1. Jamuna Group is evaluating the proposal of a new RMG factory called Jamuna Fabrics. Jamuna Group is renting a premise of 50,000 Square feet in Savar and Jamuna Fabrics is planning to use 10,000 Square feet from this facility. The rest of the premise is currently being used by another RMG factory of Jamuna Group called Jamuna Exclusive Fabrics. The Jamuna Exclusive Fabrics has already started its production. For Jamuna Fabrics, the total capital cost is USD 40,000 and is depreciated using the straight-line method over five years to a zero-salvage value. The monthly salary expense will be USD 2500, whereas annual utility and other expense will be USD 2,000. The annual total rent of 50,000 Square feet premise is USD 25,000. Jamuna Fabrics will need to annually pay USD 6000 as staff’s festival bonus. The cash flow from asset for Jamuna Fabrics is USD 28000 in the first year, followed by USD 12000 in the second year.

Assume that Walmart Inc. has decided to surface and maintain for 10 years a vacant lot next to one of its stores to serve as a parking lot for customers. Management is considering the following bids involving two different qualities of surfacing for a parking area of 11,300 square yards. Bid A: A surface that costs $5.25 per square yard to install. This surface will have to be replaced at the end of 5 years. The annual maintenance cost on this surface is estimated at 25 cents per square yard for each year except the last year of its service. The replacement surface will be similar to the initial surface. Bid B: A surface that costs $10.75 per square yard to install. This surface has a probable useful life of 10 years and will require annual maintenance in each year except the last year, at an estimated cost of 12 cents per square yard. Click here to view factor tables. Compute present value of the bids. You may assume that the cost of capital is 12%, that the annual maintenance…

The investment committee of Granny’s Restaurants Inc. is evaluating two restaurant sites. The sites have different useful lives, but each requires an investment of $1,200,000. The estimated net cash flows from each site are as follows: Net Cash Flows Year Helena Butte 1 $375,000 $500,000 2 $375,000 $500,000 3 $375,000 $500,000 4 $375,000 $500,000 5 $375,000 6 $375,000 The committee has selected a rate of 20% for purposes of net present value analysis. It also estimates that the residual value at the end of each restaurant’s useful life is $0, but at the end of the fourth year, Helena’s residual value would be $500,000. Instructions: Using formulas/functions wherever available, complete the following on the Input tab… For each site, compute the net present value,…
Parker & Stone, Inc., is looking at setting up a new manufacturing plant in South Park to produce garden tools. The company bought some land 12 years ago for $3,776,276 in anticipation of using it as a warehouse and distribution site, but the company has since decided to rent these facilities from a competitor instead. If the land were sold today, the company would net $3,278,390. An engineer was hired to study the land at a cost of $748,629, and her conclusion was that the land can support the new manufacturing facility. The company wants to build its new manufacturing plant on this land; the plant will cost $5,555,713 million to build, and the site requires $1,384,583 worth of grading before it is suitable for construction. What is the proper cash flow amount to use as the initial investment in fixed assets when evaluating this project?
