Hi, i need the answer for question #1 on the document attached.

MGTB03 Final Exam Review Questions Chapter 13 Ibrahim Asafi, the general manager of the Coronado Company, is contemplating replacing the existing assembly-line equipment in the Assembly Department with automated assembly equipment. Production output and revenues will be unaffected by the replacement decision. Transactions related to the capital investment are cash transactions that would occur today. Existing Assembly Equipment Original cost Useful life Current age Useful life remaining Accumulated amortization Book value Current disposal price (in cash) Terminal disposal price (in cash, in 5 years) Average working capital needed $1,100,000 11 years 6 years 5 years $600,000 $500,000 $200,000 $0 $120,000 New Automated Assembly Equipment $1,200,000 5 years 0 years 5 years $0 Not acquired yet Not acquired yet $0 $70,000 Current annual Assembly Department costs are as follow: Direct materials Direct manufacturing labour Amortization Maintenance and repairs Other operating costs Supervision (allocated as 10% of direct manufacturing labour costs) Allocated rent (based on space used) Allocate corporate overhead (based on direct manufacturing labour costs) Total $600,000 400,000 100,000 150,000 50,000 40,000 40,000 120,000 $1,500,000 Additional Information a. Coronado uses straight-line amortization calculated on the difference between the initial equipment investment and the terminal disposal price of the equipment. b. The new equipment will produce output more swiftly. Therefore, the average working capital investment, if the new equipment is purchased, will decrease. c. Of the total direct materials costs, $120,000 is waste and scrap. The new equipment is expected to reduce scrap costs to $20,000 d. The new equipment is expected to reduce direct manufacturing labour costs by $150,000 each year. e. Maintenance and repairs on the old equipment have been excessive. If the new equipment is acquired, maintenance and repair costs are expected to decrease to $100,000. f. Coronado collects all supervision costs for all manufacturing departments in the plant into one cost pool. These costs are then allocated to departments on the basis of direct manufacturing labour costs. The Assembly Department has only one supervisor currently. The supervisor will continue in her current position if the new equipment is purchased. g. The new equipment will reduce the space required for assembly operation by 20%, reducing allocated rent by $8,000. The Coronado Company has no alternative uses for this extra space. h. Corporate overhead costs are allocated to each department at 30% of direct manufacturing labour costs of each department. Coronado estimates a required rate of return of 12% for this project. Required: 1. On the basis of the net present value method, should Asafi replace the existing assembly equipment? 2. Suppose that next year is the last year Coronado will offer the attractive bonus plan currently in place. Asafi's bonus hinges on short-run accrual accounting income for that year. Will Asafi be inclined to replace the Assembly Department equipment? Provide quantitative support for our answer. Chapter 18 - Additional Question NSC is considering purchasing a new computer network for $72,000. It will require additional working capital of 8,000. Its anticipated sevenyear life will generate additional client revenue of $31,000 annually with operating costs, excluding amortization, of $14,000. The straight-line amortization method would be used. At the end of seven years it will have a salvage value of $9,000 and return $8,000 in working capital. NSC's income tax rate is 40%. Required: A. If NSC has a required rate of return of 12%, what is the net present value of the proposed investment? B. What is the point of indifference in terms of the incremental cash flow? C. What is the payback period? D. What is the accrual accounting rate of return? E. Assume NSC will raise 50% of the proposed investment from the First Canadian Bank at 6%, 30% from retained earnings at 12%, and the rest of the funds from new shareholders at 14%. What is NSC's EVA for this investment? F. Assume NSC's net income and the total assets are $60,000 and $320,000 respectively. What is NSC's residual income before the new investment and after the new investment? Chapter 7 1. A firm produces and sells two products, Alpha and Zeta.

Information pertaining to Omega Company's sales revenue forecast is presented in the following table: February March April Cash sales $160,000 $150,000 $120,000 Credit sales 300,000 400,000 280,000 Total sales $460,000 $550,000 $400,000 Omega's Management estimates that five percent of credit sales are not collectible. Of the credit sales that are collectible, 60 percent are collected in the month of sale and the remainder in the month following the sale. Cost of purchases of inventory each month are 70 percent of the next month's projected total sales. All purchases of inventory are on account; 25 percent are paid in the month of purchase, and the remainder is paid in the month following the purchase. 5. Omega's budgeted total cash receipts in April would be: (A) $328,000. (B) $431,600. (C) $437,000. (D) $448,000. 6. Omega's budgeted total cash payments in March for inventory purchases would be: (A) $280,000. (B) $306,250. (C) $358,750. (D) $385,000. Chapter 4 Omega Industries uses ten units of Z each month in the production of scientific equipment. The unit cost to manufacturing one unit of Z is presented below. Direct materials $ 4,000 Materials handling (10% of direct materials cost) 400 Direct manufacturing labour 6,000 Indirect manufacturing (200% of direct labour) 12,000 Total manufacturing cost $22,400 Materials handling represents the direct variable costs of the Receiving Department that are applied to direct materials and purchased components on the basis of their cost. This is a separate charge in addition to indirect manufacturing cost. Omega's annual indirect manufacturing cost budget is one-fourth variable and three-fourths fixed. Alpha Manufacturing, one of Omega's reliable vendors, has offered to supply Zs at a unit price of $17,000. 7.

Chapter 14 The Delta Manufacturing Company has two divisions in Ontario, Canada, Division One and Division Two. Currently, Division Two buys a part (10,000 units) from Division One for $16 per unit. Division One has purchased new equipment and wants to increase the price to Division Two to $18 per unit. The controller of Division Two claims that she cannot afford to go that high, as it will decrease the Division Two's profit to near zero. Division Two can buy the part from an outside supplier for $16 per unit. The incremental costs per unit that Delta incurs to produce each unit are Division One's variable costs of $12. Fixed costs per unit for Division One with the recent purchase of equipment are $5. 11.Division One has no alternative uses for its facilities. Should Division Two continue to buy from Division One or buy from the external supplier? Company as a whole Division Two only (A) Buy from Division One Buy from external supplier (B) Buy from external supplier Buy from Division One (C) Buy from Division One Buy from Division One (D) Buy from external supplier Buy from external supplier 12.If Delta would prefer to negotiate a transfer price between the divisions, what range of transfer prices would be used?
