Question

Kelly’s Corner Bakery purchased a lot in Oil City 6 years ago at a cost of $302,000. Today, that lot has a book value of zero and market value of $340,000. At the time of the purchase, the company spent $15,000 to level the lot and another $20,000 to install storm drains. The company now wants to build a new facility on that site. The building cost is estimated at $1.51 million, and will be depreciated using the straight-line method to a $400,000 book value over the 6-year life of the project. The company is evaluates this new facility will increase annual sales by $1.2 million and annual cash costs by $0.5 million. Based on past information, the company believes that it can sell the facility for $800,000 when they are done with it in 6 years. The applicable tax rate is 32 percent.

What is the net present value of the project if the required rate of return is 10 percent?
