Answer:
Pound depreciates from $2.0260/GBP to $ 1.9460/GBP
Amount borrowed = 5,000,000*2.026 =$10,130,000
Payment after 1 year = 5,000,000*1.07375*1.946 = $10,447,587.5
Dollar cost = (10,447,587.5/10,130,000 - 1)*100 = 3.135%
Pound appreciates from $2.0260/GBP to $ 2.1640/GBP
Amount borrowed = 5,000,000*2.026 =$10,130,000
Payment after 1 year = 5,000,000*1.07375*2.164 = $11,617,975
Dollar cost = (11,617,975/10,130,000 - 1)*100 = 14.688%
(a) The dollar cost of the debt is $10,445,125 if the pound depreciates to $1.9460/GBP, and (b) $11,617,375 if the pound appreciates to $2.1640/GBP.

Dollar cost of debt: $11,617,375ABC opened for business on January 1, 2018, and paid for two insurance policies effective that date. The liability policy was $36,000 for 18 months, and the crop damage policy was $12,000 for a two-year term. What was the balance in ABC's Prepaid Insurance account as of December 31, 2018
Answer:
$18,000
Explanation:
Data provided in the question
Liability policy for 18 months = $36,000
And, the crop damage policy = $12,000 for two years
So by considering the above information, the balance in the ending prepaid insurance account is
= Liability policy ÷ number of years
= $36,000 ÷ 2 years
= $18,000
By dividing the liability policy with the number of years we can get the ending balance and the same is shown above
MIRR calculation) Emily's Soccer Mania is considering building a new plant. This project would require an initial cash outlay of $10.2 million and would generate annual cash inflows of $3.2 million per year for years one through four. In year five the project will require an investment outlay of $5.2 million. During years 6 through 10 the project will provide cash inflows of $5.2 million per year. Calculate the project's MIRR, given a discount rate of 8 percent.'
Answer:
The project's MIRR is 14.54% as found in the attached
Explanation:
The MIRR which is the modified internal rate of return can be computed using excel formula MIRR which stated thus:
=MIRR(values,finance_ rate,reinvest_rate)
values are the cash flows both inflows and outflows derivable from the projects such as $10.2 million in year 1,$3.2 million in the first four years as well as the $5.2 million cash outflow in year 5 and the $5.2 inflows from year six onward.
The finance rate and reinvest rate are same as the discount rate of 8%.
Eventually,the MIRR gave 14.54% as computed in the attached spreadsheet.

Catamount Company had current and accumulated E&P of $585,000 at December 31, 20X3. On December 31, the company made a distribution of land to its sole shareholder, Caroline West. The land's fair market value was $234,000 and its tax and E&P basis to Catamount was $292,500. The tax consequences of the distribution to Catamount in 20X3 would be:
Answer and Explanation:
No loss will be recognized in the year 20X3 and a provide a reduction in E&P of $292,500
Given:
Current and accumulated E&P = $585,000
Fair market value = $234,000
Profit on accumulation:
Profit on accumulation = Current and accumulated E&P - Fair market value Profit on accumulation = $585,000 - $234,000
Profit on accumulation = $351,000
Distribution is divided because accumulated profit in year 20X3 is higher then distribution.

Happy Company wants to raise $2 million with debt financing. The funds are needed to finance working capital, and the firm will repay them with interest in one year. Happy Company’s treasurer is considering three options:
a. Borrowing U.S. dollars from Security Pacific Bank at 8 percent.
b. Borrowing British pounds from Midland Bank at 14 percent.
c. Borrowing Japanese yen from Sanwa Bank at 5 percent.
If Happy borrows foreign currency, it will not cover it; that is, it will simply change foreign currency for dollars at today’s spot rate and buy the same foreign currency a year later at the spot rate that is in effect. Happy Company estimates the pound will depreciate by 5 percent relative to the dollar and the yen will appreciate 3 percent relative to the dollar in the next year. From which bank should Happy Company borrow?
Explanation:
Happy Company will consider both capital expenses and foreign exchange threats.
If Happy's calculations are right, borrowing from Minland Bank is the best choice.
However, since forecasts are based solely on estimation, the choice is still centered on Happy Company's risk appetite, whether to take an 8 per cent flat rate, a strong 14 per cent rate, but with a chance of decline or a small 5 per cent rate, but with a possibility of appreciation.
Considering the interest rates and currency valuation changes, Happy Company should borrow either from Security Pacific Bank in the US or from Sanwa Bank in Japan. Both options equate to an 8% interest rate, resulting in a repayment amount of $2.16 million.
Explanation:In order to determine from which bank Happy Company should borrow, we'll need to take into account not only the initial interest rates, but also the expected appreciation or depreciation of each currency relative to the dollar over the next year.
From Security Pacific Bank, borrowing in USD at 8% means Happy Company would need to repay $2.16 million.
Borrowing from Midland Bank in pounds at 14%, plus the estimated 5% depreciation of the pound relative to the dollar, effectively gives an interest rate of 9%. This would require repayment of approximately $2.18 million.
Finally, borrowing from Sanwa Bank in yen at 5% interest, plus the 3% expected appreciation of the yen relative to the dollar, would be equivalent to an interest rate of 8%. This totals to a repayment of $2.16 million.
Given these calculations, the best option would likely be to borrow either from Security Pacific Bank, or from Sanwa Bank, as both would require the same repayment amount. However, there may be other factors not considered in this calculation such as transaction fees or exchange rate volatility that could impact the final decision.

Bonita Industries produces 5000 units of part A12E. The following costs were incurred for that level of production: Direct materials $ 60000 Direct labor 165000 Variable overhead 80000 Fixed overhead 175000 If Bonita buys the part from an outside supplier, $45000 of the fixed overhead is avoidable. If the outside supplier offers a unit price of $73, net income will increase (decrease) by $145000. $(60000).$85000. $(15000).
Bonita Industries will save $80000 and therefore increase their net income by the same amount if they buy part A12E from the outside supplier instead of producing it in-house.
Explanation:In determining whether Bonita Industries should produce part A12E in-house or buy from an outside supplier, we first need to calculate the total cost of producing the part in-house. The total cost of producing 5000 units of part A12E in-house is $60000 (direct materials) + $165000 (direct labor) + $80000 (variable overhead) + $175000 (fixed overhead) = $490000. Since $45000 of the fixed overhead is avoidable if the part is bought from an outside supplier, the true cost of producing the part in-house is $490000 - $45000 = $445000.
The cost of buying the part from an outside supplier is $73 * 5000 units = $365000. Comparing this with the in-house production cost, Bonita Industries will save $445000 - $365000 = $80000 if they buy from the outside supplier. Therefore, the net income will increase by $80000 if Bonita buys part A12E from the outside supplier.

When estimating wage equations we expect that young, inexperienced workers will have relatively low wages and that with additional experience their wages will rise, but then begin to decline after middle age, as the worker nears retirement. This life-cycle pattern of wages can be captured by introducing experience and experience squared to explain the level of wages. If we also include years of education and a dummy variable for the sex (0 if male, 1 if female) we have the following equation:
W AGE = β1 + β2 EDUC + β3 EXPER + β4 EXPER^2 + β5 SEX + e
a. What is the marginal effect of experience on wages?
b. What signs do you expect for each of the coefficients β2, β3, β4 and β5 Why?
c. After how many years of experience do wages start to decline (Since you are not provided with OLS estimates of the regression coefficients, cast your answer in terms of the theoretical coefficients β).
The marginal effect of experience on wages can be calculated mathematically, coefficient signs show the expected impact of each variable on wages, and the point when wages start to decline can be determined from the wage equation.
Explanation:The marginal effect of experience on wages can be calculated by taking the derivative of the wage equation with respect to experience. This would be the sum of the coefficients β3 and 2 times the coefficient β4 multiplied by the level of experience.
The signs expected for the coefficients β2, β3, β4, and β5 would be positive for β2 (education increases wages), positive for β3 (experience typically increases wages), negative for β4 (experience squared captures the decline in wages after a certain point), and the sign for β5 would depend on whether being female positively or negatively impacts wages in the specific context of the data.
Wages start to decline after the number of years of experience indicated by the point where the marginal effect of experience on wages changes from positive to negative, which occurs at -β3 / (2*β4) in the wage equation.

Task c:What is the maximum number of days a customer would have to wait for a backorder under the policy in part (b)? Assume that the Hobby Shop is open for business 300 days per year.
If required, round your answer to two decimal places.
Solution:Length of backorder days (d) = Demand ÷ amount of working days
d = 480 ÷ 300
d = 1.6
Calculate the backorders as the maximum number of backorders divided by the demand per day
s/d = 9.75/1.6 = 6.09 days (answer)
Task dWould you recommend a no-backorder or a backorder inventory policy for this product? Explain. If required, round your answers to two decimal places.
Recommendation would be inventory policy, since the maximum wait is only days and the cost savings is $._____
Solution:
Calculate the difference in total between not using backorder:
$207.85 + $207.85 - 207.91 = $207.79
The saving in using backorder is $207.79.
Task eIf the lead time is six days, what is the reorder point for both the no-backorder and backorder inventory policies? If required, round your answers to two decimal places.
Task e.1Reorder point for no-backorder inventory policy is .
Task e.2Reorder point for backorder inventory policy is .
Solution:Task e.1Reorder point for no-backorder inventory policy is .
Reorder point = d*lead timeReorder point = 1.6*6
Reorder point = 9.6
Task e.2Reorder point for backorder inventory policy is .
Reorder point = d*lead time - S
Reorder point = 1.6*6 - 6.09
Reorder point = 3.51
To determine the Economic Order Quantity (EOQ) and total annual cost:
EOQ Calculation: EOQ formula is:Total Cost without backorders: $29520.55
Backorder Cost Calculation: Minimum cost policy with backorders involves EOQ with backorder cost (C) taken into account:Maximum number of backorder days:
Given: Hobby Shop open for 300 days per year
Length of backorder period = (Q*/D) * (P/P+S), where P is the number of backorders filled during the cycle and S = remaining time backorder is held.
Therefore, maximum waiting time = (20.55/480) * 300 = 0.12 * 300 = 36 days.
Recommendation
It would be prudent to recommend a backorder policy because the cost savings of $21,122.18 annually outweigh the inconvenience of 36 days of potential backorders.Reorder PointWithout backorders:George Corporation had the following transactions occur in the current year: 1. Cash sale of merchandise inventory. 2. Sale of delivery truck at book value. 3. Sale of George Corporation common stock for cash. 4. Issuance of a note payable to a bank for cash. 5. Sale of a debt security held as an available-for-sale investment. 6. Collection of loan receivable. How many of the above items will appear as a cash inflow from investing activities on a statement of cash flows for the current year? Two items Three Items Four Items Five or more items
Answer: Three items will appear being;
2. Sale of delivery truck at book value
5. Sale of a debt security held as an available-for-sale investment
6. Collection of loan receivable.
Explanation:
The Investment Section of the Cash Flow Statement contains activities related to investment such as the buying or selling of fixed assets and the buying or selling of other company stocks or bonds.
Out of the above therefore, there are 3 activities that would fall under this section of the Cash Flow Statement.
They are;
2. Sale of delivery truck at book value.
- This refers to the sale of a Fixed asset and as such it goes to the investment section.
5. Sale of a debt security held as an available-for-sale investment.
- As a debt security of another firm that was considered available for sale, this goes to the Investment Section as well.
6. Collection of loan receivable.
- Finally, collection of loan receivable means that the company loaned money to another company making it an investment related cash inflow as it is a long term Investment income source.
The Pecking Order view on capital structure:
a. Argues that firm's first choice for capital is new equity due to the fact that dividends are not contractually required.
b. Argues that the firm's first choice for capital is new debt as interest payments are tax-deductible.
c. Argues that a firm's first choice for capital is retained earnings as there is no informational cost associated with using retained earnings.
d. Argues that firms are indifferent between new equity, debt and retained earnings as sources of capital.
Answer:
c. Argues that a firm's first choice for capital is retained earnings as there is no informational cost associated with using retained earnings.
Explanation:
The Pecking order theory states that a business should first of all seek for internal funds (retained earnings) as a first choice of capital.
When internal funds are depleted, it can now look to debt as a source of finance.
In turn when debt options have been exhausted the last resort is to look for funding from equity.
So the Pecking order argues that a firm's first choice for capital is retained earnings as there is no informational cost associated with using retained earnings.
Briefly explain what the term "balance of trade" refers to from a macroeconomic perspective and include a brief description of how exports and imports influence the balance of trade.
Answer:
In a macroeconomic perspective, the balance of trade (BOT) simply refers to the difference between the value of the imports and exports of a country. In measuring the relative strength of a country's economy, economists make use of the balance of trade. Also, in considering the balance of payments, the balance of trade is the largest component considered.
In balance of trade, TRADE DEFICIT and TRADE SURPLUS are usually considered in relation to their import and export activities
The Trade Deficit results when a country imports more good and services than it exports. While the Trade Surplus results when a country exports more goods and services than it imports.
Since 1976, the United States had a trade deficit. This was as a result of their dependency on oil imports and consumer products. While since 1995, China which produces and exports many of the world's consumable goods has recorded a trade surplus.
When trade deficit occurs, countries affected borrow money to pay for their goods and services but when trade surplus occurs in a country, such country lends money to deficit countries.
Formula for BOT = Total Value Of Imports minus (➖) Total value of exports.
Answer: balance of trade is used to show the major difference between a country import and export over a specified period of time.
Explanation: Balance of trade is used to show the major difference between a country import and export over a specified period of time. Macroeconomics is the study of the whole factors that affect a countries economy.
When exports is greater than import, this leads to what is called unbalanced or unfavorable balance trade ( trade surplus) same applies when import exceeds export. The balance of trade is a part of a large economic unit this is where it relates to macroeconomics.
Why is cash flow important to government entities? How does an administrator plan for cash flow? What tools are available for this purpose?
Answer:
Cash flow is important to government entities because:
As with non-government entities, cash flow is important to government organizations because it is required for the operations of any organization regardless of whether they are government-owned or not, for-profit or not.
The measurable difference in the cash balance of any organization from one period to the next is referred to as Cashflow. No business or entity can continue operations if they keep taking out or spending more cash than they can make.
An administrator can plan for cash flow using a Cash Flow Planner.
This can take the form of a simple excel spread sheet with one column showing on one side all the monies that one is expecting to come in (Account Receivables) and an adjacent column showing all the monies one is expecting to pay out (Account payables).
At the bottom of the excel, you can show the bank balance.
There are specialised apps that help perform this function. An example would be Quickbooks, Planware, Cash Flow Planner, etc.

Explanation:
An employee earned $42,700 working for an employer in the current year. The current rate for FICA Social Security is 6.2% payable on earnings up to $128,400 maximum per year and the rate for FICA Medicare 1.45%. The employer's total FICA payroll tax for this employee is:
Answer: $3,266.55
Explanation: The employee's salary scale falls between $1 and $128,400 so the FICA tax rate for social security of 6.2% and Medicare of 1.45% applies to him.
Social security tax payable
$42,700 x 6.2% / 100 = $2,647.4
Medicare tax payable
$42,700 x 1.45% / 100 = $619.15
Total tax payable by the employee
$2647.4 + $619.15 = $3,266.55
19. Which of the following statements is FALSE? A) Leverage can reduce the degree of managerial entrenchment because managers are more likely to be fired when a firm faces financial distress. B) When a firm is highly levered, creditors themselves will closely monitor the actions of managers, providing an additional layer of management oversight. C) According to the empire building hypothesis, leverage increases firm value because it commits the firm to making future interest payments, thereby reducing excess cash flows and wasteful investment by managers. D) Managers of large firms tend to earn higher salaries, and they may also have more prestige and garner greater publicity than managers of small firms. As a result, managers may expand (or fail to shut down) unprofitable divisions, pay too much for acquisitions, make unnecessary capital expenditures, or hire unnecessary employees.
Answer: C) According to the empire building hypothesis, leverage increases firm value because it commits the firm to making future interest payments, thereby reducing excess cash flows and wasteful investment by managers.
Explanation:
This statement is false because it is not the definition of the Empire Building Hypothesis.
It is rather, the definition of the Free Cash Flow Hypothesis which essentially believes that a company that is making a lot of free cashflow is not as disciplined in handling money as a company that has debt obligations. It claims that when a company has a lot of free cash flow it tends to invest in bad projects.
The FREE CASH FLOW HYPOTHESIS not the Empire Building Hypothesis therefore believes that leverage increases firm value because it commits the firm to making future interest payments, thereby reducing excess cash flows and wasteful investment by managers.

On July 1, Alaskan Adventures issues a $120,000, eight-month, 6.5% note. Interest is payable at maturity. What is the amount of interest expense that the company would record in a year-end adjustment on December 31
Answer:
December 31 Interest expense $3900 Dr
Interest Payable $3900 Cr
Explanation:
The interest and principal is both payable at maturity thus we need to accrue the interest payment and create a liability against the amount of interest due. The adjustment is made 6 months from the issue of the note thus the interest for 6 months is due. The entry would be to record 6 month's interest that relates to this year. The interest expense will be,
120000 * 0.065 * 6/12 = $3900
As the payment is not made until maturity we will credit interest payable by this amount.
The company would record an interest expense of $3,260.27 in a year-end adjustment on December 31.
Explanation:The interest expense recorded in a year-end adjustment on December 31 can be calculated using the formula: Interest = (Principal x Rate x Time) / Days in a Year. In this case, the principal is $120,000, the rate is 6.5%, and the time is 8 months. To convert the time to a fraction of a year, divide by 12, which gives us 8/12 or 2/3. Since the interest is payable at maturity, we can assume that the note will be held to the full 8 months. We also need to consider that December has 31 days, so the number of days in a year is 365.
Using the formula, the interest expense can be calculated as follows: Interest = ($120,000 x 0.065 x (2/3)) / 365. Solving this equation, we get Interest = $3,260.27.
Therefore, the company would record an interest expense of $3,260.27 in a year-end adjustment on December 31.

Later, Rick decided not to buy the campers and demanded a return of his $1,000. Was Rick's instruction not to ship an anticipatory repudiation that will justify McMahon's retention of the $1,000? Explain.
Answer:
Rick instruction not to ship is an anticipatory repudiation and it justifies McMahon's retention of the $1000
Explanation:
Rick instruction not to ship is an anticipatory repudiation and it justifies McMahon's retention of the $1000
when a contract is entered by two parties and one party provides a clear inability/unwillingness to keep to the original terms of the contract the party is said to have committed an anticipatory repudiation and the decision to accept or reject such inability lies with the second party because the second party may have to lose something due to the inability of the first party keeping to the contract hence McMahon's retention of the initial deposit of $1000 is within his rights

Radisson Enterprises sells a product for $69 per unit. The variable cost is $40 per unit, while fixed costs are $206,045. Determine (a) the break-even point in sales units and (b) the break-even point if the selling price were increased to $75 per unit.
Answer:
1. 7,105 units
2. 5,887 units
Explanation:
The computation of given question is shown below:-
a. Contribution margin per unit = Sale price - Variable cost
= $69 - $40
= $29
Break-even point in sales units = Fixed costs ÷ Contribution margin per unit
= $206,045 ÷ 29
= 7,105 units
b. Contribution margin per unit
= $75 - $40 = $35
Break-even point = Fixed cost ÷ Contribution margin per unit
$206,045 ÷ $35
= 5,887 units
Walter Utilities is a dividend-paying company and is expected to pay an annual dividend of $0.65 at the end of the year. Its dividend is expected to grow at a constant rate of 9.50% per year. If Walter’s stock currently trades for $12.00 per share, what is the expected rate of return?
Answer:
14.90%
Explanation:
We know,
Current stock price, [tex]P_{0}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{D_{1}}{r_{s} - g}[/tex]
Given,
Current stock price, [tex]P_{0}[/tex] = $12.00
growth rate, g = 9.50% = 0.095
Expected annual dividend, [tex]D_{1}[/tex] = $0.65
We have to determine the expected rate of return ([tex]r_{s}[/tex]).
Putting the values into the above formula, we can get,
Current stock price, [tex]P_{0}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{D_{1}}{r_{s} - g}[/tex]
or, $12.00 = $0.65 ÷ ([tex]r_{s}[/tex] - 0.095)
or, $12.00 × ([tex]r_{s}[/tex] - 0.095) = $0.65
or, [tex]r_{s}[/tex] - 0.095 = $0.65 ÷ $12.00
or, [tex]r_{s}[/tex] - 0.095 = 0.0542
or, [tex]r_{s}[/tex] = 0.054 + 0.095
Therefore, [tex]r_{s}[/tex] = 0.149
The expected rate of return = 0.149 or 14.90%
Suppose your firm just issued a 20-year, $1000 par value bond with semiannual coupons. The coupon interest rate is 9%. The bonds sold for par value, but flotation costs amounted to 5% of the price. You have a 21% corporate tax rate. What is your firm’s after-tax cost of debt? Group of answer choices
Answer:
4.78%
Explanation:
From the question given, we solve the issue
the calculation of he bond price is:
Price of bond = per value * (1- flotation cost)
$1000 * (1- 0.05)
= $950
For the calculation of semi-annual coupon payments,
Semi -annual coupon payment = Par value * Interest/2
$1000 * 0.09/2 = $45
Calculation of semi- annual yield to maturity
Let recall the following
YTM = yield to maturity
C = The semi-annual coupon payment
FV= Face value or par value
PV= Price of a bond
n = Maturity years of the bond
Therefore,
YTM= C + FV - PV/n/ FV + PV/2
which is
$45 + $1000 - $950/40/$1000 + $950 / 2 = 4.78%
The firm’s after-tax cost of debt is $45 + $1000 - $950/40/$1000 + $950 / 2 is semi- annual yield to maturity is = 4.78%
What is the Tax cost?
From the question given, we solve the issue
Then the calculation of the bond price is:
Price of bond is = per value * (1- flotation cost)
$1000 * (1- 0.05)
Therefore, = $950
For the calculation of semi-annual coupon payments,
Then Semi -annual coupon payment is = Par value * Interest/2
$1000 * 0.09/2 = $45
Computation of semi- annual yield to maturity
Let recall the following are:
Then YTM is = yield to maturity
After that C is = The semi-annual coupon payment
Then FV is = Face value or par value
Now, PV is = Price of a bond
n is = Maturity years of the bond
Thus,
YTM is = C + FV - PV/n/ FV + PV/2
which is $45 + $1000 - $950/40/$1000 + $950 / 2 is = 4.78%

The Retained earnings account has a credit balance of $23,800 before closing entries are made. Of total revenues for the period are $75,200, total expenses are $55,000, and dividends are $12,600, what is the ending balance in the Retained earnings account after all closing entries are made
Answer:
The ending balance in the retained earnings account is $31400.
Explanation:
The ending balance in the retained earnings accounts is equal to the opening balance of the retained earnings account plus the addition to the retained earnings for the year.
The addition to retained earnings will be the Net income less dividends.
The net income for the year was = 75200 - 55000 = $20200
Addition to Retained earnings = 20200 - 12600 = $7600
Closing balance of retained earnings = 23800 + 7600 = $31400
Aikmen Lab plans to purchase a new centrifuge machine for its Georgia facility. The machine costs $279,000 and is expected to have a useful life of 7 years, with a terminal disposal value of $50,000. Savings in cash operating costs are expected to be $63,000 per year. However, additional working capital is needed to keep the machine running efficiently. The working capital must continually be replaced, so an investment of $30,000 needs to be maintained at all times, but this investment is fully recoverable (will be "cashed in") at the end of the useful life. Aikmen Lab's required rate of return is 10%. Ignore income taxes in your analysis. Assume all cash flows occur at year-end except for initial investment amounts. Aikmen Lab uses straight-line depreciation for its machines.
Required:
1. Calculate net present value.
2. Calculate internal rate of return.
3. Calculate accrual accounting rate of return based on net initial investment.
4. Calculate accrual accounting rate of return based on average investment.
5. You have the authority to make the purchase decision. Why might you be reluctant to base your decision on the DCF methods?
Answer:
initial outlay costs of the project = $279,000 (machine) + $30,000 (additional working capital) = $309,000
CF1 = $63,000CF2 = $63,000CF3 = $63,000CF4 = $63,000CF5 = $63,000CF6 = $63,000CF7 = $63,000 + $50,000 (salvage value) + $30,000 (working capital) = $143,000discount rate = 10%
using an excel spreadsheet:
1) =NPV(10%,63000,63000,63000,63000,63000,63000,143000) = $347,763 - $309,000 = $38,763
2) =IRR(-309000,63000,63000,63000,63000,63000,63000,143000) = 13.34%
3) accounting rate of return based on net initial investment = average net profit / net initial investment
average net profit = $63,000 - $32,714 (depreciation cost) = $30,286net initial investment = $309,000accounting rate of return based on net initial investment = $30,286 / $309,000 = 9.8%
4) accounting rate of return based on average investment = average net profit / average investment
average net profit = $63,000 - $32,714 (depreciation cost) = $30,286average investment = ($309,000 + $80,000) / 2 = $194,500accounting rate of return based on average investment = $30,286 / $194,500 = 15.57%
5) Generally the discounted cash flow method is the most widely accepted way to determine whether a project should be accepted or not, and to be honest the NPV is positive and the IRR is higher than the required rate of return. The only rate that was lower was the accounting rate of return on net investment (9.8%) but it was really close.
