By the end of year 2013, B.E. Company would have 35,000,000 units sitting in ending inventory taking up space and costing money to store.

What will be the monthly break-even point in number of passenger cars? 190 -70 = 120 90 * .6 = 54 Break-even for number of cars: (3,150,000 +0)/ (120) = 26250 26250/54 : 486 d. (Refer to original data.) Fuel cost is a significant variable cost to any railway. If crude oil increases by $ 20 per barrel, it is estimated that variable cost per passenger will rise to $ 90.

Net income dropped from $63,125 to $38,197.50 which cuts losses by $24,927.50. Losses were cut by 61%. 2.

FI 515 Course Project a) The net cost of the spectrometer would include the original cost of the equipment, the modification costs and the increase in working capital due to having the equipment. Therefore, the net cost would be the $70,000 base costs, plus the $15,000 in modification costs and the $4,000 in capital, which equals $89,000. b) To find the operating cash flows for the three years, we have to find the cost savings after taxes and add the tax of depreciation. To find the cost savings, we have to take the $25,000 that is expected to be saved and reduce it based on a tax of 40%, or $25,000(1-.4), which equals $15,000. The tax on depreciation requires several steps to calculate.
