Problem 6-26 Project Analysis and InflationShinoda Manufacturing, Incorporated, has been considering the purchase of a newmanufacturing facility for $590,000. The facility is to be fully depreciated on a straight-line basis over seven years. It is expected to have no resale value at that time. Operatingrevenues from the facility are expected to be $435,000, in nominal terms, at the end ofthe first year. The revenues are expected to increase at the inflation rate of 4 percent.Production costs at the end of the first year will be $280,000, in nominal terms, and theyare expected to increase at 5 percent per year. The real discount rate is 7 percent. Thecorporate tax rate is 25 percent. Calculate the NPV of the project. (Do not roundintermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)Answer is complete but not entirely correct.$91,697.77NPV

Problem 6-6 NPV and Bonus Depreciation Esfandairi Enterprises is considering a new 3-year expansion project that requires an initial fixed asset investment of $2.29 million. The fixed asset qualifies for 100 percent bonus depreciation. The project is estimated to generate $1,790,000 in annual sales, with costs of $684,000. The project requires an initial investment in net working capital of $410,000, and the fixed asset will have a market value of $420,000 at the end of the project. a. If the tax rate is 21 percent, what is the project's Year O net cash flow? Year 1? Year 2? Year 3? (A negative answer should be indicated by a minus sign. Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answers in dollars, not millions of dollars, e.g., 1,234,567.) b. If the required return is 12 percent, what is the project's NPV? (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer in dollars, not millions of dollars, rounded to two decimal places, e.g., 1,234,567.89.) a. Year 0 cash…
3 TWO PROJECTS A company wishes to use a five-year time scale over which to appraise the following projects, with no allowance for scrap values. Its required rate of return is 17%. Project X Purchase of patent rights to a new process at an initial cost of $320,000 payable immediately. The new process will enable the company to reduce its labour force, at present incurring a total wages bill of $280,000, by a quarte: and will allow an increased production capacity of 5,000 units per year of another existing product which at present is sold at $12 per unit with direct costs of $6. There is an 80% chance that the extra potential production could all be sold, with a 20% chance of demand only taking up an extra 3,000 units per year. Production would be adjusted to match demand. This product is made with hardly any labour. Project Y Installation of a mini-computer to deal with the accounting functions at an annual rental charge of $50.000, paid in advance At present the company uses an IT…

Problem 7-2 Scenario Analysis We are evaluating a project that costs $520,000, has a life of 6 years, and has no salvage value. Assume that depreciation is straight-line to zero over the life of the project. Sales are projected at 73,000 units per year. Price per unit is $45, variable cost per unit is $30, and fixed costs are $840,000 per year. The tax rate is 21 percent, and we require a return of 15 percent on this project. Suppose the projections given for price, quantity, variable costs, and fixed costs are all accurate to within ±10 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 NPV Worst-case NPV
Brief Exercise 12-9 Swift Oil Company is considering investing in a new oil well. It is expected that the oil well will increase annual revenues by $123,465 and will increase annual expenses by $67,000 including depreciation. The oil well will cost $481,000 and will have a $10,000 salvage value at the end of its 10-year useful life. Calculate the annual rate of return. (Round answer to 0 decimal places, e.g. 13%.)

Problem 7-2 Scenario Analysis We are evaluating a project that costs $1,080,000, has a life of 10 years, and has no salvage value. Assume that depreciation is straight-line to zero over the life of the project. Sales are projected at 52,000 units per year. Price per unit is $50, variable cost per unit is $30, and fixed costs are $730,000 per year. The tax rate is 25 percent, and we require à return of 15 percent on this project. Suppose the projections given for price, quantity, variable costs, and fixed costs are all accurate to within ±10 percent. Calculate the best-case and worst-case NPV figures.

PROBLEM 2 fol Acoustics, Inc. (AA) projects unit sales for a new seven-octave voice emulation implantas follows: Year 1 2 3 4 5 Production of the implants will require $2,350,000 in net working capital to start and additional net working capital investments each year equal to 25 percent of the projected sales increase for the following year. Total fixed costs are $1,490,000 per year, variable production costs are $239 per unit, and the units are priced at $359 each. The equipment needed to begin production has an installed cost of $30,000,000. Because the implants are intended for professional singers, this equipment is considered industrial machinery and thus qualifies as seven-year MACRS (MACRS Table) property. In five years, this equipment can be sold for about 20 percent of its acquisition cost. AAI is in the 40 percent marginal tax bracket and has a required return on all its projects of 16 percent. Unit Sales 115,000 134,000 122,000 105,000 91,000 What are operating cash flows,…

Problem 9 A contractor is considering the following three alternatives: a. Purchase a new microcomputer system for $15,000. The system is expected to last 6 years with salvage value of $1,000. b. Lease a new microcomputer system for $3,000 per year, payable in advance. The system should last 6 years. c. Purchase a used microcomputer system for $8,200. It is expected to last 3 with no salvage value. Use a common-multiple-of-lives approach. If MARR of 8% is used, which alternative should be selected using a discounted present worth analysis? If the MARR is 12%, which alternate should be selected? years
Reclamation of a gravel pit is expected to begin 9 years from today with estimated end of year costs of 1.5 million dollars each year at the end of years 9, 10, 11 and 12. Part A What amount would the company need to invest or escrow today (time zero) to cover the future liabilities of 1.5 million in years 9, 10, 11, & 12? Other opportunities exist to invest available capital elsewhere and earn 10% per year compounded annually. Part B What amount would your company need to invest each year for the next 8 years (Years 1-8) to pay for the future liabilities of 1.5 million in years 9, 10, 11, & 12? Assume the same nominal 10% interest rate.
