XYZ Inc is looking at a project to manufacture widgets. Assume we have the following data: • The initial cost of the project is $1,080,000. • The project is expected to last 7 years, at which time the project will be abandon. • Assume each widget will cost $8.00 each to produce and the selling price will be $12.00. Production fixed costs are expected to be $248,400 annually. • The company has computed that the PVCCATS associated with this project will be $237,600. Also, the company uses a discount rate of 9% for capital projects and XYZ pays tax at a rate of 10%. XYZ is unsure as to how many widgets they will sell annually. The marketing department has provided that the expected number of units sold annually, N is E(N) = 128,000 units with a standard deviation of o = 21,000 units. (a) Compute the expected NPV, E(NPV) of this project. 数字 (b) Compute the standard deviation of the NPV of this project. 数字 (c) Compute the NPV breakeven point of this project. 数字 units. (d) Based on the expected NPV calculation, should XYZ Inc proceed with this project? Yes Ο No

Question: Your client is asking you to design a Flux Capacitor. The Flux Capacitor is expected to cost $5,200 to build. If operations and maintenance costs are anticipated to be 15% of the build costs the first year of operation and operation and maintenance costs will increase by 6% each year after, how much will your client have invested in the Flux Capacitor after 5 years? Notes from instructor: I have had a few questions about the Econ. Assignment. I want to clarify that the 6% interest rate does not accumulate over 4 years and it is not added to the 15%. If something increases by the interest it is (1+i) each year. I recommend finding the cost of each year and then summing them up. The equation is not direct from the FE manual so this is going to best your best course of action for now.
