Question 1 FNG Paint (Pty) Ltd produces finger paint and sells them to pre‐schools.The following information relates to a set of finger paint. A set of finger paint is considered to be one unit.
Direct labour needed for the first set of paint += 4 hoursDirect labour costs per unit = R30 per hourDirect material costs per unit = R25Total Fixed costs = R2 000Learning curve = 80%
Required:Using the learning curve theory and information provided above, calculate the expected average cost for one set of paint should four and sixteen sets be produced, respectively. Round off to two decimal places.
Sandhill’s managers have determined that variable costs per unit will increase by 20% beginning next month. To offset this increase in costs, they are considering a 20% increase in the sales price. Market research indicates that the price increase will result in a 2% decrease in the number of learning systems Sandhill sells. What will be Sandhill’s expected operating income if the price increase is implemented? (Round per unit calculations to 2 decimal places e.g. 52.75 and final answer to 0 decimal places, e.g. 5,275.)

Question ENGINEERING ECONOMICS
You want to launch a printing services business on campus. The initial cost to get the business running with a September 1st launch date would be $2,000. You estimate that the revenues would approximately offset your costs (e.g. paper, toner, etc.) in the first month of operation so that the monthly profit would be $0. Afterwards, you estimate that profits would increase by $80 each month until the end of the academic year (i.e. $80 profit in October, $160 profit in November, etc. until the end of April). Your annual MARR is 10%, compounded monthly. (a) Calculate the internal rate of return for your investment based on an 8 months study period. Select the appropriate IRR between options 1 to 4 below. (b) Suppose that you now consider another investment opportunity for your printing business services, also with monthly profits, and the internal rate of return of 3%. Is this alternative economically feasible based on IRR?
