Pompeii’s Pizza has a delivery car that it uses for pizza deliveries. The transmission needs to be replaced and there are several other repairs that need to be done. The car is nearing the end of its life, so the options are to either overhaul the car or replace it with a new car. Pompeii’s has put together the following budgetary items:
If Pompeii’s replaces the transmission of the pizza delivery vehicle, they expect to be able to use the vehicle for another 5 years. If they sell the old vehicle and purchase a new vehicle, they will use that vehicle for 5 years and then trade for in for another new pizza delivery vehicle. If they trade for the new delivery vehicle, their operating expenses will decrease because the new vehicle is more gas efficient and the maintenance on a new car is less. This project is analyzed using a discount rate of 12%. What should Pompeii’s do?

- The School District is considering the purchase of two school buses. At present, school children are transported to and from the schools in the area using private bus drivers. The new school buses will cost US$54,530 and will have a useful life of 11 years. They will have negligible scrap value, which can be ignored. The new school buses would be more cost-effective, resulting in labor savings of $10,000 per year. What are the Factor of the Internal Rate of Return, and the discount factor (%) that will give a Net Present Value of 0?arrow_forwardAngelus Press is considering replacing all of its old cash registers with new ones. The old registers are fully depreciated and have no disposal value and will be sold for $ $50,000. The new registers cost $ 680,000. Because the new registers are more efficient than the old registers, Angelus Press will have annual cost savings from using the new registers in the amount of $140,000, for the first four years and then $ 100,000 for the remaining two years. The registers have a 6-year useful ife, and are depreciated using the straight line method with no disposal value. Angelus Press require a 12% real rate of return.

Since the company is considering cost reduction strategies in response to the economic uncertainty, this news was unfavorable. But Lockden realized that the overhaul is important and has decided to do the overhaul during the first quarter of 2020. The overhaul will cost US$100,000,7 and the machine will not be operational during the overhaul (i.e., the entire duration of the first quarter). The company is exploring the viability of the following options to handle this operational challenge: Option 1: Lockitt, Inc. will run the functional molding machine two shifts per day, instead of one. Since LB075 labor is paid hourly, this proposal will not change the labor hours required. But the company must pay a higher wage rate to the employees in the second shift, causing the average LB075 rate to increase to $45 per hour.…arrow_forward
