You estimate the salesprice of The Farstroke to be $470 per unit and sales volume tobe 1,200 units in year 1; 1,125 units in year 2; and 1,000 units inyear 3. The project has a 3-year life. Variable costs amount to$260 per unit and fixed costs are $100,000 per year. Theproject requires an initial investment of $144,000 in assets,which can be depreciated using bonus depreciation.

Consider a project to supply Detroit with 25,000 tons of machine screws annually for automobile production. You will need an initial $5,400,000 investment in threading equipment to get the project started; the project will last for 6 years. The accounting department estimates that annual fixed costs will be $1,300,000 and that variable costs should be $245 per ton; accounting will depreciate the initial fixed asset investment straight-line to zero over the 6-year project life. It also estimates a salvage value of $675,000 after dismantling costs. The marketing department estimates that the automakers will let the contract at a selling price of $356 per ton. The engineering department estimates you will need an initial net working capital investment of $520,000. You require a return of 9 percent and face a tax rate of 21 percent on this project. Calculate the accounting, cash, and financial break-even quantities. (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answers to the…

The tax rate is 34 percent and the required return on the project is10 percent. What change in NWC occurs at the end of year 1?
Bailey, Inc., is considering buying a new gang punch that would allow them to produce circuit boards more efficiently. The punch has a fırst cost of $95,000 and a useful life of 15 years. At the end of its useful life, the punch has no salvage value. Annual labor costs would increase $5,000 using the gang punch, but annual raw mnaterial costs would decrease $7,000. MARR is 6.25 %/year. Click here to access the TVM Factor Table Calculator Part a Your answer is incorrect. What is the present worth of this investment? $

A solar lighting system is to be purchased and installed for 310,000. This system will save approximately 300,000 kWh of electric power each year for a 6-year period with no additional O&M costs. Assume the cost of electricity is 10 per kWh, and company’s MARR is 15% per year, and the market value of the system will be 10,000 at EOY 7. Using the PW method, is this a good idea?

For your new laboratory, you plan to purchase energy efficient freezers. There are two models in the market: Model X costs $100,000, and you need two units of model X for your project. Maintaining costs would be $50,000 and decreasing by $10,000 for each unit per year. Each freezer can be used for four years. At the end of which time, you estimate that the salvage value will be $70,000 for both freezers. Model Y costs $250,000 each. The maintaining cost of this model would be $10,000 per year and it would be decreasing by $5,000 starting in year 4. The salvage value of both model Y at the end of seven years is $60,000. Once again, two units of model Y is required for your project. Since you must complete your project in two years, you estimated that, the model X could be sold for $50,000 each and the model Y for $125,000 each after two years. Find the present worth difference between two models using MARR=10%. Question 3 options: a) Between $35,640 and $37,800…

Jamie Williams, the project manager of Arc Systems Ltd. is evaluating a proposal to install solarpanels on the roof of its factory. The panels will cost $150,000 per set. Depending on the price ofelectricity and the efficiency of the panels, the project will increase operating cash flows by either$50,000 per year or $75,000 per year. The useful life of the panels is 5 years. If early resultsindicate savings of $75,000 per year, four additional sets of panels will be installed immediatelyat the same cost with the same projected savings. The probability of either outcome is 50%. Usinga discount rate of 10%:Required:i. Compute the expected NPV of the project if the option to expand is NOT considered. ii. Compute the expected NPV of the project if the option to expand is considered. iii. Why is it important to consider real options in the capital budgeting process? GiveONE (1) specific example.

Use the following base case information to evaluate the project: PT Kolam Makara has a project costs $900,000, has a five-year life, and has a salvage value of $130,000. Depreciation is straight-line to zero. The required return is 14% and tax rate is 34%. Sales are projected at 2350 units per year. Price per unit is $400. Variable cost per unit is $200 and fixed costs are $150,000 per year. It is known that the depreciation expense is $180,000 per year. The engineering department estimates you will need an initial net working capital investment of $50,000. What is the sensitivity of OCF to changes in the variable cost figure at base case?
