1. Aero Motorcycles is considering opening a new manufacturing facility in Fort Worth to meet the demand for a new line of solar-charged motorcycles (who wants to ride on a cloudy day anyway?)

The land has a current market value of $2,600,000. • The project has an initial cost of $20,000,000 (excluding land, hint: the land is not subject to depreciation). • If the project is undertaken, at t = 0 the company will need to increase its inventories by $3,500,000, accounts receivable by $1,500,000, and its accounts payable by $2,000,000. This net operating working capital will be recovered at the end of the project’s life (t = 10). • If the project is undertaken, the company will realize an additional $8,000,000 in sales over each of the next ten years. (i.e. sales in each year are $8,000,000) • The company’s operating cost (not including depreciation) will equal 50% of sales. • The company’s tax rate is 35 percent. • Use a 10-year straight-line depreciation schedule. • At t = 10, the project is expected to cease being economically viable and the factory (including land) will be sold for $4,500,000 (assume land has a book value equal to the original purchase price). • The project’s WACC = 10 percent • Assume the firm is profitable and able to use any tax credits (i.e. negative taxes).
