Declining perpetuities and annuities (S2.3) You own an oil pipeline that will generate a $2 million cash return over the coming year. The pipeline's operating costs are negligible, and it is expected to last for a very long time. Unfortunately, the volume of oil shipped is declining, and cash flows are expected to decline by 4% per year. The discount rate is 10%. a. What is the PV of the pipeline's cash flows if its cash flows are assumed to last forever? b. What is the PV of the cash flows if the pipeline is scrapped after 20 years?

You are considering the investment of $111,000 (today) in a lemonade stand. Also, you expect the stand to generate the following future cash flows: • At the end of year 1: $0 • At the end of year 2: $0 • At the end of year 3: $0 • At the end of year 4: $178,000 What is the IRR (Internal Rate of Return) of this project? (Answer to the nearest 0.01%)
28. Your restaurant’s new project, creating a gluten-free menu, is expected to have the following cash flows. The company requires a project to have a payback period less than 2 years.

NEED ALL FOUR PARTS TJIS SINGLE QUESTION. ....DON'T ATTEMPT IF YOU WILL NOT DO ALL PARTS Calculating free cash flows) You are considering new elliptical trainers and you feel you can sell 6 comma 000 of these per year for 5 years (after which time this project is expected to shut down when it is learned that being fit is unhealthy). The elliptical trainers would sell for $1 comma 400 each and have a variable cost of $700 each. The annual fixed costs associated with production would be $1 comma 400 comma 000 . In addition, there would be a $4 comma 000 comma 000 initial expenditure associated with the purchase of new production equipment. It is assumed that this initial expenditure will be depreciated using the bonus depreciation method in year 1. This project will also require a one-time initial investment of $1 comma 200 comma 000 in net working capital associated with inventory, and working-capital investment will be recovered when the project is shut down. Finally,…
13 You are planning to produce a new action figure called "Nia." However, you are very uncertain about the demand for the product. If it is a hit, you will have net cash flows of $86 million per year for three years (starting next year [i.e., at t= 1]). If it fails, you will only have net cash flows of $46 million per year for two years (also starting next year). There is an equal chance that it will be a hit or failure (probability = 50 percent). You will not know whether it is a hit or a failure until the first year's cash flows are in (i.e., at t= 1). You must spend $152 million immediately for equipment and the rights to produce the figure. If you can sell your equipment for $96 million once the first year's cash flows are received, calculate the value of the abandonment option. (The discount rate is 10 percent.) Multiple Choice $0.00 -$5.15 $24.63 $19.48
(Calculating free cash flows) At present, Solartech Skateboards is considering expanding its product line to include gas-powered skateboards; however, it is questionable how well they will be received by skateboarders. Although you feel there is a 60 percent chance you will sell 8,000 of these per year for 10 years (after which time this project is expected to shut down because solar-powered skateboards will become more popular), you also recognize that there is a 20 percent chance that you will only sell 1,000 and also a 20 percent chance you will sell 18,000. The gas skateboards would sell for $110 each and have a variable cost of $35 each. Regardless of how many you sell, the annual fixed costs associated with production would be $120,000. In addition, there would be an initial expenditure of $1,000,000 associated with the purchase of new production equipment which will be depreciated using the bonus depreciation method in year 1. Because of the number of stores that will need…

You will not know whether it is a hit or a failure until the first year's cash flows are in (i.e., at t = 1). You must spend $140 million immediately for equipment and the rights to produce the figure. If you can sell your equipment for $90 million once the first year's cash flows are received, calculate the value of the abandonment option. (The discount rate is 10 percent.)

1. Calculate the net present value of a project which requires an initial investment of OMR 300,000 and it is expected to generate a cash inflow of OMR 60,000 each month for 12 months. Assume that the salvage value of the project is zero. The target rate of return is 12% per annum. Write any formula that you will use first. Is this even or uneven cash flow? What is your opinion about the project? Justify your answer. 2. You as a project manager were asked to develop an Inventory Control Management Information System. Apply the SWOT analysis mind mapping technique.
You can make an investment that will immediately cost $52,000. If you make the investment, your after-tax operating profit will be $13,000 per year for five years. After the five years, the profit will be zero, and the scrap value also will be zero. You will finance the investment with internally generated funds and receive the profit at the end of each year. The net present value equation for this investment is: NPV=$| (Carefully enter your answer as an algebraic expression, using the proper notation in the proper format. Do not use the letter x to denote the multiplication sign.)
