#7. X Company is trying to decide whether to continue using old equipment to make Product A or replace it with new equipment that will have lower operating costs. The following information is available:

• The new equipment will cost $50,000. Disposal value at the end of its 5-year useful life will be $5,500.
• The old equipment was purchased 3 years ago for $21,000. It can be sold immediately for $10,000 but will have zero disposal value in 5 years.
• Maintenance work, costing $3,500, will be necessary on the new equipment in Year 4.
• The new equipment will result in $9,000 of operating cost savings each year.

Assuming a discount rate of 5%, what is the net present value of replacing the old equipment with the new equipment?

Silvana Zhang of Sajjad Jafri & Geopeng Li Limited is considering purchasing a new widget making machine. The new machine will replace the existing machine, which has a current market value of $1,000,000. New machine will reduce before tax operating cost by $300,000 per year for 15 years. The old machine is expected to last for another 10 years and will have a salvage value of $100,000 at the end of 10 years. The new machine is expected to last for 15 years and will have a salvage value of $200,000. CCA rate is 20%, tax rate is 30%, and the required rate of return is 15%

She would like to know the maximum price she should pay for the new machine.

Cully Company needs to raise $45 million to start a new project and will raise the money by selling new bonds. The company will generate no internal equity for the foreseeable future. The company has a target capital structure of 60 percent common stock, 5 percent preferred stock, and 35 percent debt.

We will simulate a dice game in which 2 dice are thrown.

• If the roll is 7 or 11, you win.
• If the roll is 2, 3, or 12, you lose
• If the roll is any other value, it establishes a point.
  • If with a point established, that point is rolled again before a 7, you win.
  • If, with a point established, a 7 is rolled before the point is rolled again you lose.

Build your algorithm incrementally. First write a program that simulates a roll of two dice, then outputs if it is a simple win (7 or 11), or a simple loss (2 or 3 or 12), or something else.

1. Here is the algorithm.

//get a random number between 1 and 6, call it d1

//get a second random number between 1 and 6, call it d2.

//get the total & print it so we know what it was

//If the total is 7 or 11 print “Congratulations, you win”

//If the total is 2 or 3 or 12 print “You lose”

//If neither of these print “something else”  

2. Now fix the part where we wrote “something else”. In this case, we rolled a number which we called total. We need to keep rolling the dice and looking at the new total each time. Output the new total each time so you can check if your program is working correctly. If the new total is the same as the total, we win. If the new total is 7, we lose. And if something else we roll again……

Sample output:

The total is 10
The new total is 8
The new total is 10
You win

Sample output:

The total is 9
The new total is 4
The new total is 8
The new total is 10
The new total is 5
The new total is 7
You lose

Sample output:

The total is 7
Congratulations, you win

Sample output:

The total is 12
You lose
