Kenny, Inc., is looking at setting up a new manufacturing plant in South Park. The company bought some land six years ago for $5.3 million in anticipation of using it as a warehouse and distribution site, but the company has since decided to rent facilities elsewhere. The land would net $7.7 million if it were sold today. The company now wants to build its new manufacturing plant on this land; the plant will cost $29.3 million to build, and the site requires $1.41 million 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?

- Suppose you have been hired as a financial consultant to Defense Electronics, Incorporated (DEI), a large, publicly traded firm that is the market share leader in radar detection systems (RDSs). The company is looking at setting up a manufacturing plant overseas to produce a new line of RDSs. This will be a five-year project. The company bought some land three years ago for $4.6 million in anticipation of using it as a toxic dump site for waste chemicals, but it built a piping system to safely discard the chemicals instead. The land was appraised last week for $7.7 million on an aftertax basis. In five years, the aftertax value of the land will be $8.1 million, but the company expects to keep the land for a future project. The company wants to build its new manufacturing plant on this land; the plant and equipment will cost $29.8 million to build. The following market data on DEI’s securities are current: Debt: 185,000 bonds with a coupon rate of 7.7 percent outstanding, 25…The Fleming Company, a food distributor, is considering replacing a filling line at its Oklahoma City warehouse. The existing line was purchased several years ago for $3,600,000. The line’s book value is $445,000, and Fleming's management feels it could be sold at this time for $350,000. A new, increased capacity line can be purchased for $2,575,000 and will require and increase in NWC of $55,000. Delivery and installation of the new line are expected to cost $50,000 and 215,000 respectively. Assuming Fleming’s marginal tax rate is 35%, calculate the net investment for the new line.Parker & Stone, Incorporated, is looking at setting up a new manufacturing plant in South Park to produce garden tools.

- Parker & Stone, Incorporated, is looking at setting up a new manufacturing plant in South Park to produce garden tools. The company bought some land 4 years ago for $5 million 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 $9.4 million.

What is the proper cash flow amount to use as the initial investment in fixed assets when evaluating this project?Boardman Gases and Chemicals is a supplier of highly purified gases to semiconductor manufacturers. A large chip producer has asked Boardman to build a new gas production facility close to an existing semiconductor plant. Once the new gas plant is in place, Boardman will be the exclusive supplier for that semiconductor fabrication plant for the subsequent 10 years. Boardman is considering one of two plant designs. The first is Boardman's "standard" plant which will cost $38.8 million to build. The second is for a "custom" plant which will cost $53.4 million to build. The custom plant will allow Boardman to produce the highly specialized gases required for an emergency semiconductor manufacturing process. Boardman estimates that its client will order $12.8 million of product per year if the standard plant is constructed, but if the custom design is put in place, Boardman expects to sell $17.1 million worth of product annually to its client. Boardman has enough money to build…Pharoah Corporation is considering purchasing a new delivery truck. The truck has many advantages over the company's current truck (not the least of which is that it runs). The new truck would cost $56,640. Because of the increased capacity, reduced maintenance costs, and increased fuel economy, the new truck is expected to generate cost savings of $8,000. At the end of eight years, the company will sell the truck for an estimated $27,700. Traditionally, the company has used a general rule that it should not accept a proposal unless it has a payback period that is less than 50% of the asset's estimated useful life. Brian Walker, a new manager. has suggested that the company should not rely only on the payback approach but should also use the net present value method when evaluating new projects. The company's cost of capital is 8%. Calculate the cash payback period and net present value of the proposed investment. (If the net present value is negative, use either a negative sign…
- J&R Construction Company is an international conglomerate with a real estate division that owns the right to erect an office building on a parcel of land in downtown Sacramento over the next year. This building would cost $40 million to construct. Due to low demand for office space in the downtown area, such a building is worth approximately $38 million today. If demand increases, the building would be worth $42.3 million a year from today. If demand decreases, the same office building would be worth only $35 million in a year. The company can borrow and lend at the risk-free annual effective rate of 5.5 percent. A local competitor in the real estate business has recently offered $821,000 for the right to build an office building on the land. What is the value of the office building today? Use the two-state model to value the real option.
