- 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 two 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?Your highly successful software company is considering adding a new software title to your list. If you add the new product, it will use the full capacity of your disk duplicating machines that you had planned on using for your flagship product, “Battlin’ Bobby.” You had previously planned on using the unused capacity to start selling “BB” on the West Coast in two years.

- 9If can't do all with explanation please skip iwill definitely like if you follow this or skip pls You are considering purchasing a new database system for your company. The system will cost $80,000, and it will cost another $15,000 for equipment and training. The system is expected to be sold after three years, when you plan to outsource database activities. You hope that you can sell your system to a competitor for $12,000. You expect to save $22,000 per year in operating costs. Your corporate cost of capital is 10%. What is the project’s net investment outlay at Year 0? What are the projects’ operating cash flows in Years 1, 2, and 3? What is the terminal cash flow at the end of Year 3? If the project has average risk, is it expected to be profitable? On what basis did you draw this conclusion? .You are in the mail-order business, selling computer peripherals, including high-speed Internet cables, various storage devices such as memory sticks, and wireless networking devices. You are considering upgrading your mail ordering system to make your operations more efficient and to increase sales. The computerized ordering system will cost $250,000 to install and $50,000 to operate each year. The system is expected to last eight years with no salvage value at the end of the service period. The new order system will save $120,000 in operating costs (mainly, reduction in inventory carrying cost) each year and bring in additional sales revenue in the amount of $40,000 per year for the next eight years. If your interest rate is 12%,justify your investment using the NPW method.
- 2. As information becomes increasingly available additional storage is needed for the handling of client's insurance capacities. Short Stop is looking to modernise the hardware in which they store the data. Under the proposed idea, Short Stop would purchase dedicated virtual servers and cloud storage which costs $50,000 per year, indefinitely, from the end of year 2 onward (as it takes a year to implement this change). If implemented this would result in an immediate cost saving of $500,000. Short Stop has estimated that it could invest this money elsewhere, as an alternative, at 8% p.a. From a business perspective describe the concept of time value of money in such a way that your description sheds light on how businesses come to financial investment decisions or how investments today can be valued in the future. In the discussion your manager wants a clear description on the benefits of this concept for the business (or any business).I need the answer as soon as possibleI know this is a lot of information but this is what I would need to solve the problem. Any help would be appreciated! Your company, VR Co., has been approached to bid on a contract to sell 20,000 voice recognition (VR) computer keyboards a year for four years. Due to technological improvements, beyond that time they will be outdated and no sales will be possible. The equipment necessary for the production will cost $4 million and will be depreciated on a straight-line basis to a zero salvage value. Production will require an investment in net working capital of $80,000 initially and to be returned at the end of the project, and the equipment can be sold for $200,000 at the end of production. Fixed costs are $700,000 per year, and variable costs are $48 per unit. In addition to the contract, you feel your company can sell 4,000, 12,000, 14,000, and 7,000 additional units to companies in other countries over the next four years, respectively, at a price of $145. This price is fixed.…
- A New App Development Team from the Global MBA Program at Universidad Rey Juan Carlos of Spain is working on an apparel shopping tool that can scan your body using your cell phone and find the best fitting clothes for you, which are then modeled by your own dynamic image right there on the screen. Being high-tech, the term is limited to one year, as innovations will be necessary to keep it from being copied or rendered obsolete. EBITDA for the end of year one is expected to be $50,000,000, while developing costs and investments amount to $ 10,000,000.
