The following data pertain to Sunlight Corp., whose management is planning to purchase an automated tanning equipment. Economic life of equipment – 8 years. Disposal value after 8 years – nil. Estimated net annual cash inflows for each of the 8 years – P81,000. Time-adjusted internal rate of return – 14% Cost of capital of Sunlight Corp – 16% The table of present values of P1 received annually for 8 years has these factors: at 14% = 4.639, at 16% = 4.344 Depreciation is approximately P46,970 annually. Find the required increase in annual cash inflows in order to have the time-adjusted rate of return approximately equal the cost of capital.

Information for two alternative projects involving machinery investments follows. Project 1 requires an initial investment of $130,900. Project 2 requires an initial investment of $97,200. Assume the company requires a 10% rate of return on its investments. (PV of $1, FV of $1, PVA of $1, and FVA of $1) (Use appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided.)

Use 7 years for Project 1 and 5 years for Project 2. (Negative net present values should be indicated with a minus sign. Round your present value factor to 4 decimals. Round your answers to the nearest whole dollar.) Net Cash Flows X Answer is complete but not entirely correct. Present Value of Annuity at 10% 26,460 X Project 1 $ 105,300 X 70,200…
Cardinal Company is considering a project that would require a $2,782,000 investment in equipment with a useful life of five years. At the end of five years, the project would terminate and the equipment would be sold for its salvage value of $200,000. The company’s discount rate is 18%. The project would provide net operating income each year as follows: Sales $ 2,873,000 Variable expenses 1,019,000 Contribution margin 1,854,000 Fixed expenses: Advertising, salaries, and other fixed out-of-pocket costs $ 754,000 Depreciation 516,400 Total fixed expenses 1,270,400 Net operating income $ 583,600 Required:If the equipment’s salvage value was $400,000 instead of $200,000, what would be the project’s simple rate of return? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
The expected annual net income is $200,000; the average investment is $800,000; and depreciation expense is $50,000. The annual rate of return is
