Q1.
(a) 250
(1)Return full gas tank
Cost = tank 250 x 8.5 x 0.97 100
Cost = $20.6125
(2) Return without filling. Cost 250 X 8.5 x 1.15 it. Cost $24.4375
(3) Accept fixed price of Cost = $40
Cost in case of return full gas tank is lowest So it would return it wilth Ja full gos tank.
(b) 400 Km
(1) Return with full -gas_ Cost tank 400 x 8.5 x 0.97 100 Cost $32.98
(2) Return Cost without filling 400 X8-5 x 1.15 100 Cost = $39.
(3) Accept fixed price of $40 Cost = $40 " Cost in case of return with full gas tank" is return full gas
lowest . This is wall
(c) 800 km
(a)Return with full gos tank Cost = 800 x8.5\100 x 0.9
Cost = $66.96
(2) Return Cost = without filling
Cost= 800 X 8.5 \100 x 1.15 Cost= $78.2
(3) Accept fixed price of $40
Cost =$40
• Cost in case of accepting fixed price is lowest So I wall choose to accept fixed price.
(d) Additional cost of stopping $30 x 15\60=7.5$
(1) Cost of returning full tank when travel
250 km= 20.6125$ +7.5
=28.1125$
(2) Cost is still lower than all other alternatives So answer will not change in part (1)
cost of returning full tank when travel
400 Km= 32.98$ + 7.5
= 40.48$
I'm part (C) were already choosing to return the full tank . So answer will not change in bart (c)
Q2.
Area A :
Gravel pit capacity = 16 million cubic meters
Board restriction to fill inert material is to lower bottom area fill = 2 million cubic
meters
Cost of inert material placed in Area A = $9.40/m 3
Preparation cost = 2 x 106 x $9.40 = $18,800,000
Area B:
Gravel pit capacity = 14 million cubic meters
Difference in the haul
0.20 x 0 = 0
0.60 x 8.04 = 4.82
0.20 x -3.21 = -0.64
Total haul = 4.18 (which is an average additional haul)
Cost of additional haul = (4.18/25) * $140
= 23.40$
Since Truck capacity is 20 m3, additional cost per cubic yard = 23.49/20 m3 = $1.17
per m3
So, for 14 million m3, Total cost = 14 x 106 x $1.17 = $16,380,000
Area B has lower cost than Area A. Hence Area B is preferred.
Q3.
Total cost (TC) ($) = Fixed cost + Variable (labor) cost
= 2,000,000 + 9,109,000 = 11,109,000
Unit manufacturing cost = TC / Units sold = $11,101,000 / 23,000 = $482.65
(b) When second shift is added,
TC ($) = 2,400,000 + (9,109,000 x 1.25) = 2,400,000 + 11,376,250 = 13,785,250
Unit manufacturing cost = TC / Units sold = $13,785,250 / 46,000 = $299.96
So, unit manufacturing cost will decrease
Q4.
(a) There are two points (0, 0) and (1000, 20) lying on the total revenue curve
The total revenue equation is y = (20 - 0)x/(1000 - 0), that is y = 0.02x
(b) There are two points (0, 10) and (1000, 20) lying on the total cost curve
The total cost equation is y - 10 = (20 - 10)(x - 0)/(1000 - 0), that is y = 0.01x + 10
(c) The breakeven level of x is x = 1000
(d) Since 1500 > 1000, if we sell 1500 units, we will have a profit
(e) Marginal cost is MC = 0.01 (* 10^4) dollars
Average cost is AC = 0.01 + 10/x = 0.01 + 10/1500 = 0.017 (* 10^4) dollars
Q6.
1. Now: PV = - Rs 100,000
2. Year 1: PV = Rs 25,000 / 1.08 = Rs 23,148.15
3. Year 2: PV = Rs 45,000 / 1.082 = Rs 38,580.25 Year 3: PV = Rs 65,000 / 1.083
= Rs 51,599.10
4. Adding those up gets:
5. NPV = - Rs 100,000 + Rs 23,148.15+ Rs 38,580.25+ Rs 51,599.10= Rs
13,327.49
