Granfield Company has a piece of manufacturing equipment with a book value of $44,000 and a remaining useful life of four years.
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

$26,000

Explanation:

The calculation of Net increase or decrease in income on replacement is shown below:-

Net savings in Variable cost for 4 years = Variable manufacturing costs × Life

= $19,800 × 4

= $79,200

Net Investment to be made in New machine = Initial investment of new machine - Traded in value of old machine

= $128,000 - $22,800

= $105,200

Net financial disadvantage of replacement = Net savings in Variable cost for 4 years - Net Investment to be made in New machine

= $79,200 - $105,200

= $26,000

So, for computing the net financial disadvantage of replacement we simply applied the above formula.

A stock has had the following year-end prices and dividends: Year Price Dividend 1 $ 43.37 - 2 48.35 $ .60 3 57.27 .63 4 45.35 .
RideAnS [48]

Answer:

geometric mean return = 1.2%

arithmetic mean return = 1.21%

Explanation:

Year            Price            Dividend              Yearly return

1                  $43.37                 -                            0

2                 $48.35            $0.60                      1.24%

3                 $57.27            $0.63                       1.1%

4                 $45.35            $0.80                       1.76%

5                 $52.27            $0.85                       1.63%

6                  $61.35            $0.93                       1.52%

geometric mean return = [(1 + 0) x (1 + 0.0124) x (1 + 0.011) x (1 + 0.0176) x (1 + 0.0163) x (1 + 0.0152)]¹/⁶ - 1 = 1.012 - 1 = 0.012 = 1.2%

arithmetic mean return = (0% + 1.24% + 1.1% + 1.76% + 1.63% + 1.52%) / 6 = 7.25% / 6 = 1.21%

makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

Annual rate of inflation = [(215.9 - 210.2) / 210.2] * 100

Annual rate of inflation = 2.7%

Real income change = Nominal income change - inflation rate

Janice Real income change = 4% – 2.7%

Janice Real income change = 1.3%

This means Janice's real income did increase by 1.3%.

Jeff Real income change = 2% – 2.7%

Jeff Real income change = -0.7%

This means Jeff's real income did decrease by 0.7%.
