Ski Boards, Inc., wants to enter the market quickly with a new finish on its ski boards. It has three choices: (a) refurbish the old equipment at a cost of $250, (b) make major modifications at the cost of $1,000, or (c) purchase new equipment at a net cost of $1,750. If the firm chooses to refurbish the equipment, materials and labor will be $1.20 per board. If it chooses to make modifications, materials and labor will be $0.75 per board. If it buys new equipment, variable costs are estimated to be $0.40 per board. a) On the graph to the right, use the line drawing tool to draw the total cost curve for each option. Label the curves TC2, TC b, and TCC, respectively. Note: Carefully follow the instructions above and only draw the required objects.

A company must decide between scrapping or reworking units that do not pass inspection. The company has 22000 defective units that cost $6 per unit to manufacture. The units can be sold as is for $2.00 each or they can be reworked for $4.50 each and then sold for the full price of $8.50 each. If the units are sold as is the company will be able to build 22000 replacement units at a cost of $6 each and sell them at the full price of $8.50. (1) What is the incremental income from selling the units as scrap? (2) what is the incremental income from reworking and selling the units?(3) should the company sell the units as scrap or rework them?
Assume that HASF furniture Inc., as described, currently purchases the chair cushions for its lawn set from an outside vendor for $30 per set. Modern Furniture’s chief operations officer wants an analysis of the comparative costs of manufacturing these cushions to determine whether bringing the manufacturing in-house would save the firm money. Additional information shows that if Modern furniture’s were to manufacture the cushions, the materials cost would be $16 and the labor cost would be $10 per set and that it would have to purchase cutting and sewing equipment, which would add $25,000 to annual fixed costs.

A pork processing facility is considering the installation of either a storage facility or a holding pond. A biosystems engineer has been hired to evaluate the economic trade-offs for the two alternatives. The engineer estimates the cost of the storage facility to be $213,000, with annual costs for maintenance to be $3,200 per year. She estimates the cost of the pond to be $90,000, plus $45,000 for pumps and piping, and annual operating and maintenance costs for the holding pond are estimated to be $8,500. The engineer estimates the life of the storage facility and the pond to be around 20 years but is concerned about the accuracy of this estimate. She decides to do a sensitivity analysis. Solve, a. Develop the equation that she would use to determine how sensitive the economic decision is to changes in life. Use a MARR of 15%. b. Determine which alternative is preferred for lives ranging from 15 to 25 years.
