B&B has a new baby powder ready to market. If the firm goes directly to the market with the product, there is only a 55 percent chance of success. However, the firm can conduct customer segment research, which will take a year and cost $875,000. By going through research, B&B will be able to better target potential customers and will increase the probability of success to 70 percent. If successful, the baby powder will bring a present value profit (at time of initial selling) of $16.5 million. If unsuccessful, the present value payoff is $7.5 million. The appropriate discount rate is 13 percent. Calculate the NPV for the firm if it conducts customer segment research and if it goes to market immediately.

Larson, Inc., manufactures backpacks. Last year, it sold 85,000 of its basic model for $25 per unit. The company estimates that this volume represents a 20 percent share of the current market. The market is expected to increase by 15 percent next year. Marketing specialists have determined that as a result of new competition, the company's market share will fall to 16 percent (of this larger market). Due to changes in prices, the new price for the backpacks will be $22 per unit. This new price is expected to be in line with the competition and have no effect on the volume estimates. Required: Estimate Larson's sales revenues from this model of backpack for the coming year. Sales revenue

Electric Boat Corporation ("EBC") designs, manufactures, and markets several lines of sporting boats designed to be powered by proprietary electric engines. The company is evaluating the development of a new line of power boat called the Cruiser 2, and this would require an expansion of its production plant to enable it to produce the Cruiser 2 for the next 5 years. Last year, the company spent $275,000 to do marketing research analysis to estimate market demand for a new power boat line. The company also spent last year $150,000 for an engineering analysis for the new electric engine for the Cruiser 2. The current expansion scenario would have total construction costs of $11.55 million and it would take about 6 months to complete (i.e., essentially up-front). EBC would also put in $7.13 million of new production machinery and equipment. Inventory (raw materials, work-in-process, finished goods) investment needed for the expansion to get started would be $2.33 million. Except for the…
Elise Carpets Inc. has just acquired a new backing division that produces a rubber backing, which it sells for $3.30 per square yard. Sales are about 1,200,000 square yards per year. Since the Backing Division has a capacity of 2,000,000 square yards per year, top management is thinking that it might be wise for the company's Tufting Division to start purchasing from the newly acquired Backing Divi- sion. The Tufting Division now purchases 600,000 square yards per year from an outside supplier at a price of $3.00 per square yard. The current price is lower than the competitive $3.30 price as a result of the large quantity discounts. The Backing Division's cost per square yard follows. Direct materials.. Direct labor.... Variable overhead.. Fixed overhead (1,200,000 level) Total cost.... $1.80 0.45 0.37 0.15 $2.77 Required a. If both divisions are to be treated as investment centers and their performance evaluated by the ROI formula, what transfer price would you recommend? Why? b. If…
