Sink and Tap Inc. is looking at a 4-year project for making taps. Initial investment in equipment will be $754,000. Each unit will be sold for $230. Annual fixed costs, not including depreciation, will be $333,000. Variable costs per unit will be $102.40. The applicable discount rate is 12 percent, and the tax rate is 21 percent. Assume straight- line depreciation to zero and no market salvage value. Use goal seek (or any other method) to find the present value break-even point in units per year. Select one:
a. 5340
b. 5930
c. 4848
d. 4680
e. 5200

the present value break-even point in units per yea is 4680 units. the option (d) is correct

Explanation:

Solution

Given that:

The initial cash flow = $754,000

The project life is  = four years

Thus,

Contribution = sales - variable costs

So,

Sales = quantity * the price

Let the Quantity be Y

$230 Y - $102.40 Y

=127.60 Y

Now,

The operating income = Contribution -fixed costs

which is,

127. 60 Y- (Other depreciation or decrease + decrease)

127. 60 Y- ( $333,000 + ($754,000/4))

= 127. 60 Y- ( $333,000 + $188,500)

Thus,

127. 60 Y - $521, 500

Now,

Tax rate at 21% on operating income is =26.796 Y - 109. 515

The profit after tax = operating income - tax

(127. 60 Y - $521, 500) -(26.796 Y - 109. 515)

= 100.804 Y - 411, 985

Additional depreciation = $188, 500

The operating cash inflow per year = 100.804 Y - 411, 985 +  $188, 500

Thus,

The PVAF for 12 years , 4% = 3.037349

PV of operational cash inflow = 306.18 Y - 678, 802.02

However,

For the break even point: the initaila cash flow = The PV of functioning or operational cash inflow

So,

306.18 Y  - 678, 802.02 =$ 754,400

306.18 Y = 1, 432, 802.02

Y = 4680 Units

due to the changes the federal reserve is making the unused reserves will impact the economy by them facing inflation. inflation is definfed as the increase in pricing of a good or service but the decline of the value of money used for purchasing those items. when the economy has a high inflation rate, they are subject to money loss and hurt on the economy.

employees use applications that are uniformed so that they are able to look over them more quickly because the do not want to spend a long time reading through the applications so they get all the infomation that the are looking for on the application they made so the do not have to read about unnessacary infomaton. so to make it simple it them find the person that they want to hirer faster with out wasting time.

i hope this i spelt things wrong i believe but this is why

mark me brainliest.

this website has me so much feel free to keep asking questions
