Jorelle Company financial staff has been requested to review a proposed investment in new capital equipment. Applicable financial data is presented below. There will be no salvage value at the end of the investment's life and, due to realistic depreciation practices, it is estimated that the salvage value and net book value are equal at the end of each year.. All cash flows are assumed to take place at the end of each year. For investment proposals, Jorelle uses a 12% after-tax target rate of return.


The net present value for the investment proposal is

  1. $106,160
  2. $(97,970)
  3. $356,160
  4. $96,560

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

The NPV is the sum of the present values of all cash inflows and outflows associated with the proposal. If the NPV is positive, the proposal should be accepted. The NPV is determined by discounting each expected cash flow using the appropriate 12% interest factor for the present value of $1. Thus, the NPV is $106,160 [(.89 x $120,000) + (.80 x $108,000) + (.71 x $96,000) + (.64 x $84,000) + (.57 x $72,000) --(1.00 x $250,000)].

The traditional payback period for the investment proposal is

  1. Over5years.
  2. 2.23 years.
  3. 1.65 years.
  4. 2.83 years.

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

The traditional payback period is the number of periods required for the undiscounted expected cash flows to equal the original investment. When periodic cash flows are not expected to be uniform, a cumulative calculation is necessary. The first year's cashing flow is $120,000. Adding another $108,000 in Year 2 brings the total payback after 2 years to $228,000. Accordingly, the traditional payback period is about 2.23 years {2 + [($250,000 - $228,000) + $96,000 cash inflow in year 3}}

Kator Co. is a manufacturer of industrial components. One of their products that is used as a subcomponent in auto manufacturing is KB-96. This product has the following financial structure per unit


Kator Co. has received a special, one-time order for 1,000 KB-96 parts. Assuming Kator has excess capacity, the minimum price that is acceptable for this one-time special order is in excess of

  1. $47
  2. $50
  3. $60
  4. $77

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

A company must cover the incremental costs of a special order when it has excess capacity. The incremental costs for product KB-96 are $50 ($20 direct materials + $15 direct labor + $12 variable overhead + $3 shipping and handling). The fixed costs will not change as a result of the special order, so they are not relevant. Thus, any price in excess of $50 per unit is acceptable.

During the next year, KB-96 sales are expected to be 10000 units. All of the costs will remain the same except that fixed manufacturing overhead will increase by 20% and direct materials will increase by 10%. The selling price per unit for next year will be

  1. $620.000
  2. $750,000
  3. $1,080,000
  4. $1,110,000

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

Contribution margin equals sales minus variable costs. All variable costs will remain the same except that direct materials will increase to $22 per unit (1.1 x $20). Thus, total unit variable costs will be $52 ($22+ &15+$12+$3), and the contribution margin will be &1,080,000[10,000 units ($160 unit selling price -$52)].Kator Co. is a manufacturer of industrial components.
