For the operation of part R-193, two operations are being considered. The capital investment associated with each operation is identical. Each completed part can be sold at Php 7 per part. Operation 1 produces 2,000 parts per hour. After each hour, the tooling must be adjusted by the machine operator. The adjustment takes 20 minutes. The machine operator for Operation 1 is paid Php350 per hour. Operation 2 produces 1,300 parts per hour, but the tooling needs to be adjusted by the operator only once every two hours. The adjustment takes 30 minutes. The machine operator for Operation 2 is paid Php 192.5 per hour. Assume an 8-hour work day. Further assume all parts produced can be sold. Should operation 1 or Operation 2 be recommended?
A machine was purchased with an amount of P375,000.00 and a modification cost of P100,000.00 after 12 years. It needs regular maintenance that cost P15,850.00 per year. A software renewal cost of P7,433.00 every two years. What is the total capitalized cost that needs to prepare for the acquisition of this asset in pesos given that the interest rate is 0.12 annually?
The capitalized cost of a new printing equipment was found to be P426,000.00.The rate of interest was 12%, with a salvage value of P30,000.00 t the end of a service life of 8 years. Assuming that the cost of perpetual replacement remains constant, determine the original cost of the equipment.
Find the investment rate in (%) in a logging company. It is estimated that it will yield an annual net income of P225000 for 15 years and will have a salvage value of P32000. The purchase price is P1250000. Assuming that the recovered capital can be reinvested at 4%
A small feed mill company is evaluating two alternatives: the purchase of an automatic feed machine and a manual feed machine for a finishing process. The auto-feed machine has an initial cost of Php23,000, an estimated salvage value of Php4,000, and a predicted life of 10 years. One person will operate the machine at a rate of Php24 per hour. The expected output is 8 tons per hour. Annual maintenance and operating cost is expected to be Php3,500. The alternative manual feed machine has a first cost of Php8,000, no expected salvage value, a 5-year life, and an output of 6 tons per hour. However, three workers will be required at Php12 per hour each. The machine will have an annual maintenance and operation cost of Php1,500. All projects are expected to generate a return of 10% per year. How many tons per year must be finished in order to justify the higher purchase cost of the auto-feed machine?
A fixed capital investment of ₱9,000,000 is required for a proposed manufacturing plant and an estimated working capital of ₱2,000,000. Annual depreciation is estimated to be 10% of the fixed capital investment. Annual revenue is ₱2292,000. Determine the payback period (in years) of the proposed manufacturing plant.
Another answer. A fixed capital investment of 12,000,000 pesos is required for a production plant and an estimated working capital of 3,000,000 pesos. Annual depreciation is estimated to be 15% of the capital investment. Determine the rate of return on the total investment and the length of time to recover it if the annual profit is 2,800,000 pesos. Show Complete solution on a clear paper.

ABC Electronics must buy a piece of equipment to place electronic components on the printed circuit boards it assembles. The proposed equipment has a 10-year leife with no scrap value. The supplier has given JT several purchase alternatives. The first is to purchase the equipment for $850,000 (Option A). The second is to pay for the equipment in 10 equal installments of $135,000 each, starting one year from now (Option B). The third is to pay $215,000 now and $95,000 at the end of each year for the next 10 years (Option C). Which alternative should JT choose if their MARR is 11% per year? Use an IRR comparison approach. Where JT Electronics must purchase one of the pieces of equipment, do not consider the do nothing option (Perform all calculations using 5 significant figures and round your answer to one decimal place.

1. Rylai is the sole proprietor of a small lawn-care service. Last year, she purchased an eight-horsepower chipper-shredder to make mulch out of small tree branches and leaves. At the time it cost Php760. She expects that the value of the chipper-shredder will decline by a constant amount each year over the next six years. At the end of six years, she thinks that it will have a salvage value of Php100. Construct a table that gives the book value of the chipper-shredder at the end of each year, for six years. Also indicate the accumulated depreciation at the end of each year. Year Depreciation Book Value Accumulated Charge Depreciation 760 1 3 4 5 6 100
