Environmental scientists David Pimentel, Rodolfo Zuniga, and Doug Morrison of Cornell University reviewed scientific estimates for the economic and ecological costs imposed by introduced and invasive species in the United States. They found that, as of 2005, approximately 50,000 species had been introduced in the United States and that these accountedfor over $120 billion in economic costs each year. These costs include direct losses and damage, as well as costs required to control the species. (The researchers did not quantify monetary estimates for losses of biodiversity, ecosystem services, and aesthetics, which they said would drive total costs several times higher.) Calculate values missing from the table to determine the number of introduced species of each type of organism and the annual cost that each imposes on our economy. Organisms that damage crop plants are the most costlyof introduced species. Weeds, pathogenic microbes, andarthropods that attack crops together account…

ZCCM-IH is a major supplier of iron ore to the steel industry and the company is the 4th largest supplier of seabome iron ore in the world. The company exports over 34 million tonnes per year. The company's reserves amount to over a billion tonnes. Konkola Copper Mine (Konkola) represented a major expansion mining project for ZCCM-IH. ZCCM-IH is considering a new project with an expected life of three years and is expected to result in an increase in sales revenue of K20 billion in the first year, K30 bilion in the second year and K10 billion in the third year. Operating costs will amount to 70% of sales revenue and the company is required to make an investment in working capital of K6 billion at the beginning of the project, which is recoverable at the end of the life of the project. The cost of the project is K18 billion and the residual value at the end of three years is K11 billion. The required rate of return is 14%. Assuming no taxation. A. Calculate ZCCM-IH project's NPV?

On January 2, 2021, an Australian Copper Exploration Company was investigating the feasibility of two mutually exclusive investment projects. The first prospective investment involved a strip (open-cut) mining operation in South Wales. The second investment also involved the extraction of copper, but this expenditure would be an underground site in Queensland. Preliminary drilling, sampling and analysis of both sites and consultation with geologists, costing the company $3600,000, suggested that both sites have similar copper reserves and useful lives. The copper extraction process for the two types of mines and the equipment required for operation of the mines are very different, however, with the underground mining operation expected to be more complex and difficult. The process of drilling underground also increases the dangers faced by employees, although it is more environmentally friendly than the pollution and soil erosion caused by open-cut mining operations. For the past…

Rockwater, a wholly owned subsidiary of Brown & Bread, a global engineering and construction company, is a worldwide leader in underwater engineering and construction. Norman Chambers, hired as CEO in late 2019, knew that the industry’s competitive world had changed dramatically. “In the 1990s, we were a bunch of guys in wet suits diving off barges into the North Sea with burning torches,” Chambers said. But competition in the subsea contracting business had become keener in the 2000s, and many smaller companies left the industry. In addition, the focus of competition had shifted. Several leading oil companies wanted to develop long-term partnerships with their suppliers rather than choose suppliers based on low-price competition. With his senior management team, Chambers developed a vision: “As our customers’ preferred provider, we shall be the industry leader in providing the highest standards of safety and quality to our clients.” He also developed a strategy to implement the…
Bishop Logging Company is a large, family-owned logging contractor formed in the Lowcountry of South Carolina. Bishop Logging has traditionally harvested pine timber. However, Bishop Logging began investigating the feasibility of a fully mechanized hardwood swamp logging operation when its main customer, Stone Container Corporation, decided to expand hardwood production. In anticipating an increased demand for hardwood in conjunction with the operation of a new paper machine, Stone Container requested that Bishop Logging harvest and supply hardwood for processing at its mill. In South Carolina, most suitable hardwood is located deep in the swamplands. Because of the high accident risk in the swamp, Bishop Logging did not want to harvest hardwood by the conventional method of manual felling of trees. Because Bishop Logging had already been successful in its totally mechanized pine logging operation, it began a search for improved methods of hardwood swamp logging centered on mechanizing…

Required information [The following information applies to the questions displayed below] EagleEye Company, a manufacturer of digital cameras, is considering entry into the digital binocular market. EagleEye Company currently does not produce binoculars of any style, so this venture would require a careful analysis of relevant manufacturing costs to correctly assess its ability to compete. The market price for this binocular style is well established at $98 per unit. EagleEye has enough square footage in its plant to accommodate the new production line, although several pieces of new equipment would be required; their estimated cost is $3,750,000. EagleEye requires a minimum ROI of 12% on any product line investment and estimates that if it enters this market with its digital binocular product at the prevailing market price, It is confident of its ability to sell 15,000 units each year. b. Calculate the target cost per unit for entry into the digital binocular market Target cost per…
