Palmer Corp. is considering the purchase of a new piece of equipment. The cost savings from the equipment would result in an annual increase in net income after tax of $105,000. The equipment will have an initial cost of $473,000 and have a 10 year life. If the salvage value of the equipment is estimated to be $84,000, what is the payback period?A. 10.00 yearsB. 5.25 yearsC. 4.50 yearsD. 3.29 years

D. 3.29 years

Explanation:

Payback period = Initial cost / (An annual increase in net income after tax + Depreciation per year )

Payback period = $473,000 / [$105,000 + ($473,000-$84,000)/10]

Payback period = $473,000 / [$105,000+$38,900

Payback period = $473,000 / $143,900

Payback period = 3.28700

Payback period = 3.29 years

being born in poverty would limit the people's chances, opportunities and benefits.

this happen because of several things, such as:

- poor people tend to gain less access to good education and nutrition. this mean that their chance to obtain high paying jobs would also be limited.

- poor people tend to socialize with other poor people while the rich tend to socialize with other rich people. this means that simply throguh their social circle, rich people would have more business opportunities compared to the poor people.

- rich people tend to have more capital in their disposal. this would benefit them in business since it is far easier for them to fund their business operation compared to poor people.
