Kurt Hozak, VP of Operations at McClainManufacturing, has to make a decision between two investmentalternatives. Investment A has an initial cost of $61,000, and investment B has an initial cost of $74,000. The useful life ofinvestment A is 6 years; the useful life of investment B is 7 years.Given a cost of capital of 9% and the following cash flows foreach alternative, determine the most desirable investment alternativeaccording to the net present value criterion.
Svalbard Swing Company uses the accounting rate of return to evaluate investment projects.
Management accepts projects that earn a return of 14% or more. They are considering two
alternative investment proposals with the following data:
Initial Investment
Useful Life
Estimated annual net income
Salvage Value
Depreciation Method
Only Statement #1 is true
Only Statement #2 is true
Both Statements are true
Project #1
$300,000
Evaluate the following statements:
1. The accounting rate of return for Project #1 is 10%
2. Using the accounting rate of return, Svalbard Company will only accept Project #2
O Both Statements are false
5 years
$30,000
$100,000
SL
Project #2
$400,000
8 years
$46,000
$60,000
SL
The data given are estimated for the project study of a certain business investment. If money is worth 10% which of the project is more desirable, using Present worth Method and determine the difference in profit from each project study. For Plan A, the initial investment is 3,500 with an annual revenue of 1,900. Annual disbursement amounts to 645 with no salvage value at the end of its life which is 4 years. For Plan B, the initial investment is 5,000, with annual revenue of 2,500. Annual disbursement is 1,383 with no salvage value at the end of its life which is 8 years.
