An investment carrying a current cost of $130,000 is going to generate $70,000 of revenue in each of the next three years. To calculate the internal rate of return we need to:

options:

calculate the present value of each of the $70,000 payments and multiply these and set this equal to $130,000.

take the present value of $210,000 for three years from now and set this equal to $130,000.

set the sum of the present value of $70,000 for each of the next three years equal to $130,000.

subtract $130,000 from $210,000 and set this difference equal to the interest rate.

A few years ago, it cost millions of dollars to outfit a store the size of a 7-Eleven with cameras and a high-performance computer server for cashierless technology. Now, it costs anywhere from $100,000 to $300,000 to outfit the same size store, depending on how many cameras and the type of hardware used. Based on this information, how quickly will cashierless technology diffuse?

QUESTION 1

Equipment with a cost of $75,809.00, an estimated residual value of $4,582.00, and an estimated life of 13 years was depreciated by the straight-line method for 4 years. Due to obsolescence, it was determined that the remaining useful life should be shortened by 3 years and the residual value changed to zero. The depreciation expense for the current and future years is

The Boxwood Company sells blankets for $ 37.00 each. The following was taken from the inventory records during May. The company had no beginning inventory on May 1.

Assuming that the company uses the perpetual inventory system, determine the ending inventory value for the month of May using the FIFO inventory cost method.

QUESTION 3

Use the given data to find a regression line that best fits the price-demand data for price p in dollars as a function of the demand x widgets. Here, price is the dependent variable, and demand is the independent variable. Find the regression function for price, and write it as p ( x ) = m x + b.Find the regression function for price, and write it as p ( x ) = m x + b.

• Does it look like the regression line models the data well? Why or why not?
• Use the regression function you found to estimate p ( x ) for specific values of x. Give the real-world interpretation of the result of such computations in complete sentences. Be sure to include units.
• Find the value of x would make p ( x ) = 0. Give the real-world interpretation of the result of the computation in complete sentences. Be sure to include units.
