Avalon now employs 35 and plans to hire 15 more. Its payroll will climb by 30 percent to 40 percent. The new CEO has executed an ambitious agenda that includes the move to a larger space, which will increase the rent from $3,500 to $10,000 a month Source: CNN, March 24, 2008

Avalon's decision to __________ is a long run decision.

A. Move to Larger Space

B. Hire 15 more employees

Answer:

Option A. Move to Larger Space

Explanation:

The decision that alters only a single variable factor is considered as a short run decision. Labor, electricity usage, increased production are examples of variable factors. This means that increase in employees is a short run decision.

On the other hand, decision to increase or decrease the fixed factors are considered as long run decision because it is difficult to alter the decision and if we do so, then we will encounter heavy losses for a long period of time. Long run decision includes selling or purchasing or leasing of property, plant and equipment are considered as fixed factors.

In this case, Avalon is considering to move to a larger space which will result in significant increae in fixed cost. Hence it is fixed factor and is long run decision. Hence Option A is correct here.

of $1 factor for year 5

10% 3.7908

12% 3.6048

14% 3.4331

Calculate the internal rate of return to determine whether it should accept this project.

The project should be accepted because it will earn more than 14%.

The project should be accepted because it will earn more than 10%.

The project will earn more than 12% but less than 14%. At a hurdle rate of 14%, the project should be rejected.

The project should be rejected because it will earn less than 14%.

The project should be rejected because it will not earn exactly 14%.

Answer : The IRR of the project is 15.24%.

The project should be accepted since it will earn more than 14%.

The NPV at 10% is $ 12351.6

The NPV at 12% is $7329.6

The NPV at 14% is 2693.7

Since NPV is positive at 14%, we may safely conclude that the IRR of the project is greater than 14%.

The NPV at 15% is 90,508.19

The NPV at 16% is 88,405.93

By interpolation, we can determine that the IRR of the project is 15.24%.

Contact [7]

Answer: b. decomposition

Explanation:

Decomposition is a project management technique that takes the entire project scope and all project deliverables and breaks them down into smaller components which makes it easy to manage.

However, decomposition may lead to more work without much value for the time spent and inefficient use of resources which will eventually lead to decreased work efficiency.

It involves:

1. Gathering of information on project deliverables to evaluate any related risks

2. Start the breakdown process at the highest level.

3. Decompose the higher levels into lower level detailed components.

4. Verify the degree of decomposition of the work if it is necessary and sufficient.
