A rotational molding operation has fixed costs of $6.000 per year and variable costs of $54 per unit. If the process is automated via conveyor, its fixed cost will be $39,000 per year, but its variable cost will be only $10 per unit. Determine the number of units each year necessary for the two operations to break even. The number of units each year necessary for the two operations to break even is determined to be
A rotational molding operation has fixed costs of $10,000 per year and variable costs of $52 per unit.

A mixing process has an estimated first cost of $200,000. Income is expected to be $78,000 per year. At an MARR of 20% per year, what is the payback period?
A company’s demand for a given component for the next 10 years is expected to be 1800/year. They have two options to have the component available for their production requirements, buying (option A) or making the component (option B). Details of the two options are given below: Option A : Three machines X,Y, and Z are needed to produce the component with initial costs of $100,000, $120,000, and $140,000 respectively. Salvage values for X,Y, and Z are $20,000, $30,000, and $40,000. Since the production process will continue for 10 years, an additional unit of any machine will be available for the same price (initial cost) , when needed, and will have the same salvage value at the end of its useful life. Useful lives are 10,5,10 years for machines X,Y, and Z respectively. A total production costs per year is estimated to be $80,000/year. Option B: Buying the component for $100 and saving an amount of $50000/year from utilizing the saved space for different purposes. Use i= 10% to…
Use the following for the next 2 questions: A facility is to be built with construction costs of $50 per square foot amortized over 20 years. Receiving and put-away costs are expected to be $0.02 per box and pick-pack-ship costs are expected to be $0.10 per box. The facility will have an annual upkeep and maintenance cost of $5 per square foot. 1. If the company constructs a 100,000 square foot facility, what is the monthly fixed cost? - $102.500 - $62,500 - $92,500 - $112,500 - $82,500 - $52,500 - $72,500 2. If demand in April is 30,000 boxes, what is the variable cost in April? (assume the number of boxes received in April equals the number of boxes shipped in April) - $3,000 - $1,200 - $3,600 - $2,400 - $600 - $4,200
The Engineers in a certain company are considering introducing a new product line. The initial investment required for this project is 250,000 OMR and the annual maintenance costs are expected to be 14,500 OMR. Annual operating costs will be directly proportional to the level of production at 11 OMR per unit, and each unit of product can be sold for 45 OMR. The estimated production output is 3000 unit per year. The MARR is 12% per year and the project has a life of 6 years. The initial investment, maintenance costs and production output are estimated to be within ±30%. Is this project acceptable from profitability point of view (show your analysis)? Analyze the sensitivity of AW to changes in each estimate individually (i.e.: make a spider plot). Based on your results rank these input factors from the highest sensitivity to the lowest. Calculate the breakeven deviations for the estimates and make recommendation either to accept or reject this project.
A machine costs $17,652 and is expected to have a scrap value of $2,919 whenever it is retired. Operating and Maintenance costs are $1,355 for the first year and expected to increase by $1,233 thereafter. If the MARR is 13%, determine the minimum equivalent uniform annual cost associated with the optimal economic life of the machine. The service life of this machine is 5 years. Note: round your answer to two decimal places, and do not include spaces, currency signs, plus or minus signs, nor commas.
The Fence Company is setting up a new production line to produce top rails. The relevant data for two alternatives are shown below. Solve, a. Based on MARR of 8%, determine the annual rate of production for which the alternatives are equally economical. b. If it is estimated that production will be 300 top rails per year, which alternative is preferred and what will be the total annual cost?
the process for producing a fruit-tree pesticide has a first cost of $200,000 with annual costs of $50,000 and revenue of $90,000 per year. What is the payback period in years?
A project requires an initial investment in equipment of $760,000 immediately (t=0) and is expected to produce sales revenue of $697, 000 the first year; this revenue will increase by 4.5% per year over the next four years. Manufacturing costs are estimated to be 67% of the sales. The project demand analysis, which was done last year, cost $235,000. The asset can be depreciated on a straight-line basis over five years to a zero salvage value. The corporate tax rate is 36%. The project requires an investment in working capital. Specifically, at the beginning of the project (t=0), $45,000 of working capital is required; thereafter, working capital is projected to be 6.0% of revenue. The investment in working capital will be recovered at the end of the fifth year. At the end of the 5th year, the company plans to sell the equipment for $18,900. To calculate the cost of capital for this project, the firm is going to use the following companies as comparable firms. Beta Debt Equity…
A project requires an initial investment in equipment of $90,000 and then requires an investment in working capital of $10,000 at the beginning (t = 0). The project is expected to produce sales revenues of $120,000 for three years. Manufacturing costs are estimated to be 60% of the revenues.The assets are depreciated using straight-line depreciation. At the end of the project, the firm can sell the equipment for $10,000. The corporate tax rate is 30% and the cost of capital is 15%. Calculate the NPV of the project. A. 8443 C. –2735B. 3840 D.
