The Cornballer, invented by George Bluth in the mid-1970s, is a device used to make cornballs. Itsold for $29.95. Suppose that 10,000 Cornballers were sold in 1981; 11,000 in 1982; and salesincreasing by 10% each year until it was last sold in 1990 (when it was made illegal). Assume aninterest rate of 12% per year. Assume sales were made at EOY. What was the worth of these cashflows in 1980? Show in standard factor notation and show the cash flow diagrams.

A school building requires repainting. The surface area to be repainted is 1, 744 sq. mtrs. Two kinds of paint are available whose brands are A and B. Paint A cost ₱40 per sq. m. but needs renewal at the end of 4 yrs., while paint B cost ₱265 per sq. m. If money is worth 12% effective, how often should paint B be renewed so that it will be economical as paint A?
A vertical oil well has been drilled and completed. The productive zone is between the depths of 2,800 and 2,900 feet, you can assume there is oil in the entire thickness (gross = net). The average porosity is 10%, average water saturation is 20% and the oil formation volume factor is 1.3 RB/Stb. Other reservoirs with similar properties have drainage areas of 40 acres and the recovery factor 10.47305% (it is known with extreme precision!) a) Compute STOIIP and ultimate recovery, using the formals presented in lecture b) This well will also have a gas oil ratio (GOR) of 800 scf/bbl, how much gas is expected to be produced from this well?
Chambers Company has just gathered estimates forconducting a break-even analysis for a new product.Variable costs are $7 a unit. The additional plant willcost $48,000.
