $23,000 x 20% = $4,600

MACRS depreciation for furniture is 7 years, and you can use the mid-quarter convention since furniture represents more than 40% of total assets placed in to service. The depreciation % for the first year, second quarter  using the mid-quarter convention is 17.85% (the half year convention depreciation rate is 14.29%) ⇒ depreciation expense = $150,000 x 17.85% = $26,775

total depreciation expense = $40,375

Answers

Answer:

$48,600

Explanation:

Operating Cash flow is the cash generated from operating/trading activities of a firm. It is very important to include only the cash transactions and ignore any non -cash items.

Thus,

Operating Cash flow = $150,500 - $101,900

                                   = $48,600

In the long run, a decrease in the money supply will
decrease real Gross Domestic Product (GDP).
decrease the price level.
increase real Gross Domestic Product (GDP).
increase the price level.

Answers

Answer:

decrease real Gross Domestic Product (GDP).

Explanation:

GDP represents the total value of a country output. The calculation of GDP using the expensive method is identical to that of the aggregate demand. Aggregate demand is the total of government spending, consumer spending, investment, and net exports. Therefore, GDP and aggregate demand are the same.

A decrease in the money supply leads to firms and households having less money to spend. Reduction in disposable income results in reduced consumer spending, which has adverse effects on aggregate demand. Therefore, reduced money supply results in a decline in consumer spending and reduced aggregate demand, leading to a reduction in a country's output.
