TEME is a manufacturer of toy construction equipment. If it pays out all of its earnings as dividends, it will have earnings of 0.3 million per quarter in perpetuity. Suppose that the discount rate, expressed as an effective annual rate (EAR), is 16%. TEME pays dividends quarterly. Suppose that TEME is considering a one-time expansion into toy xylophones. It is estimated that this will cost 1M. Assume that this cost will be incurred at the end of the year, one year from now. As a result of expansion, earnings in subsequent quarters (i.e. starting in 1 year and 1 quarter from now) would be 0.05 million higher than without the expansion. Calculate the value of TEME if it undertakes the investment.

Mason, Inc., is considering the purchase of a patent that has a cost of $85000 and an estimated revenue producing lite of 4 years. Mason has a required rate of return that is 12% and a cost of capital of 11%. The patent is expected to generate the following amounts of annual income and cash flows: A. What is the NPV of the investment? B. What happens if the required rate of return increases?
Consider the rental rate of capital for an appliance rental company such as Rent-A-Center. Suppose Rent-A-Center buys televisions at the market price (P) of $3,500 each and rents them out to customers. The company faces an interest rate (r) of 15% per year, and televisions depreciate at 15% per year. Fill in the following table with the interest cost per year and the loss due to wear and tear for each television per year. Borrowing cost per year Depreciation cost G Cost (Dollars per television) Assume that firms renting televisions earn zero profit. Using the information in the previous table, the rental rate of capital, in this case, is per year per television. s to Suppose the depreciation rate decreases due to improvements in the materials used to make televisions. This should cause the equilibrium rental rate Show Transcribed Text The last question option is either "Increase" or "Decrease".

The net present value of an investment is the present value of the expected cash flow minus the initial investment. The company's managers hf. require a 9% return (required rate of return). The managers are considering buying a device that costs ISK 210,000. The device will create a cash flow of ISK 84,000. during the next three years, at the end of each year. What is the net present value of this investment (net present value of investment)? Group of answer choices a. ISK 21,261 b. ISK 212,604 c. ISK 2,629 d. 42,000 ISK
Limitless Ltd. is planning to buy a new warehouse to store its production output. Theinvestment would require £500,000 to be paid upfront.

If a small company is purchased now for $55,000 it will lose $9,500 each year for the first four years. An additional investment of $30,000 at the end of the fourth year will result in a yearly profit of P30,000 from the fifth through the tenth year. Then on the tenth year the company can be sold for $75,000. If the rate of return is 20%, will you buy the company? Use PWM.
Consider a firm with a contract to sell an asset for $151,000 four years from now. The asset costs $96,000 to produce today. a.

Al_Tech plc is considering investing in a new company, New_tech plc. It has estimated that the new tech company will cost £440,000. Cash flows from increased sales will be £160,000 in the first year. These cash flows will increase by 5% every year. Al_Tech plc estimates that New_tech plc will lose all its technological advantages in five years from now and will lose all its value. Assume that the initial cost is paid now, and all the revenues are received at the end of each year. The company requires a 12% p.a. return for such an investment. a) Calculate the NPV of the investment project. b) Calculate the profitability index and the discounted payback period. c) Should Al_Tech plc consider investing in New_tech plc? What can you say about the internal rate of return to that project? Explain. d) Explain why it is theoretically correct to assume that accepting a project with a positive NPV should increase the value of a company by the NPV of the project.
