Calculations: 1. You are valuing a 10-acre vacant lot with a septic system and a well on site. The size adjustment factor for 10 acres is 2.23. You have found two recent sales to use as comparables. -Sale 1 is 3.5 acres in size and has a septic system and a well on site. It sold for $200,000. The corresponding size adjustment factor for 3.5 acres is 1.57. -Sale 2 is 7 acres in size and sold for $225,000. However, it does not have a septic system or a well, which will cost $50,000 total to install. The corresponding size adjustment factor for 7 acres is 1.93. CALCULATE THE RANGE OF THE VALUE OF THE 10-ACRE VACANT LOT ADJUSTED FOR SIZE, ROUNDED TO THE NEAREST $1,000. SHOW YOUR WORK

Problem 1. During your first month as an employee at Greenfield Industries (a large drill- bit manufacturer), you are asked to evaluate alternatives for producing a newly designed drill bit on a turning machine. Your boss' memorandum to you has practically no information about what the alternatives are and what criteria should be used. The same task was posed to a previous employee who could not finish the analysis, but she has given you the following information: An old turning machine valued at $350,000 exists (in the warehouse) that can be modified for the new drill bit. The in-house technicians have given an estimate of $40,000 to modify this machine, and they assure you that they will have the machine ready before the projected start date (although they have never done any modifications of this type). It is hoped that the old turning machine will be able to meet production requirements at full capacity. An outside company, McDonald Inc., made the machine seven years ago and can…

1. A builder has located a piece of property that she would like to buy and eventually build on. The land is currently zoned for four homes per acre, but she is planning to request new zoning. What she builds depends on approval of zoning requests and your analysis of this problem to advise her. With her input and your help, the decision process has been reduced to the following costs, alternatives, and probabilities: Cost of land: $2 million. Probability of rezoning: 0.60. If the land is rezoned, there will be additional costs for new roads, lighting, and so on of $1 million. If the land is rezoned, the contractor must decide whether to build a shopping center or 1,500 apartments that the tentative plan shows would be possible. If she builds a shopping center, there is a 70 percent chance that she can sell the shopping center to a large department store chain for $4 million over her construction cost, which excludes the land; and there is a 30 percent chance that she can sell it to an…

Decision Under Uncertainty The digital television service company TV-más is facing a significant problem of customer loss in recent months, in particular, customers of the Home plan, which consists of an annual subscription whose value is $200 and that allows you to watch more than 40 high definition television channels. The company has prepared a list of clients who have decided that once the subscription has ended, they will not contract the service again, since, among several reasons , they maintain that the company does not treat its clients well. Considering customer opinions, the company has thought of a plan so that customers who have decided not to renew can reverse their decision and subscribe to the service for one more year. The plan consists of giving a gift to customers who have decided not to renew in order to show concern for them. The gift consists of a set of kitchen pots, with the company logo, which costs the company $50. According to information from a pilot plan…
