Average Rate of Return—New Product Micro Tek Inc. is considering an investment in new equipment that will be used to manufacture a smartphone. The phone is expected to generate additional annual sales of 4,000 units at $450 per unit. The equipment has a cost of $940,000, residual value of $20,000, and an eight-year life. The equipment can only be used to manufacture the phone. The cost to manufacture the phone follows: Cost per unit: Direct labor $20 Direct materials 205 Factory overhead (including depreciation) 39 Total cost per unit $264 Determine the average rate of return on the equipment. If required, round to the nearest whole percent.

155%

Explanation:

The computation of Average rate of return is shown below:-

Annual operating income = Sales - Manufacturing cost

= (4,000 × $450) - (4,000  × $264)

= $744,000

Average investment = (Initial cost + Residual value) ÷ 2

= ($940,000 + $20,000) ÷ 2

= $480,000

Average rate of return = Average annual operating income ÷ Average investment

= $744,000 ÷ $480,000

= 155%

if you use only 25 for your entertainment and only 200 for the groceries that you really need and take out the 50 per month for the computer then that should be enough

hi : ) i found this so i hope this !

"we first find value of tax in dollars.

the difference between the two prices   is: 23. 54 - 22 = 1.54

therefore the sales tax in dollars is 1.54

the tax % will be   (amount of tax / original cost price ) × 100

(1.54 / 22) × 100  → (0.07) × 100 =   7

so the tax rate is 7%

we can double check the answer.

7 % of 22   → (7/100) × 22 → 0.07 × 22 = 1.54

22 + 1.54 = 23.54"
