SAP Inc. received a $1.5 million grant under its Small Business Innovation program. SAP invested the grant money and developed a system to remove metal contaminants from storm water in shipyards. The firm estimates that each shipyard spends $500,000 a year on storm water clean-up efforts. If SAP is able to sign up and retain four shipyards in the first year onwards, what is the present value (PV) of the project (net of investment) if the cost of capital for SAP is 14% per year? Assume a cost of operations and other costs for SAP equal 50% of revenue. $5.64 million $4.80 million $4.51 million $5.93 million
The engineer of a medium scale industry was instructed to prepare at least two plans which is to be considered by management for the improvement of their operations. Plan "A" calls for an initial investment of P200,000 now with a prospective salvage value of 20% of the first cost 20 years hence. The operation and maintenance disbursement are estimated to be P15,000 a year and taxes will be 2% of first cost. Plan "B" calls for an immediate investment of P140,000 and a second investment of 160,000 eight years later. the operation and maintenance disbursements will be P9,000 a year for initial installation and P8,000 a year for the second installation. At the end of 20 years the salvage value shall be 20% of the investments. Taxes will be 2% of the first cost. If money is worth 12%, which plan would you recommend? Solve using present worth cost method and equivalent uniform annual cost method.

The company DstriBut.inc decides to take a technological shift by replacing its old distribution center with a new one that is more oriented towards technology and less dependent on manpower. The entire installation is estimated at $6,000,000 amortized at the rate of 30% decreasing. An immediate expense of $30,000 (taxable and non-depreciable) is planned to ensure the training of the personnel who will operate on the new installations. This investment creates a working capital requirement of $400,000, fully recoverable. The company estimates to increase its operating cash flow by $1,500,000 before tax. On the other hand, the company must assume an expense for the maintenance and replacement of consumable components of new installations in the amount of $50,000 every 2 years. This investment will have a residual value of $2,500,000 at the end of the investment horizon, which is set at 5 years by senior management. The tax rate is 40% and the rate of return required by senior management…
A firm is planning to purchase a new machine costing ₱2,600,000 with freight and installation costs amounting to 125,000. The old unit to be traded-in will be given a trade-in allowance of ₱240,000. Other assets that are to be retired as a result of the acquisition of the new machine can be salvaged and sold for ₱52,000. The loss on the retirement of these assets is ₱50,000 will reduce taxes by ₱20,000 which is based on a tax rate of 40%. If the new machine is not purchased, extensive repairs on the old machine will have to be made at an estimated cost of ₱350,000. This cost can be avoided by purchasing the new machine. Additional gross working capital of ₱250,000 will be needed to support operations planned with the new machine. The net cost of investment would be? ₱2,725,000 ₱2,313,000 ₱2,063,000 ₱2,485,000 ₱2,973,000 ₱2,413,000

You are a manager at Percolated Fiber, which is considering expanding its operations. Your boss said to you "We already owe these consultants $1.8 million for their first report, and all they gave us is Net Income. Before we spend another $1.4 million on further market research plus $21 million on new equipment needed for this project, look the first report over and give me your opinion." Here are the report's estimates (in millions of dollars; note that the question is continued below, so you need to scroll down to see it all): 1 Sales revenue 64.0 64.0 64.0 - Cost of goods sold Gross profit -Selling, gen. & admin. exp. -Depreciation Net operating income - Income tax (30%) Net Income 41.0 41.0 41.0 23.0 23.0 23.0 8.8 8.8 8.8 7.0 7.0 7.0 7.2 7.2 7.2 2.2 2.2 2.2 5.0 5.0 5.0
Raycroft operates a nuclear power station. The power station is due to be decommissioned on 31 December 20X8 but will be fully operational up to that date. It has been estimated that the cost of decommissioning the power station and cleaning up any environmental damage, as required by legislation, will be $60 million. Raycroft recognised a provision for the present value of this expenditure at 31 December 20X0. A suitable discount rate for evaluating costs of this nature is 12%, equivalent to a present value factor after eight years of 0.404. The decommissioning cost will be depreciated over eight years. What is the total charge to profit or loss in respect of this provision for the year ended 31 December 20X1 and 20X2?
A proposed project requires an investment of $215,000 and will require an additional $25,000 for upgrades in year six. The income from the project is expected to be $64,000 in years one through five and $52,000 in years seven and eight. In year six, revenue equaled expenses (exclusive of the $25,000 spent for upgrades). There is no salvage value. If the external reinvestment rate (ε) of 6% is available, what is the rate of return for this project using the ERR method?
