Dog Up! Franks is looking at a new sausage system with an installed cost of $385,000 that will last for five years. This cost will be depreciated using 100 percent bonus depreciation in the first year. At the end of the project, the sausage system can be scrapped for $60,000. The sausage system will save the firm $135,000 per year in pretax operating costs, and the system requires an initial investment in net working capital of $35,000. If the tax rate is 21 percent and the discount rate is 10 percent, what is the NPV of this project? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.) NPV

Cori's Meats is looking at a new sausage system with an installed cost of $505,000. This cost will be depreciated straight-line to zero over the project's five-year life, at the end of which the sausage system can be scrapped for $75,000. The sausage system will save the firm $185,000 per year in pretax operating costs, and the system requires an initial investment in net working capital of $34,000. If the tax rate is 25 percent and the discount rate is 8 percent, what is the NPV of this project? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.) NPV $ 553,988.52
Caroline’s Chill Chronometers (3C) is considering buying a machine for $600 million. The machine has a useful life of 20 years. Sales are projected to be $120 million per year, with operating expenses of $35 million per year. An initial NWC investment of $10 million would be needed. NWC, however, would decrease by $300,000 per year over the 15 year life of the project due to improved inventory efficiency. The machine can be sold for $175 million at the end of the project. The tax rate is 20% and the required rate of return is 7%. Find the NPV using straight-line depreciation.
Managers of Central Embroidery have decided to purchase a new monogram machine and are considering two alternative machines. The first machine costs $100,000 and is expected to last five years. The second machine costs $160,000 and is expected to last eight years. Assume that the opportunity cost of capital is 8 percent. Which machine should Central Embroidery purchase?
Kolby’s Korndogs is looking at a new sausage system with an installed cost of $680,000. The asset qualifies for 100 percent bonus depreciation and can be scrapped for $90,000 at the end of the project’s 5-year life. The sausage system will save the firm $193,000 per year in pretax operating costs, and the system requires an initial investment in net working capital of $45,000. If the tax rate is 25 percent and the discount rate is 9 percent, what is the NPV of this project? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
Dog Up! Franks is looking at a new sausage system with an initial cost of $435,000 that will last for five years. The fixed asset will qualify for 100 percent bonus depreciation in the first year, at the end of which the sausage system can be scrapped for $49,000. The sausage system will save the firm $137,000 per year in pretax operating costs, and the system requires an initial investment in net working capital of $24,000. If the tax rate is 21 percent and the discount rate is 9 percent, what is the NPV of this project? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
DDR Enterprises is analyzing an expansion project. The project's installed cost is $80,000. It is eligible for 100% bonus depreciation. The project has a $12,000 salvage value at the end of its five year expected life. The project will requie an additional $8,000 investment in net working capital. The tax rate is 25%. What is the project's initial investment? If you could show the steps in calcualtion too that would be great!
Eggz, Incorporated, is considering the purchase of new equipment that will allow the company to collect loose hen feathers for sale. The equipment will cost $490,000 and will be eligible for 100 percent bonus depreciation. The equipment can be sold for $84,000 at the end of the project in 5 years. Sales would be $327,000 per year, with annual fixed costs of $60,000 and variable costs equal to 35 percent of sales. The project would require an investment of $51,000 in NWC that would be returned at the end of the project. The tax rate is 23 percent and the required return is 8 percent. Calculate the NPV of this project. Note: Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16. NPV 348437.32
You are considering a proposal to produce and market a new sluffing machine. The most likely outcomes for the project are as follows: Expected sales: 125,000 units per year Unit price: $240 Variable cost: $144 Fixed cost: $5,430,000 The project will last for 10 years and requires an initial Investment of $21.78 million, which will be depreciated straight-line over the project life to a final value of zero. The firm's tax rate is 30%, and the required rate of return is 12% However, you recognize that some of these estimates are subject to error. In one scenario a sharp rise in the dollar could cause sales to fall 30% below expectations for the life of the project and, if that happens, the unit price would probably be only $230. The good news is that fixed costs could be as low as $3,620,000, and variable costs would decline in proportion to sales. a. What is project NPV If all variables are as expected?

FastTrack Bikes, Inc. is thinking of developing a new composite road bike. Development will take six years and the cost is $200,000 per year. Once in production, the bike is expected to make $300,000 per year for 10 years. Assume the cost of capital is 10%. a. Calculate the NPV of this investment opportunity, assuming all cash flows occur at the end of each year. Should the company make the investment? b. By how much must the cost of capital estimate deviate to change the decision? (Hint: Use Excel to calculate the IRR.) c. What is the NPV of the investment if the cost of capital is 14%? Note: Assume that all cash flows occur at the end of the appropriate year and that the inflows do not start until year 7.
