Blossom Ranch Inc. has been manufacturing its own finials for its curtain rods. The company is currently operating at 100% of capacity, and variable manufacturing overhead is charged to production at the rate of 68% of direct labor cost. The direct materials and direct labor cost per unit to make a pair of finials are $4 and $5, respectively. Normal production is 25,300 curtain rods per year.

The owner of a small printing company is considering the purchase of additional printing equipment to expand her business. If the owner expands the business and sales are high, projected profits (minus the cost of the equipment) should be $90,000; if sales are low, projected profits should be $40,000. If the equipment is not purchased, projected profits should be $70,000 if sales are high and $50,000 if sales are low. Are there options other than the purchase of additional equipment that should be considered in making the decision to expand the business? If the owner is optimistic about the company's future sales, should the company expand by purchasing the equipment? Is the owner's optimism or pessimism about sales the only factor that may impact the company's profits? The equipment to be purchased is known in the industry to have a useful life of five years. How might this impact the printing company?

A lodging property wishes to change its lighting system with the most efficient ones. The old system will be sold in the market and the new system will cost $500,000. The new investment does not require an additional outlay but it needs incremental working capital of $48,000. The old lighting system can be sold for $200,000 in the market which is an equivalent of its books value. Moreover, the new investment will not have incremental sales revenue but it will have incremental operating costs of $22,000, and incremental depreciation of $11,000 for the first year. There is no expected change in net working capital after the project is undertaken and no estimated salvage value for the first year. For the second year, suppose that there is 12.00% increase in operating costs and depreciation. At the end of the second year, the estimated salvage value is $10,000 on the new lighting system. What are the net investment and net cash flow for the first and second year for this investment (assume…
