CASE STUDY 1
Ann is 20 years old and has been working as a graphic designer for 3 years. She earns $35,000 per year in salary after tax. Because her family lives in a country town. Ann had to leave home to find employment and learn to look after herself and her finances.
She shares a flat with 2 friends and pays rent of $150 per week. She estimates that her other weekly expenses, on average, include public transport fares $45; food $120; utility bills $30; mobile phone $30; clothing $50; and miscellaneous expenses $60. She also makes sure that she is saving some of her income and for the past 2 years has arranged for an automatic debit of $300 per month from her bank account into a managed fund. The amount accumulated in the fund comprises the original $2500 she was given for her eighteenth birthday to start the fund and contributions and earnings of $7500, making a total sum of about $10,000. The managed fund is a balanced fund. Any money left over after expenses and investment is kept in her bank account, which totals $2000.
Ann’s main goal is to buy a car in the next 6 months if she can afford it. She will use some money in her managed fund if she has to, but hopes to buy a car valued at about $13000 plus insurance of $750 p.a. she is prepared to take on some extra work in a restaurant to earn another $150 per week in cash to help her to meet her goal.

Massey Machine Shop is considering a four-year project to improve its production efficiency. Six months ago, it contracted with Dr. Wright to provide a thorough study of whether there was a need for this four-year efficiency project. The report was delivered one month ago and it’s cost was $30,000. The report suggests that the company should go ahead with the project subject to Massey’s financial analysis. Buying a new machine press for $450,000 is estimated to result in $120,000 in annual pretax cost savings. The press falls in the MACRS five-year class and it will have a salvage value at the end of the project of $85,000. At time 0, the press will also require an additional investment in inventory of $9,000. Meanwhile, the accounts payable will increase by $3000. Every other current accounts remain the same. If the company’s tax rate is 20% and the discount rate is 12%, should the company accept the project? (30 pts). The MACRS schedule is as follows:

Question 58
Marigold, a large manufacturing company, currently uses a large printing press in its operations and is considering two replacements: the PDX341 and PDW581. The PDX costs $480,000 and has annual maintenance costs of $8,000 for the first 5 years and $13,000 for the next 10 years. After 15 years, the PDX will be scrapped (salvage value is zero). In contrast, the PDW can be acquired for $120,000 and requires maintenance of $26,000 a year for its 10-year life. The salvage value of the PDW is expected to be zero in 10 years. Assuming that Marigold must replace its current printing press (it has stopped functioning), it has a 9-percent cost of capital, and all cash flows are after tax, which replacement press is the most appropriate? (Round answers to 2 decimal places, e.g. 125.25.)
Chain Replication Approach:

10. In a study conducted to determine whether the role that sleep disorders play in academic performance, researcher conducted a survey of 1800 college students to determine if they had a sleep disorder. Of the 500 students with a sleep disorder, the mean GPA was 2.51 with a standard deviation of 0.85. Of the 1300 students without a sleep disorder, the mean GPA is 2.85 with a standard deviation of 0.78. Test the claim that sleep disorder adversely affects one’s GPA at the 0.05 level of significance?
