and has $350,000 of
purchase price of $545,000. The old machine could be sold for $231,000. The annual
variable production costs associated with the old machine are estimated to be $61,000
per year for eight years. The annual variable production costs for the new machine are
estimated to be $19,000 per year for eight years.

Step by step
Solved in 3 steps
- We are evaluating a project that costs $630,700, has a seven-year life, and has no salvage value. Assume that depreciation is straight-line to zero over the life of the project. Sales are projected at 90,000 units per year. Price per unit is $46, variable cost per unit is $33, and fixed costs are $720,000 per year. The tax rate is 25 percent, and we require a return of 10 percent on this project. Suppose the projections given for price, quantity, variable costs, and fixed costs are all accurate to within ±15 percent. Calculate the best-case and worst-case NPV figures. (A negative answer should be indicated by a minus sign. Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answers to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.) Best-case Worst-caseMedavoy Company is considering a new project that complements its existing business. The machine required for the project costs $4.5 million. The marketing department predicts that sales related to the project will be $2.67 million per year for the next four years, after which the market will cease to exist. The machine will be depreciated to zero over its 4-year economic life using the straight-line method. Cost of goods sold and operating expenses related to the project are predicted to be 30 percent of sales. The company also needs to add net working capital of $190,000 immediately. The additional net working capital will be recovered in full at the end of the project’s life. The corporate tax rate is 23 percent and the required return for the project is 13 percent. What is the value of the NPV for this project? (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer in dollars, not millions of dollars, rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 1,234,567.89.)We are evaluating a project that costs $2,190,000, has a 8-year life, and has no salvage value.

Best-case Worst-case NPVBridgeport Industries is considering the purchase of new equipment costing $1,280,000 to replace existing equipment that will be sold for $194,000. The new equipment is expected to have a $220,000 salvage value at the end of its 5-year life. During the period of its use, the equipment will allow the company to produce and sell an additional 32,800 units annually at a sales price of $29 per unit. Those units will have a variable cost of $15 per unit. The company will also incur an additional $86,000 in annual fixed costs. Identify the amount and timing of all cash flows related to the acquisition of the new equipment. (Enter negative amounts using a negative sign preceding the number e.g. -45 or parentheses e.g. (45).)
