X Company is considering replacing one of its machines in order to save operating costs. Operating costs with the current machine are $64,000 per year; operating costs with the new machine are expected to be $35,385 per year. The new machine will cost $154,000 and will last for five years, at which time it can be sold for $2,500. The current machine will also last for five more years but will not be worth anything at that time. It cost $41,000 four years ago, but its current disposal value is only $4,000.

A) Assuming a discount rate of 8%, what is the incremental net present value of replacing the current machine?

B) Assume the following two changes: 1) both machines will last for six more years, 2) the salvage value of the new machine after six years will be zero. If X Company replaces the current equipment, what is the approximate internal rate of return [enter your answer as .XX, so 1% would be .01]?

For the following situation, state whether the CPA has violated the CHARTERED PROFESSIONAL ACCOUNTANTS OF ONTARIO Professional Rules of Conduct and/or Independence Standard, and explain your reasoning.

1. Martha, CPA, has a practice with two departments. One department performs assurance services and the other performs bookkeeping services. One of her publicly accountable audit clients lost its controller and the bookkeeping department provided controllership services for 30 days while the company searched for a new controller. As this was an emergency, it was necessary for Martha’s firm to provide the service because it has an intimate knowledge of the client’s system.

Suppose that the inverse demand function is described by, P = 60-4(q1 +q2), where q1 is the output of the incumbent firm and q2 is the output of the entrant. Let the labor cost per unit w = 6 and capital cost per unit be r = 6. In addition, each firm has a fixed setup cost of f. (a) Suppose that in stage one the incumbent invests in capacity K1. Find the incum- bentís and entrantís best response functions in stage two. (8 pts) (b) Suppose that incumbent commits to a production capacity of K1 = 6, what is the entrantís best response? Calculate their profits as a function of f. (8 pts) (c) For fixed setup cost f = 25, what is the equilibrium? (7 pts) (d) For fixed setup cost f = 64, what is the equilibrium? (7 pts)

Company X operates a small factory in which it manufactures two products: C and D. Production and sales results for last year were as follows:

For purposes of simplicity, the firm averages total fixed costs over the total number of units produced. The research department has developed a new product (E) as a replacement for product D. Market studies show that the firm could sell 10,000 units of E next year at a price of TL117. The variable cost per unit of E is TL46. The introduction of E will lead to a 13% increase in demand for product C and discontinuation of product D. If the company does not introduce the new product, it expects next year’s results to be the same as last year’s.

9.Calculate net income for the next year if the company does not introduce product E.

10.Calculate net income for the next year if the company introduces product E.

Company X operates a small factory in which it manufactures two products: C and D. Production and sales results for last year were as follows:

Item C D

Units sold 9,000 20,000

Selling price per unit 98 75

Fixed cost per unit 24 24

For purposes of simplicity, the firm averages total fixed costs over the total number of units produced. The research department has developed a new product (E) as a replacement for product D. Market studies show that the firm could sell 10,000 units of E next year at a price of TL115. The variable cost per unit of E is TL47. The introduction of E will lead to a 11% increase in demand for product C and discontinuation of product D. If the company does not introduce the new product, it expects next year’s results to be the same as last year’s.

Q-1) Calculate net income for the next year if the company does not introduce product E.

Q-2) Calculate net income for the next year if the company introduces product E.
