A proposed project has estimated sale units of 2,500, give or take 2 percent. The expected variable cost per unit is $12.79 and the expected fixed costs are $17,500. Cost estimates are considered accurate within a plus or minus 3 percent range. The depreciation expense is $2,850. The sale price is estimated at $15.40 a unit, give or take 3 percent. The company bases its sensitivity analysis on the expected case scenario. If a sensitivity analysis is conducted using a variable cost estimate of $13, what will be the total annual variable costs?

1. What is sensitivity analysis? 2. Perform a sensitvity analysis on the unit sales, salvage value, and WACC for a project. Assume that each of these variables deviates from its base-case, or expected value by plus or minus 10%, 20%, and 30%.The base case value for unit sales is 150,000. Calculate NPV for each case (18 NPV in total), then draw a graph with three lines (one for unit sales, one for salvage value, and one for WACC). At the end, perform a sensitivity analysis for the project (what you have seen, what conclusions you can make?). 3. What is the primary weakness of sensitvity analysis? What are its primary advantages?

Stinnett Transmissions, Incorporated, has the following estimates for its new gear assembly project: Price = $ 1,250 per unit; variable cost = $470 per unit; fixed costs $4.98 million; quantity = 88,000 units. Suppose the company believes all of its estimates are accurate only to within \pm 21 percent. What values should the company use for the four variables given here when it performs its best-case and worst-case scenario analysis? Note: Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answers in dollars, not millions of dollars, rounded to the nearest whole number, e.g., 1,234, 567.
