You are serving on a jury. A plaintiff is suing the city for injuries sustained after a freak street-sweeper accident. In the trial, doctors testified that it will be five years before the plaintiff is able to return to work. The jury has already decided in favor of the plaintiff. You are the foreperson of the jury and propose that the jury give the plaintiff an award to cover the following:

(a)

The present value of two years’ back pay. The plaintiff’s annual salary for the last two years would have been $67,000 and $70,000, respectively.

(b)

The present value of five years’ future salary. You assume the salary will be $73,000 per year.

(c) $245,000 for pain and suffering.
(d)

$40,000 for court costs.

Assume the salary payments are equal amounts paid at the end of each month.

If the interest rate you choose is an EAR of 8 percent, what is the size of the settlement?

The Riteway Ad Agency provides cars for its sales staff. In the past, the company has always purchased its cars from a dealer and then sold the cars after three years of use. The company’s present fleet of cars is three years old and will be sold very shortly. To provide a replacement fleet, the company is considering two alternatives:

Purchase alternative: The company can purchase the cars, as in the past, and sell the cars after three years of use. Ten cars will be needed, which can be purchased at a discounted price of $15,000 each. If this alternative is accepted, the following costs will be incurred on the fleet as a whole:
Annual cost of servicing, taxes, and licensing $ 4,800
Repairs, first year $ 2,700
Repairs, second year $ 5,200
Repairs, third year $ 7,200

At the end of three years, the fleet could be sold for one-half of the original purchase price.

Lease alternative: The company can lease the cars under a three-year lease contract. The lease cost would be $67,000 per year (the first payment due at the end of Year 1). As part of this lease cost, the owner would provide all servicing and repairs, license the cars, and pay all the taxes. Riteway would be required to make a $13,500 security deposit at the beginning of the lease period, which would be refunded when the cars were returned to the owner at the end of the lease contract.

Riteway Ad Agency’s required rate of return is 17%.

Required:    

1. What is the net present value of the cash flows associated with the purchase alternative?

2. What is the net present value of the cash flows associated with the lease alternative?

3. Which alternative should the company accept?

DataSpan, Inc., automated its plant at the start of the current year and installed a flexible manufacturing system. The company is also evaluating its suppliers and moving toward Lean Production. Many adjustment problems have been encountered, including problems relating to performance measurement. After much study, the company has decided to use the performance measures below, and it has gathered data relating to these measures for the first four months of operations.

Month
1 2 3 4
Throughput time (days) ? ? ? ?
Delivery cycle time (days) ? ? ? ?
Manufacturing cycle efficiency (MCE) ? ? ? ?
Percentage of on-time deliveries 88 % 83 % 80 % 77 %
Total sales (units) 2830 2709 2570 2473

Management has asked for your help in computing throughput time, delivery cycle time, and MCE. The following average times have been logged over the last four months:

Average per Month (in days)
1 2 3 4
Move time per unit 0.9 0.6 0.7 0.7
Process time per unit 3.8 3.6 3.4 3.2
Wait time per order before start of production 18.0 19.7 22.0 23.8
Queue time per unit 4.5 5.1 5.8 6.6
Inspection time per unit 0.8 1.0 1.0 0.8


Required:

1-a. Compute the throughput time for each month.

1-b. Compute the delivery cycle time for each month.

1-c. Compute the manufacturing cycle efficiency (MCE) for each month.

2. Evaluate the company’s performance over the last four months.

3-a. Refer to the move time, process time, and so forth, given for month 4. Assume that in month 5 the move time, process time, and so forth, are the same as in month 4, except that through the use of Lean Production the company is able to completely eliminate the queue time during production. Compute the new throughput time and MCE.

3-b. Refer to the move time, process time, and so forth, given for month 4. Assume in month 6 that the move time, process time, and so forth, are again the same as in month 4, except that the company is able to completely eliminate both the queue time during production and the inspection time. Compute the new throughput time and MCE.
