Chris's House of Music wants to purchase Transposelt, a system that transposes any song in its database and prints sheet music in the requested key. This system allows singers to obtain sheet music in keys that are suitable to their vocal range. The software for the system costs $10,600; a new computer and a laser printer costing $4,100 will be needed to run the system. Chris estimates that the system will generate additional annual sales revenue of $23,600 and that annual cash expenditures will be $18,789. Chris uses straight-line depreciation. The software, computer, and printer will have a useful life of 5 years. The system will have a $200 salvage value at the end of its 5-year useful life. (a) Your answer is correct. Calculate the annual net operating income generated by the system.

Milliken uses a digitally controlled dyer for placing intricate and integrated patterns on manufactured carpet squares for home and commercial use. It is purchased for $450,000. It is expected to last 8 years and has a salvage value of $30,000. Increased before tax cash flow due to this dyer is $97,500 per year. Milliken's tax rate is 40%, and the after-tax MARR is 12%. Develop tables using a spreadsheet to determine the ATCF for each year and the after-tax PW, AW, IRR, and ERR after 8 years. Use straight-line depreciation (no half-year convention). Use MACRS-GDS and state the appropriate property class. Use double declining balance depreciation (no half-year convention, no switching). (Round your answer to 2 decimal places for PW and AW. Do not round intermediate computations. Tolerance is +/- 1.00. Round to 2 decimal places and present in percentage format IRR and ERR. Tolerance is +/- 0.02.) ERR IRR AW PW a. b.
The Tuff Wheels was getting ready to start its development project for a new product to be added to their small motorized vehicle line for children. The new product is called the Kiddy Dozer. It will look like a miniature bulldozer, complete with caterpillar tracks and a blade. Tuff Wheels has forecasted the demand and the cost to develop and produce the new Kiddy Dozer. The table below contains the relevant information for this project. Development cost $ 1,450,000 Estimated development time 9 months Pilot testing $ 200,000 Ramp-up cost $ 400,000 Marketing and support cost $ 150,000 per year Sales and production volume 60,000 per year Unit production cost $ 100 Unit price $ 225 Interest rate 8 % Tuff Wheels also has provided the project plan shown below. As can be seen in the project plan, the company thinks that the product life will be three years until a new product must be created. Assume all cash flows occur at the end…

Don is using the floor plans for his new home to help him purchas base molding for the place where the walls meet the floor. The plans are drawn using a scale in which 1/3 inch represents 1 foot. He measures the walls on the floor plan with a ruler and finds they total 24 inches. If the molding costs $3.12 per foot, how much will Don spend on molding?
The Elberta Fruit Farm of Ontario is considering buying a cherry-picking machine to replace the part-time workers it usually hires to harvest its annual cherry crop. The machine shakes the cherry tree, causing the cherries to fall onto plastic tarps that funnel the cherries into bins. The company gathered the following information: The farm pays part-time workers $200,000 per year to pick the cherries. The cherry picker would cost $540,000, have a 8-year useful life with no salvage value, and be depreciated using the straight-line method. The cherry picker’s annual out-of-pocket costs would be cost of an operator and an assistant, $85,000; insurance, $4,000; fuel, $12,000; and a maintenance contract, $15,000. Click here to view Exhibit 14B-1 and Exhibit 14B-2, to determine the appropriate discount factor(s) using tables. Required: 1. Calculate the annual savings in cash operating costs provided by the cherry picker. 2a. Compute the cherry picker’s simple rate of return. 2b. Would…
Consider the following hypothetical sales scenario. A large community college buys and takes delivery of 50 iMac computers from a local Apple store. The invoiced price is $2,800 per unit and includes hardware, software essential to the functionality of the hardware, third-party software including Microsoft Office for Mac and Adobe Creative Suite, and two years of tech service and support. Apple uses vendor-specific objective evidence to determine unit prices of $2,500 and $300 for hardware and the essential software, respectively. The third-party software typically retails for $500 (but Apple purchases it at a 50% discount) and equivalent service and support contracts are $100 per year. The customer (the community college) can opt to purchase subsequent essential software and OS upgrades. Indicate how Apple should record gross revenue for the transaction at the time the customer takes delivery of the computers. Your response should include specific dollar amounts.
Chelsea runs a factory that makes DVD players. Each S100 takes 9 ounces of plastic and 2 ounces of metal. Each D200 requires 6 ounces of plastic and 6 ounces of metal. The factory has 396 ounces of plastic, 312 ounces of metal available, with a maximum of 24 S100 that can be built each week. If each S100 generates $16 in profit, and each D200 generates $8, how many of each of the DVD players should Chelsea have the factory make each week to make the most profit? S100: D200: Best profit:

Required to prepare a statement showing the amount Zubair will charge for carrying out this research.
Polaris Industries wishes to purchase a multiple-use in-plant ‘‘road test’’ simulator that can be used for ATVs, motorcycles, and snowmobiles. It takes digital data from relatively short drives on a desired surface—from smooth to exceptionally harsh—and simulates the ride over and over while the vehicle is mounted to a test stand under load. It can run continuously if desired and provides opportunities to redesign areas of poor reliability. It costs $128,000, and its market value decreases by 30 percent each year. Operating costs are modest; however, maintenance costs can be significant due to the rugged use. O&M in the first year is expected to be $10,000, increasing by 25 percent each subsequent year. MARR is 15 percent. What is the optimum replacement interval?
You are considering adding a new software title to those published by your highly successful software company. If you add the new product, it will use capacity on your disk duplicating machines that you had planned on using for your flagship product, "Battlin" Bobby." You had planned on using the unused capacity to start selling "BB" on the West coast in two years. You would eventually have had to purchase additional duplicating machines 10 years from today, but using the capacity for your new product will require moving this purchase up to 2 years from today. If the new machines will cost $101,000 and can be expensed under Section 179, your marginal tax rate is 21 percent, and your cost of capital is 10 percent, what is the opportunity cost associated with using the unused capacity for the new product? (Negative amount should be indicated by a minus sign. Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.) Opportunity cost
