Best-Buy Computers advertises a popular laptop computer for $1,999.95. The same system may be leased for 24 months at $99 per month (at the beginning of each month). At the end of the lease, the system may be purchased for 10% of the retail price. Should you lease or purchase the computer if you obtain a two-year loan at 7% compounded annually to purchase the computer?

A machine shop is trying to decide which of two types of metal lathe to purchase. The more versatile Japanese lathe costs $32,000, and will generate an annual profit of $16,000 for three years. Its trade-in value after three years will be about $10,000. The more durable German lathe costs $42,000, and will increase profits by $12,000 per year for six years. Its trade-in value at that point is estimated at $15,000. Assuming a cost of capital of 10%, use the Replacement Chain method to decide which lathe should be purchased. What is the difference in net present value between the two projects?

Go with the Japanese option at $26,799.98 NPV which is greater than the German NPV of $18,730.24

A $600,000 capital investment will produce annual profits of $90,000 for the first four years and $120,000 for the next four years. It will have no residual value. What is its IRR? Should investments be undertaken if the cost of capital is 7%?

IRR = 7.6%. The investment should be undertaken since its IRR is greater than the cost of capital (7%)

Half way through its term, the balance in a sinking fund will be: half of the goal (future value). less than half of the goal (future value). more than half of the goal (future value).

Less than half of the goal (future value) - because interest keeps growing and gets bigger and bigger - think of sinking fund schedule

Increasing your regular loan payments by 10% will shorten the loan amortization period by: more than 10%. less than 10%. 10% exactly.

A new machine that will lead to savings in labour costs of $20,000 per year can be purchased for $80,000. However, it will cost $2000 per year for the first four years, and $3000 per year for the next four years to service and maintain the machine. In addition, its annual fuel consumption will cost $1500. After a service life of eight years, the salvage value of the machine is expected to be $10,000. Should the machine be acquired if the company requires a minimum annual rate of return on investment of 8%?

NPV = $17,788. The machine should be acquired

A proposed open-pit mine would require the investment of $3 million at the beginning of the first year and a further investment of $1 million at the end of the first year. Mining operations are expected to yield annual profits of $750,000, beginning in Year 2. The ore body will sustain eight years of ore extraction. At the beginning of the tenth year, the mining company must spend $1 million on cleanup and environmental restoration. Will the project provide the mining company with a rate of return exceeding its 5.5% cost of capital?

NPV = -$62,250. The project will not provide a rate of return exceeding 5.5%

An investor requires a return of 15% on projects that she invests in. She has looked at a potential project and calculated that the internal rate of return (IRR) for the project is 12%. The correct decision would be to: proceed with the project because the IRR is smaller than her required rate of return. not invest in the project because the IRR is lower than her required rate of return. proceed with the project because the IRR is still larger than 10%.

Not invest because IRR is lower than her required rate of return

Machine X costs $50,000 and its forecast to generate an annual profit of $16,000 for five years. Machine Y, priced at $72,000, will produce the same annual profit for ten years. The trade-in value of X after five years is expected to be $10,000, and the resale value of Y after ten years is also thought to be $10,000. If either machine satisfies the firm's requirements, which one should be selected? Use a required return of 8%

PMT(X) = $5182. PMT(Y) = $5960 Machine Y should be selected because its equivalent annual cash flow is $778 larger

A potential project has a net present value (NPV) of $28,356. This amount includes the initial cash outlay of $30,000. The correct decision would be to: cancel the project because the NPV is lower than the initial cash outlay. proceed with the project because the NPV is positive.

A firm can manufacture the same product with either of two machines. Machine C requires an initial investment of $55,000 and would earn a profit of $30,000 per year for three years. It would then be replaced, because repairs would be required too frequently after three years. Its trade-in value would be $10,000. Machine D costs $90,000 and would have a service life of five years. The annual profit would be $5000 higher than Machine C's profit because of its lower repair and maintenance costs. Its recoverable value after five years would be about $20,000. Which machine should be purchased if the firm's cost of capital is 9%? What is the equivalent annual economic advantage of the preferred choice?

Purchase Machine D because it has a $3880 larger annual economic advantage

It can buy the plane for $360,000 using funds borrowed at 7.5% compounded monthly, and then sell the plane for an estimated $140,000 after five years.

@chegg TVM function give them answer to work from The provincial government's Ministry of Fisheries requires a new patrol boat. The price of a Songster is $90,000, and its annual operating costs will be $10,000. It will be sold for about $20,000 after five years, and replaced. A more durable and more efficient Boston Wailer, priced at $110,000, would cost $8000 per year to operate, last seven years, and have a resale value of $40,000. If the provincial government pays an interest rate of 6.5% compounded annually on its midterm debt, which boat has the lower equivalent annual cost?

The Boston Wailer's equivalent annual cost is $4781 lower

^ important and need to figure out how got the capital gain yield for CS @@ Three years after the issue of a $10,000, 6.5% coupon, 25-year bond, the rate of return required in the bond market on similar long-term bonds is 5.8% compounded semi-annually a) What price would the bond sell for today? b) Calculate the interest yield (%), capital gain (or loss) yield (%), and total yield (%) assuming the owner bought the bond at the time of issue and sold the bond today.

a) N = 22x2 i/y = 5.8/2 PMT = (10,000 x 6.5%) / 2 FV = 10,000 CPT PV = $10,863.82 b) i) Interest yield: (325x2x3) / 10,000 = 19.5% ii) Capital Gain Yield: (10,863.82 / 10,000) / 10,000 = 8.64% iii) Total yield: 19.5% + 8.64% = 28.14%
