Steel drums manufacturer incurs a yearly operating cost of P 200,000. Each drum manufactured cost P 160 and sells for P 300. A machine use for the production has a first cost of P 20,000 and a salvage value of P 2,000 after producing 1,000 units. What is the break even number of units per year?
Economics
Last year, a decision was made to keep the same equipment in lieu of
buying new equipment. The old equipment's trade-in value last year
was $4000 and its value this year is $2000. The operating cost was
$700 last year. If bought last year, the new equipment would have
cost $13K, the salvage value after 8 years would be $2000, and it
would have an annual operating cost of $4000.
If bought last year, what would have been the EUAC of the new
equipment (in dollars) at 16% interest rate per year? (provide your
answer in the box as a negative value if you arrive at costs)
What would have been the correct decision? (provide your answer
and justification in your pdf file submission)
