Although appealing to more refined tastes, art as a collectible has not always performed so profitably. During 2003, Sotheby’s sold the Edgar Degas bronze sculpture Petite Danseuse de Quatorze Ans at auction for a price of $9.63 million. Unfortunately for the previous owner, he had purchased it in 1999 at a price of $12.84 million. What was his annual rate of return on this sculpture?

A customer would lease a car from the manufacturer for a set term, usually two years, and then have the option of keeping the car. If the customer decided to keep the car, the customer would pay a price to the manufacturer, the “residual value,” computed as 60% of the new car price. The manufacturer would then sell the returned cars at auction. In 1999, manufacturers lost an average of $480 on each returned car (the auction price was, on average, $480 less than the residual value).arrow_forwardNOTE: You already replied on this question with the answer as indicated below. Unfortunately, the answer is being marked as incorrect. I’m getting that same answer also, that’s why I asked for help in this problem. I can’t figure out what’s missing in the calculation process. Please take another look. Thanks. Gluon Inc. is considering the purchase of a new high pressure glueball. It can purchase the glueball for $140,000 and sell its old low-pressure glueball, which is fully depreciated, for $24,000. The new equipment has a 10-year useful life and will save $32,000 a year in expenses. The opportunity cost of capital is 8%, and the firm’s tax rate is 40%. What is the equivalent annual savings from the purchase if Gluon uses straight-line depreciation? Assume the new machine will have no salvage value. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.) Equivalent Annual Savings: $3,935.87arrow_forward
- 4. Present value of an income stream Read No Evil (RNE) is a firm specializing in the destruction of sensitive documents. An industrial paper shredder costs $8,000. If bought, it would raise RNE's revenue by an additional $400 per year. The machine is designed to last forever and never require maintenance. If the firm does not purchase the machine, it will put the money into an interest-bearing bank account. At which interest rates would RNE be willing to buy the machine? Check all that apply. 12% 4% 6% 1%arrow_forward(Ignore income taxes in this problem.) Your Company purchased a van to use in orders directly to customers. The auto was purchased for $28,000 and will have a 6-year useful life and a $7,000 salvage value. Delivering fees should increase gross revenues by at least $6,350 per year. Depreciation on the van will be $3,500 per year. In what year will the payback for the van occur? please solve and show work.arrow_forwardIs this an example of a opportunity cost? Why or why not? “To begin, I began selling prints of my pictures in the year 2019. It's now closed. USPS and UPS were the options I had during this period to ship out orders. Because UPS was more expensive at the moment, I chose to mail my prints via USPS rather than UPS. My orders were delivered on time and without damage by the United States Postal Service. The opportunity cost is the cost of UPS shipping.”arrow_forward
