Question

Chapter 8, Problem 22P

(a)

To determine

To construct:A choice table for interest tables from 0% to 100% assuming doing nothing is allowed.

(a)

Expert Solution

Answer to Problem 22P

From table below, from 0% to 4.7%, Alternative C should be preferred. Between 4.7% to 6.9%; Alternative B should be preferred. Alternative A should be preferred for interest rate between 6.9% to 8.2%.

Explanation of Solution

NPV of Alternative A =[450−800(A/P,i,2)](P/A,i,8)

NPV of Alternative B =[450−1,500(A/P,i,4)](P/A,i,8)

NPV of Alternative C =450(P/A,i,8)−2,750

To determine

To construct:A choice table for interest tables from 0% to 100% assuming A, B o r C must be chosen.

(b)

Expert Solution

Answer to Problem 22P

From table below, from 0% to 4.7%, Alternative C should be preferred. Between 4.7% to 6.9%; Alternative B should be preferred. Beyond that Alternative A should be preferred for interest rate between 6.9% to 100%.

Explanation of Solution

NPV of Alternative A =[450−800(A/P,i,2)](P/A,i,8)

NPV of Alternative B =[450−1,500(A/P,i,4)](P/A,i,8)

NPV of Alternative C =450(P/A,i,8)−2,750

A firm operates with the production function Q = K2 L. Q is the number of units of output per day when the firm rents K units of capital and employs L workers each day. The manager has been given a production target: to produce 8,000 units per day. She knows that the daily rental price of capital is $400 per unit and the wage rate is $200 day. a. What is the returns to scale of this production function? Show mathematically. b. Currently the firm employs 80 workers per day. What is the firm’s daily total cost if it rents just enough capital to produce at its target? c. Compare the marginal product per dollar spent on K and on L when the firm operates at the input choice in part (b). What does this suggest about the way the firm might change its choice of K and L if it wants to reduce the total cost in meeting its target? Explain your answer very clearly. d. In the long run, how much K and L should the firm choose if it wants to minimize the cost of producing 8,000 units of output a day?…

Answer 2

Question

Chapter 8, Problem 22P

(a)

To determine

To construct:A choice table for interest tables from 0% to 100% assuming doing nothing is allowed.

(a)

Expert Solution

Answer to Problem 22P

From table below, from 0% to 4.7%, Alternative C should be preferred. Between 4.7% to 6.9%; Alternative B should be preferred. Alternative A should be preferred for interest rate between 6.9% to 8.2%.

Explanation of Solution

NPV of Alternative A =[450−800(A/P,i,2)](P/A,i,8)

NPV of Alternative B =[450−1,500(A/P,i,4)](P/A,i,8)

NPV of Alternative C =450(P/A,i,8)−2,750

Expert Solution

Answer to Problem 22P

From table below, from 0% to 4.7%, Alternative C should be preferred. Between 4.7% to 6.9%; Alternative B should be preferred. Beyond that Alternative A should be preferred for interest rate between 6.9% to 100%.

Explanation of Solution

NPV of Alternative A =[450−800(A/P,i,2)](P/A,i,8)

NPV of Alternative B =[450−1,500(A/P,i,4)](P/A,i,8)

NPV of Alternative C =450(P/A,i,8)−2,750

Answer 3

Question

Chapter 8, Problem 22P

(a)

To determine

To construct:A choice table for interest tables from 0% to 100% assuming doing nothing is allowed.

(a)

Expert Solution

Answer to Problem 22P

From table below, from 0% to 4.7%, Alternative C should be preferred. Between 4.7% to 6.9%; Alternative B should be preferred. Alternative A should be preferred for interest rate between 6.9% to 8.2%.

Explanation of Solution

NPV of Alternative A =[450−800(A/P,i,2)](P/A,i,8)

NPV of Alternative B =[450−1,500(A/P,i,4)](P/A,i,8)

NPV of Alternative C =450(P/A,i,8)−2,750

To determine

To construct:A choice table for interest tables from 0% to 100% assuming A, B o r C must be chosen.

(b)

Expert Solution

Answer to Problem 22P

From table below, from 0% to 4.7%, Alternative C should be preferred. Between 4.7% to 6.9%; Alternative B should be preferred. Beyond that Alternative A should be preferred for interest rate between 6.9% to 100%.

Explanation of Solution

NPV of Alternative A =[450−800(A/P,i,2)](P/A,i,8)

NPV of Alternative B =[450−1,500(A/P,i,4)](P/A,i,8)

NPV of Alternative C =450(P/A,i,8)−2,750

Answer 4

Question

Chapter 8, Problem 22P

(a)

To determine

To construct:A choice table for interest tables from 0% to 100% assuming doing nothing is allowed.

(a)

Expert Solution

Answer to Problem 22P

From table below, from 0% to 4.7%, Alternative C should be preferred. Between 4.7% to 6.9%; Alternative B should be preferred. Alternative A should be preferred for interest rate between 6.9% to 8.2%.

Explanation of Solution

NPV of Alternative A =[450−800(A/P,i,2)](P/A,i,8)

NPV of Alternative B =[450−1,500(A/P,i,4)](P/A,i,8)

NPV of Alternative C =450(P/A,i,8)−2,750

Choice table for interest from 0% to 100%

(b)

To determine

To construct:A choice table for interest tables from 0% to 100% assuming A, B o r C must be chosen.

(b)

Expert Solution

Answer to Problem 22P

From table below, from 0% to 4.7%, Alternative C should be preferred. Between 4.7% to 6.9%; Alternative B should be preferred. Beyond that Alternative A should be preferred for interest rate between 6.9% to 100%.

Explanation of Solution

NPV of Alternative A =[450−800(A/P,i,2)](P/A,i,8)

NPV of Alternative B =[450−1,500(A/P,i,4)](P/A,i,8)

NPV of Alternative C =450(P/A,i,8)−2,750

Answer 5

Chapter 8, Problem 22P

(a)

To determine

To construct:A choice table for interest tables from 0% to 100% assuming doing nothing is allowed.

(a)

Expert Solution

Answer to Problem 22P

From table below, from 0% to 4.7%, Alternative C should be preferred. Between 4.7% to 6.9%; Alternative B should be preferred. Alternative A should be preferred for interest rate between 6.9% to 8.2%.

Explanation of Solution

NPV of Alternative A =[450−800(A/P,i,2)](P/A,i,8)

NPV of Alternative B =[450−1,500(A/P,i,4)](P/A,i,8)

NPV of Alternative C =450(P/A,i,8)−2,750

To determine

To construct:A choice table for interest tables from 0% to 100% assuming A, B o r C must be chosen.

(b)

Expert Solution

Answer to Problem 22P

From table below, from 0% to 4.7%, Alternative C should be preferred. Between 4.7% to 6.9%; Alternative B should be preferred. Beyond that Alternative A should be preferred for interest rate between 6.9% to 100%.

Explanation of Solution

NPV of Alternative A =[450−800(A/P,i,2)](P/A,i,8)

NPV of Alternative B =[450−1,500(A/P,i,4)](P/A,i,8)

NPV of Alternative C =450(P/A,i,8)−2,750

Answer 6

Chapter 8, Problem 22P

(a)

To determine

To construct:A choice table for interest tables from 0% to 100% assuming doing nothing is allowed.

(a)

Expert Solution

Answer to Problem 22P

From table below, from 0% to 4.7%, Alternative C should be preferred. Between 4.7% to 6.9%; Alternative B should be preferred. Alternative A should be preferred for interest rate between 6.9% to 8.2%.

Explanation of Solution

NPV of Alternative A =[450−800(A/P,i,2)](P/A,i,8)

NPV of Alternative B =[450−1,500(A/P,i,4)](P/A,i,8)

NPV of Alternative C =450(P/A,i,8)−2,750

Answer 7

Chapter 8, Problem 22P

(a)

To determine

To construct:A choice table for interest tables from 0% to 100% assuming doing nothing is allowed.

Answer 8

(a)

Expert Solution

Answer to Problem 22P

From table below, from 0% to 4.7%, Alternative C should be preferred. Between 4.7% to 6.9%; Alternative B should be preferred. Alternative A should be preferred for interest rate between 6.9% to 8.2%.

Answer 12

Explanation of Solution

NPV of Alternative A =[450−800(A/P,i,2)](P/A,i,8)

NPV of Alternative B =[450−1,500(A/P,i,4)](P/A,i,8)

NPV of Alternative C =450(P/A,i,8)−2,750

Choice table for interest from 0% to 100%

Answer 13

(b)

To determine

To construct:A choice table for interest tables from 0% to 100% assuming A, B o r C must be chosen.

(b)

Expert Solution

Answer to Problem 22P

From table below, from 0% to 4.7%, Alternative C should be preferred. Between 4.7% to 6.9%; Alternative B should be preferred. Beyond that Alternative A should be preferred for interest rate between 6.9% to 100%.

Explanation of Solution

NPV of Alternative A =[450−800(A/P,i,2)](P/A,i,8)

NPV of Alternative B =[450−1,500(A/P,i,4)](P/A,i,8)

NPV of Alternative C =450(P/A,i,8)−2,750
