1. Present value $18,180 $18,172 $22,530 $21,173 $24,840
2. Present value of the net sales proceeds = $248,400 ($400,000 * 0.621)
3. Total present value of the property = $104,895 ($18,180 + $18,172 + $22,530 + $21,173 + $24,840)
4. Total return on the investment = $143,505 ($248,400 - $104,895)
5. Forecasted appreciation in value on the property = $295,105 ($400,000 - $104,895)
5B. The net present value (NPV) of the deal, if you pay $350,000 at Year 0 = -$101,600 ($248,400 - $350,000)
5C. The IRR, using the short-cut method, = 15% (100%/5 * 75%)

Big Chill, Inc. sells portable dehumidifier units at the current price of $184. Unit variable costs are $85. Fixed costs, made up primarily of salaries, rent, insurance and advertising, are $3,236,000. Calculate breakeven sales for Big Chill, Inc. Round your answer to the nearest whole number.
Answer:
$6,014,384
Explanation:
Break even point is the level at which a firm makes neither profit nor a loss. This is the point where Profit = $0.
Break even units = Fixed Costs ÷ Contribution per unit
therefore,
Break even units = $3,236,000 ÷ ($184 x $85)
= 32,687 units
thus,
Breakeven Sales = 32,687 units x $184 = $6,014,384
Which per unit cost does the slope of the total cost line represent? Group of answer choices Fixed Variable. Semivariable Step-variable
Answer: Variable cost
Explanation:
The slope of a regression line is meant to represent the change in the total variable or y, as a result of a change in the number of independent observations or x.
The cost that changes during production as a result of an increase in x which is the volume of products, is the variable cost so it is the slope of the total cost line,
Slope of total cost line:
y = mx + c
y = total cost
m = variable cost. m is also slope.
x = production volume
c = fixed cost
Suppose that a haircut will give Dawn 2,000 units of utility and cost her $40, whereas a set of acrylic nails costs $25 and yields 1,000 units of util. Most likely Dawn should:_____.
A. be indifferent between the two choices.
B. choose the haircut because she will receive 50 units of utility per dollar as compared with 45 units of utility per dollar for the nails.
C. choose the haircut because each unit of utility will cost her 2 cents as compared with 2.5 cents for the nails.
D. choose the nails because she will obtain 50 units of utility per dollar as compared with 40 units of utility per dollar for the haircut.
Answer:
b
Explanation:
Marginal utility is the additional utility derived from consuming one more unit of a good
the consumption decision is to consume more units of a good that gives the higher utility per good.
Marginal utility per unit of good = marginal utility / price of the good
haircut = 2000 / 40 = 50
Nails = 1000 /25 = 40
the utility per unit for haircut is greater for haircut than nails, so he would choose haircut
When marginal utility is positive, it means that increasing consumption by one unit increases total utility
When marginal utility is negative, it means that increasing consumption by one unit decreases total utility
When marginal utility is zero, total utility has reached its maximum and no more units of goods would be consumed

As discussed in the lecture video, Crocs’ plastic molding and sandal design capabilities have provided the firm with only a temporary competitive advantage, as incumbent firms began selling sandals that were very similar to the Crocs’ clogs. Crocs lost its competitive advantage primarily because of ___________
Answer: c. competitor imitation
Explanation:
When a company makes a good product that people like and therefore brings in profit, other companies will copy that product if it is not protected by law so that they too can make profit as well.
This is what happened to the Crocs' clogs. Other companies imitated them and so Crocs lost their competitive advantage. This led to prices falling for such footwear as the supply increased. It is for this reason that companies try to get patents when they make a product.

If you encounter a process that has limited flexibility, shorter lead times, and cheaper products, customization most likely is occuring:
Answer: late in the supply chain
Explanation:
Assemble to order refers to a strategy whereby the products ordered by customers are manufactured quickly while they are customizable to an extent
Even though the basic parts of the product are manufactured already, they're not yet assembled until an order comes in.
If a process that has limited flexibility, shorter lead times, and cheaper products, customization most likely is occuring late in the supply chain.
In a situation where a process with limited flexibility, shorter lead times, and cheaper products, customization of the product or service will most likely occur D. Late in the Supply Chain
Given the process's limited flexibility and shorter lead times, customization, which is a process that tailors a product or service to meet specific customer's or market's demands, cannot occur early, at every step of the Supply Chain, or before procurement of raw materials.
Thus, customization occurs later in the Supply Chain when the goods are about to be delivered to the customer because delivery and satisfying customers or the market are the ultimate goals of any Supply Chain management.

Explanation:
Income elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in income.
Income elasticity = percentage change in quantity demanded / percentage change in income
percentage change in quantity demanded = (7/2) - 1 = 250%
percentage change in income = (52,000 / 45,000) - 1 = 15.6%
250 / 15.6 = 16.07
If the absolute value of income elasticity of demand is greater than one, it means demand is elastic.
Normal goods are goods that are goods whose demand increases when income increases and falls when income falls
Inferior goods are goods whose demand falls when income rises and increases when income falls.

15) A factory manager can improve EVA by A) increasing earnings and increasing capital employed. B) increasing capital employed and reducing earnings. C) reducing earnings and reducing capital employed. D) increasing earnings and reducing capital employed.
Answer: D) increasing earnings and reducing capital employed.
Explanation:
Economic Value Added (EVA) shows how much residual income that a company has after it subtracts the cost of the capital invested from the operating profit that the company got.
If a manager wants to increase EVA therefore, they need to reduce the capital used so that the cost of capital will be less. This should be done while earnings are increased for an even higher increase in EVA.

Three years ago, Kuley invested $32,200. In 2 years from today, he expects to have $50,300. If Kuley expects to earn the same annual return after 2 years from today as the annual rate implied from the past and expected values given in the problem, then in how many years from today does he expect to have exactly $87,200
Answer:
8.17 years(closest to 8 years )
Explanation:
The future value of $50,300, would be accumulated after 5 years of having made the investment(3 years+2 years=5 years)
As a result, we can determine the annual rate of return based on the future value in year 5 using the future value formula below:
FV=PV*(1+r)^n
FV=future value=$50,300
PV=amount invested initially=$32,200
r=unknown=annual rate of return
n=5 years
$50,300=$32,200*(1+r)^5
$50,300/$32,200=(1+r)^5
$50,300/$32,200 can be rewritten as ($50,300/$32,200)^1
($50,300/$32,200)^1=(1+r)^5
divide index on both sides by 5
($50,300/$32,200)^(1/5)=1+r
r=($50,300/$32,200)^(1/5)-1
r=9.33%
Our next task is to determine how long( in years) it takes to accumulate a future value of $87,200 from today's point, which means we need to determine the value of the investment today( 3 years after making the investment)
FV=$32,200*(1+9.33%)^3
FV=value of investment today=$42,079.82
Lastly, we can ascertain when $42,079.82 today would become $87,200
$87,200=$42,079.82*(1+9.33%)^n
n=number of years=unknown
$87,200/$42,079.82=(1+9.33%)^n
$87,200/$42,079.82=1.0933^n
take log of both sides
ln ($87,200/$42,079.82)=n ln(1.0933)
n=ln ($87,200/$42,079.82)/ln(1.0933)
n=0.72863604/0.08920065
n=8.17 years( from today, approx 8 years)
