A small strip-mining coal company is trying to decide whether it should purchase or lease a new clamshell. If purchased, the “shell” will cost $152,500 and is expected to have a $50,000 salvage value after 6 years. Alternatively, the company can lease a clamshell for only $16,000 per year, but the lease payment will have to be made at the beginning of each year. If the clamshell is purchased, it will be leased to other strip-mining companies whenever possible, an activity that is expected to yield revenues of $9,000 per year. If the company’s MARR is 13% per year, should the clamshell be purchased or leased on the basis of a future worth analysis? Assume the annual M&O cost is the same for both options.
The future worth when purchased is $
The future worth when leased is $

n September 2012, a 260,000 square foot Costco anchored shopping center was acquired in San Mateo, California for $36 million with a $26 million fully amortizing first mortgage loan from Union Bank. By 2018, the property had substantially appreciated in value and was worth $72 million and the owner wanted to access part or all of the increased equity value while paying little or no current taxes. The owner might:
Refinance the property with a larger loan
All these answers are correct
Sell the property under an installment sale contract
Trade the property for a property whose sale price is more than $54 million under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code

- A television station may either extend a current television show for another season or develop a completely new show for that time slot. It will cost $6M to develop the new show. The new show may be very successful, moderately successful, or not successful with associated advertising revenues of $25M, $15M, or $5M, respectively. If the station chooses to extend the current show, it will cost $2M. The extended show may be very successful, moderately successful, or not successful with associated advertising revenues of $15M, $10M, or $5M, respectively. Which of the following are true? A.

Joe prepared a matrix that illustrated the possible returns on investment for different investment strategies under different economic conditions. That matrix is given below. Donald Harris reads the Wall Drive Journal and came across an article that stated that the probability that there would be a major downturn would be 10%; the probability of a downturn would be 30%; the probability of an upturn would be 40%; and that the probability of a major upturn would be 20%.

In the latest game, Bayou Boondoggle, the player is instructed to scratch off one spot: A, B, or C. A can reveal "Loser," "Win $5," or "Win $25." B can reveal "Loser" or "Take a Second Chance." C can reveal "Loser" or "Win $600." On the second chance, the player is instructed to scratch off D or E. D can reveal "Loser" or "Win $5." E can reveal "Loser" or "Win $15." The probabilities at A are 0.70, 0.19, and 0.11. The probabilities at B are 0.70 and 0.30. The probabilities at C are 0.997 and 0.003. The probabilities at D are 0.4 and 0.6.

Betting on either horse will cost you $1, and the payoffs are as follows: • Bet on Belle: you will be paid $2 if she wins (or a net profit of $1). You believe she has a 75% chance of winning. • Bet on Jeb: you will be paid $9 if he wins (for a net profit of $8). You believe that he has a 20% chance of winning. Prior to making your decision of which horse to bet on, someone comes and offers you gambler’s “insurance.” If you agree to the gamblers “insurance,” they pay you $1 immediately and you agree to pay them 50% of the profit on your winnings (that is, $0.50 if Belle wins, and $4 if Jeb wins). What should you do? Answer this question by: a) Creating a decision tree for this scenario, making sure you label all branches and include all probabilities and consequences. b) Solving the decision tree using EMV and stating the optimal…arrow_forward
- A store owner must decide whether to build a small or a large facility at a new location. Demand at a location can be either small or large, which probabilities estimated to be 0.4 and 0.6, respectively. If small facility is built and demand proves to be high, the manager may choose not to expand (payoff=P235,000) or to expand (payoff=P275,000). If a small facility is built and demand is low, there is no reason to expand and the payoff is P220,000. If a large facility is built and demand proves to be low, the choice is to do nothing (P60,000) or to stimulate demand through local advertising. The response to advertising may be either modest or sizable, with their probabilities estimated to be 0.3 and 0.7, respectively. If it is modest, the payoff grows to P230,000 if the response is sizable. Finally, if a large facility is built and demand turns out to be high, the payoff is P900,000.a.) Draw a decision tree.b.)

There is a 0.6 chance that demand for the product will be strong and a 0.4 chance that demand will be weak. Two strategies for the launch are possible: 1 has high promotion costs and a net cash outflow of K120 000 if demand proves to be strong, and if demand proves weak a net cash outflow of (K30 000) will result. Strategy 2 has low promotion costs and if demand is strong will generate a cash inflow of only K80 000 but with weak demand a net cash inflow of K20 000. Draw a decision tree and advise which course of action generates the greatest expected profit.
