Answer:

The net present value of the Sister Pools project is $12,057

Explanation:

Net Present value = Present value of cash inflows - Present value of cash outflows

Net Present value = $18,000 * PVAF (10.2%, 7 years) - $75,000

Net Present value = $18,000 * 4.8365 - 75,000

Net Present value = $87,057 - $75,000

Net Present value = $12,057

Note: The cost of capital is taken for similar business when a new business is started

This is section 3.8 problem 30: a motel owner observes that when a room is priced at $60 per day, all 80 rooms of the motel are
inna [77]

Answer:

see explanations

Explanation:

First, for 80 room charged at $60 per room ,all rooms are occupied

Let the demand function, expressed by p , the price in dollars charged for each room per day, as a function of x as,

p(x)=$60x ------------where x in the number of rooms

When the price per room is increased by $3, the demand function will be;

p(x)=$63x

Maintenance per room after price increase will be;

p(x)=$16x

This means: $63x -$60x=$16x

3*80 p(x)=16*80

p(x)=(16*80)/(3*80) =5.33

Due to price increase the number of rooms occupied reduced by 5 rooms to 75 rooms. Because of unoccupied rooms bringing no revenue the maintenance cost increased. The demand for room decreased.

A On December 31, 2017, State Construction Inc. signs a contract with the state of West Virginia Department of Transportation to
larisa [96]

Answer:

2018: $78 million

2019: $468 million

2020: $234 million

Explanation:

Given that State Construction incurred costs as follows:

Year                         Cost

2018                         $60 million

2019                         $360 million

2020                        $180 million

Total cost = $60 million + $360 million + $180 million = $600 million

Percentage to total cost ratio is:

For 2018 = $60 million / $600 million = 0.1,

For 2019 = $360 million / $600 million = 0.6,

For 2020 = $180 million / $600 million = 0.3.

Revenue = Percentage to total cost ratio × Contract price.

Contract price = $780 million

For 2018, Revenue = 0.1 × $780 million = $78 million

For 2019, Revenue = 0.6 × $780 million = $468 million

For 2020, Revenue = 0.3 × $780 million = $234 million

Suppose a firm is producing in the long run. When it produces 4,000 units of output, its total cost is $8,000. When it produces
Scilla [17]

Answer:

increasing then decreasing

Explanation:

production level            total cost             average total cost

4,000                               $8,000                    $2.00

4,200                               $8,200                     $1.95

4,400                               $8,800                    $2.00

Returns to scale measure the change in productivity, or how much input is needed to produce a unit of output.

  • increasing returns to scale: output increases in a greater proportion than inputs
  • constant returns to scale: output increases in the same proportion as inputs
  • decreasing returns to scale: output increases in a lower proportion than inputs

Since first the average total cost decreased, total output increased in a greater proportion than inputs ⇒ increasing returns of scale. But then the situation reversed and total output increased in a lower proportion than inputs ⇒ decreasing returns of scale.

vichka [17]

Answer:

Revenue - March = $160

Explanation:

The accrual principle in accounting states that the revenues for a period should match the expenses for that particular period and any revenue or expense should be recorded in the period to which it relates to. This means that the upfront fee received by Fit Co. is a liability and should not be recorded as a revenue until it is earned. So, by providing two sessions in the month of March, Fit Co. has earned revenue for 2 sessions out of the twelve. Thus, at the end of March, Fit Co. should record a revenue of,

Revenue - march = 960 * 2/12 = $160
