The local franchise of Jiffy Lube is thinking of buying a new lift for $80,000 that would make it easier to access the oil filter in customers' cars and save labor. The savings would increase over the project's 3-year life, in line with the projected growth of the business:

A B C D
1 Year 1 2 3
2 Cost savings 90,000 99,000 118,800
The machine is to be linearly depreciated to zero and will have no resale value after 3 years. The company uses a discount rate of 11% and has a tax rate of 21%.

  1. Between 2006 and 2009, Betty appeared in 23 episodes of The Bold and The Beautiful. The work was quite different from her time on sitcoms. This led her to think about the following hypotheses:

H0: Soap opera acting is the same difficulty as sitcom acting

Ha: Soap opera acting is harder than sitcom acting

Describe what a Type I error would look like in the context of this scenario.

Calculate the present value of the concession using a discount rate of 6%. Cash flows are reported in Table 1 for each ten-year block up until 2066–2075 with the last block as five years (2076–2081). Assume in your calculations that cash flows are spread evenly during those blocks. Explain your calculations showing for each year the applicable discount rate and for each block the present value.

PS:please calculate in order to see and understand the PV for each block

Between 2006 and 2008, Sony and Toshiba were in a format war in the market for

high-definition optical discs. Sony had developed Blu-ray discs whereas Toshiba

had developed the HD-DVD format. Both producers were manufacturing players

for their own format. However, unless Sony and Toshiba agreed on producing

only one particular format, consumers were holding off their purchases. They

feared, should they buy a player, that they risked having invested in the wrong

format, leaving them unable to play content on high-definition optical discs. Both

producers could choose either format in the production of players. Sony could

produce HD-DVD players; in that case, they would have to pay $20 Billion royalties

per year to Toshiba if they sell any players. Toshiba could produce Blu-ray players;

in that case, they would have to pay $20 Billion royalties per year to Sony if they

sell any players. Assume that, if Sony and Toshiba agree on one format, they

would have a profit of $100 Billion in players each per year before eventual royalty

payments.

(a) What are the components of a strategic game? Model the interaction be-

tween Sony and Toshiba as a strategic game, in which Sony's and Toshiba's

strategies are given by the format of the high-definition disc players they

produce and their preferences are given by their profits after paying for or

receiving royalties.
