John was a high school teacher earning a net salary of $54,000 per year. After working for one year, he quit his job to start his own milk bar business. In order to start the business, John borrowed $40,000.00 from the bank and was paying 5 percent interest per year. Also, John withdrew $ 50,000 from his savings account. He had been earning 5 percent interest per year for this account. John’s first year of business can be summarised as follows: Item Amount $ Revenue- Fresh milk section 250,000 Revenue- Yogurt Section 180,000 2 Cashiers expense (wages per worker) (40,000) Truck expense (80,000) Manager expense (60,000) Milk sales assistant expense (30,000) Equipment expense (50,000) Motorcycle expense to ease movement in city (30,000) 2 milk freezers (cost per freezer) (5000) Based on your calculations of accounting profit and economic profit, would you advise John to return to his teaching job or continue with the…

Please no written by hand Appledale Dairy is considering upgrading an old ice-cream maker. Upgrading is available at two levels: moderate and extensive. Moderate upgrading costs $6500 now and yields annual savings of $3300 in the first year, $3000 in the second year, $2700 in the third year, and so on. Extensive upgrading costs $10 550 and saves $7600 in the first year. The savings then decrease by 20 percent each year thereafter. If the upgraded icecream maker will last for seven years, which upgrading option is better? Use a present worth comparison. Appledale’s MARR is 8 percent.

7-4 | Derive two expressions for capitalized cost based on (1) annual discrete interest compound- ing and (2) continuous interest compounding. Capitalized cost is defined as the sum of the original cost C, of the equipment or asset plus the amount P that must be invested when the original equipment or asset is purchased so that when the original equipment or asset is replaced in N years at a cost C, the value of the investment equals P plus C.
