A person without a lower limb or limbs may face huge cost to get prosthetic legs. A metal prosthesis can cost up to RM10,000 depending on the specifications and requirement of the patient. Cane furniture was made by bending the stem in such beautiful shapes that could also hold human weight. The usage of sustainable materials such as cane may help the sustainability of life of a person without a limb by ensuring it is affordable and available to people of all levels as well as helped the sustainability of the environment. However, one question - can you make a leg out of a cane? Discuss.

Dillon, Jones, and Kline, Ltd. is studying the acquisition of two electrical component insertion systems for producing its sole product, the universal gismo. Data relevant to the systems follow. Model A: Variable costs, $17.00 per unit Annual fixed costs, $986,400 Model B: Variable costs, $11.80 per unit Annual fixed costs, $1,114,000 The selling price is $68 per unit for the universal gismo, which is subject to a 5 percent sales commission. (In the following requirements, ignore income taxes.)
How many units must the company sell to break even if Model A is selected? Calculate the net income of the two systems if sales and production are expected to average 42,000 units per year and which of the two systems would be more profitable? Assume Model B requires the purchase of additional equipment that is not reflected in the preceding figures. The equipment will cost $450,000 and will be depreciated over a five-year life by the straight-line method. How many units must the company sell to earn $973,000 of income if Model B is selected? As in requirement (2), sales and production are expected to average 42,000 units per year. Ignoring the information presented in part (3), at what volume level will the annual total cost of each system be equal? |

I'm trying to make this C++ loan calculator but I can't get the program to output what I need. For instance I know the formula is right and when I enter 100000 1.5 20 as my cin variables I should get 482.55 but I get 1543.31. What am I not seeing as the issue? Also this should cout only 2 decimal places right? I'm not allowed to alter the #include and add any fixed setprecision.
This is what I have.
#include <iostream>
#include <cmath>
using namespace std;
int main() {
// ---------------- Add code here
--------------------
// -- Declare necessary variables
here
--
int years = 0;
int LoanAmount = 0;
double AnnualRate = 0.0;
double moPayment = 0.00;
// --
cout << "Enter the amount, rate as a
percentage (e.g. 3.25), and number of years\n";
cout << " separated by spaces: " <<
endl;
// ---------------- Add code here
--------------------
// -- Receive input and compute the monthly payment
--
cin >> LoanAmount >> AnnualRate >>
years;
AnnualRate = AnnualRate / 100;
//rate to decimal
years = years * 12; //years to
months
moPayment = (LoanAmount * AnnualRate) / (1 - pow(1 +
AnnualRate, -years));
// ---------------- Add code here
------------------
// Print out the answer as a double, all by
itself
// (no text) followed by a newline
// Ex. cout << payment << endl;
cout << moPayment << endl;
return 0;

You would like to buy a house that costs $350,000. You have $50,000 in cash that you can put down on the house, but you need to borrow the rest of the purchase price. The bank is offering a 30-year mortgage that requires annual payments and has an interest rate of 7% per year. You can afford to pay only $23,500 per year. The bank agrees to allow you to pay this amount each year, yet still borrow $300,000. At the end of the mortgage (in 30 years), you must make a balloon payment; that is, you must repay the remaining balance on the mortgage. How much will this balloon payment be?
The PV of the annuity is (Round to the nearest dollar.)
The balloon payment is (Round to the nearest dollar.)

Etonic Inc. is considering an investment of $375,000 in an asset with an economic life of 5 years. The firm estimates that the nominal annual cash revenues and expenses at the end of the first year will be $255,000 and $80,000, respectively. Both revenues and expenses will grow thereafter at the annual inflation rate of 3 percent. The company will use the straight-line method to depreciate its asset to zero over five years. The salvage value of the asset is estimated to be $55,000 in nominal terms at that time. The one-time net working capital investment of $15,000 is required immediately and will be recovered at the end of the project. The corporate tax rate is 38 percent. |
What is the project’s total nominal cash flow from assets for each year? (A negative answers should be indicated by a minus sign. Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answers to the nearest whole number, e.g., 32.) |

Problem 11-20 Project Analysis [LO1, 2]
McGilla Golf has decided to sell a new line of golf clubs. The clubs will sell for $865 per set and have a variable cost of $425 per set. The company has spent $340,000 for a marketing study that determined the company will sell 70,600 sets per year for seven years. The marketing study also determined that the company will lose sales of 13,800 sets of its high-priced clubs. The high-priced clubs sell at $1,235 and have variable costs of $695. The company will also increase sales of its cheap clubs by 15,800 sets. The cheap clubs sell for $455 and have variable costs of $245 per set. The fixed costs each year will be $10,750,000. The company has also spent $2,900,000 on research and development for the new clubs. The plant and equipment required will cost $39,200,000 and will be depreciated on a straight-line basis. The new clubs will also require an increase in net working capital of $3,600,000 that will be returned at the end of the project. The tax rate is 24 percent, and the cost of capital is 12 percent. |
