As the CEO of a western wear manufacturing company called Over Y'alls. Your marketing department has come up with two potential work boots which you believe will only have a large enough demand to maintain market for five years (before the style gets old). You believe that the adoption of one of those two products will not affect the viability of the other product. You estimate that Style 1 will cost $45,545 up front to set up, whereas Style 2 will cost $53,416 up front. The expected cash flows from those two boot designs over the life of the boots can be found in the table below. Both projects have similar risks to current projects at Over Y'Alls, therefore the appropriate discount rate for both projects should be our current WACC of 7.51%. Calculate the net present value of both projects, and enter in the box below how much the value of the firm is expected to increase based on this capital budget (please enter the amount to the nearest penny).

Calculate the Margin Of Safety in units and in sales dollars? The President of Benoit is under pressure from shareholders to increase operating income by 50% in 2020. Management expects per unit data and total fixed costs to remain the same in 2020. Compute the number of units that would have to be sold in 2020 to reach the shareholders desired profit level. Is this a realistic goal? Assume that as a result of reorganizing the production process, the management of Benoit Manufacturing was able to reduce direct material cost per unit by $5 due to a change in the supplier of the raw material used in the production process. Variable manufacturing overhead per unit would also decrease by $3. The business is also considering paying additional annual commission of $36,400 to its sales team as part of the sales expansion effort, which should result in an increase in sales revenue. The head of the marketing department has indicated that the effort of the sales team should result in a…
To increase Sales and Sales Growth, the top Marketing Manager suggested to price products slightly lower than the main competitor and at the same time increase product quality (competitor is not expected to react or make changes). This strategy would require an initial one time investment today of $1 million in advertising (and for some machines) and the Net Profit Margin (and Cash Flows) will be zero for years 1, 2, 3. However, sales are expected to grow 20% in years 1,2,3 (then sales will stabilize and sales growth will be 1% in year 4 and over). Also, in year 4 Net Profit Margin will return to 5% (due to economies of scale). (Some numbers have been pre-filled in the tables below).

A company is trying to predict the long-run market share of a new men's deodorant. Based on initial marketing studies, they believe that 30% of new purchasers in this market will ultimately try this brand, and of these, about 55% will purchase it in the future. Preliminary data also suggest that the brand will attract heavier-than-average buyers, such as those who exercise frequently and participate in sports, and that they will purchase about 15% more than the average buyer. Complete parts a and b. a. Calculate the long-run market share that the company can anticipate under these assumptions. The long-run market share is (Type an integer or a decimal rounded to three decimal places as needed.) b. Let T = proportion of customers trying the brand, R = proportion of customers who repurchase, and B = buyer index (which is 1.0 for the average buyer). Develop a general model for predicting long-run market share, L. (Simplify your answer.)
The Knot manufactures men’s neckwear at its Spartanburg plant. The Knot is considering implementing a JIT production system. The following are the estimated costs and benefits of JIT production: a. Annual additional tooling costs $250,000 annually. b. Average inventory would decline by 80% from the current level of $1,000,000. c. Insurance, space, materials-handling, and setup costs, which currently total $400,000 annually, would decline by 20%. d. The emphasis on quality inherent in JIT production would reduce rework costs by 25%. The Knot currently incurs $160,000 in annual rework costs. e. Improved product quality under JIT production would enable The Knot to raise the price of its product by $2 per unit. The Knot sells 100,000 units each year. The Knot’s required rate of return on inventory investment is 15% per year. Q. What nonfinancial and qualitative factors should The Knot consider when making the decision to adopt JIT production?

A manager is trying to decide whether to buy one machine or two. If only one is purchased and demand proves to be excessive, the second machine can be purchased later. Some sales will be lost, however, because the lead time for producing this type of machine is six months. In addition, the cost per machine will be lower if both are purchased at the same time. The probability of low demand is estimated to be 0.20. The after-tax net present value of the benefits from purchasing the two machines together is $80,000 if demand is low and $180,000 if demand is high. If one machine is purchased and demand is low, the net present value is $110,000. If demand is high, the manager has three options. Doing nothing has a net present value of $110,000; subcontracting, $160,000; and buying the second machine, $130,000. a. Choose the correct decision tree for this problem. Note that each payoff is given in thousands of dollars.
