Exercise 14-3 (Algo) Internal Rate of Return [LO14-3]
Wendell’s Donut Shoppe is investigating the purchase of a new $42,800 donut-making machine. The new machine would permit the company to reduce the amount of part-time help needed, at a cost savings of $5,700 per year. In addition, the new machine would allow the company to produce one new style of donut, resulting in the sale of 2,500 dozen more donuts each year. The company realizes a contribution margin of $1.50 per dozen donuts sold. The new machine would have a six-year useful life.

Q.23 HM motors is considering eliminating its mountain bike division, which reported an operating
loss for the recent year of P3,000.
The division sales for the year = P1,050,000, variable costs = P860,000
Fixed costs of the division =P193,000
If the mountain bike division is dropped, 30% of the fixed costs allocated to that division could be
eliminated.
The impact on operating income for eliminating this business segment would be:
a.57,900 decrease
b.132,100 decrease
c.54,900 decrease
d.190,000 increase

- You received no credit for this question in the previous attempt. Problem 10-28 Equivalent Annual Cost [LO4] Light emitting diodes (LED) light bulbs have become required in recent years, but do they make financial sense? Suppose a typical 60-watt incandescent light bulb costs $.48 and lasts 1,000 hours. A 15-watt LED, which provides the same light, costs $3.55 and lasts for 12,000 hours. A kilowatt-hour of electricity costs $.124. A kilowatt-hour is 1,000 watts for 1 hour. If you require a return of 10 percent and use a light fixture 500 hours per year, what is the equivalent annual cost of each light bulb? (A negative answer should be indicated by a minus sign.

Enough capacity exists in the company's plant to produce 30,200 units of the toy each month. Variable expenses to manufacture and sell one unit would be $2.02, and fixed expenses associated with the toy would total $52,954 per month.
