An iron ore of 50x10^6 ton was produced during 15 years and has been sold for $100 per ton Estimate the required investment if 0.4 turnover ratio was considered. If produced ton costs $28, what would be the net present value of the project when 8% safe rate and 15% rate of return assuming that the Investment will be depreciated within 15 years?

An investment of P 250,000 can be made in a project that will produce a uniform annual revenue of P 192,800 for 5 years and then have a salvage value of 10% of the first cost. Operation and maintenance will be P 72,000 per year. Taxes and insurance will be 4% of the first cost per year. The company expects capital to earn 20% before income taxes. Show whether or not the investment is justified economically using1. ROR method2. payout method
A convertible bond has a par value of $1,000, but its current market price is $950. The current priceof the issuing company's stock is $19, and the conversion ratio is 40 shares. The bond's conversionpremium is _________.
An equipment has a first cost of 500,000 PHP and the cost of installation is 30,000 PHP. At the end of its economic life of 35,000 operating hours, the salvage value is 10% of the equipment cost. Determine its book value at the end of the third year if its annual usage is 5,200hours.
An expansion of the current BIM (Building Information Model) software has been proposed to First Financial, the building’s owner. A total installed cost of $120,000 is expected to generate additional savings of $40,000 per year for 10 years, after which time the software will be replaced with no salvage value. The annual M&O cost is expected to be $10,000 the first year and increase by an arithmetic gradient G between $1000 and $5000 per year thereafter. Determine if the expanded BIM is sensitive to gradient increases of $1000 (optimistic), $3000 (most likely), and $5000 (pessimistic) per year. Use AW analysis and a MARR of 10% per year.
Another answer. A fixed capital investment of 12,000,000 pesos is required for a production plant and an estimated working capital of 3,000,000 pesos. Annual depreciation is estimated to be 15% of the capital investment. Determine the rate of return on the total investment and the length of time to recover it if the annual profit is 2,800,000 pesos. Show Complete solution on a clear paper.
Nuclear safety devices installed several years ago have been depreciated from a first cost of $200,000 to zero using the Modified Accelerated Cost Recovery System (MACRS). The devices can be sold on the used equipment market for an estimated $15,000, or they can be retained in service for 5 more years with a $9000 upgrade now and an operating expenses (OE) of $6000 per year. The upgrade investment will be depreciated over 3 years with no salvage value. The challenger is a replacement with newer technology at a first cost of $40,000, n = 5 years, and S = 0. The new units will have operating expenses of $7000 per year. Use a 5-year study period, an effective tax rate of 41%, an after-tax minimum acceptable rate of return (MARR) of 18% per year, and an assumption of classical straight line depreciation (no half-year convention) to perform an after-tax AW-based replacement study. The annual worth of the defender is determined to be $ . The annual worth of the challenger is…
Peachtree Construction Company, a highway contractor, is considering the purchase of a new trench excavator that costs 300000 and can dig a 3-foot-wide trench at the rate of 16 feet per hour. The contractor gets paid according to the usage of the equipment, 100 per hour. The expected average annual usage is 500 hours, and maintenance and operating costs will be 10 per hour. The contractor will depreciate the equipment by using a five-year MACRS, units-of-production method. At the end of five years, the excavator will be sold for 100000. Assuming the contractor’s marginal tax rate is 25% per year, determine the annual after-tax cash flow. In excel.
install cost of the new machinery is $400,000 and is expected to last for 5 years. The salvage value is expected to be $30,000 in today’s dollars. Revenue is expected to increase by $40,000 while operating costs are expected to increase $2500 (both actual). Determine the present worth of the project, assuming an (actual) MARR of 10%, a CCA rate of 10% and a corporate tax rate of 15%.
A chemical plant worth P 110M has an estimated life of 6 years and a projected scrap value of P 10M. after 3 years of operation an explosion made it a total loss. How much money would have to be raised to put up a new plant costing P 150M, if depreciation reserved had been maintained during its 3 years of operation by Straight Line method?
A project capitalized for ₱40,000 invested in depreciable assets will earn a uniform, annual income of ₱23451 in 10 years. The cost for operation and maintenance total ₱9,000 a year, and annual taxes and insurance will cost 4% of the investment. The company expects its capital to earn 12% before income taxes. Determine the rate of return of the project.
A computer set cost of P56,000. Other expenses including installation of anti-virus amounted to P4,000.00. The set predicted to have a life of 16 years with a salvage value of 10% of the original cost. Determine the book value at the end of 12 years by SLM. a. 12,879 b. 21,907 c. 19,500 d. 22,850
A steam generation system at a biomass-fueled power plant uses an electrostaticprecipitator (ESP) to clean its gaseous effluents. The power plant has consistently made use ofthe same type of ESP over the past several years. The installed cost of a new ESP has beenrelatively constant at $100,000. Records of operation and maintenance expenses indicate thefollowing average expenses per year as a function of the age of the ESP. The MVs of the ESP arealso reasonably well known as a function of age. Data graph in image attached. Determine the best time to replace the ESP if the MARR is 15% per year.
