Chapter 10, Problem 1QP
Relevant Cash Flows [LO1] Parker & Slone, Inc., is looking at setting up a new manufacturing plant in South Park to produce garden tools. The company bought some land six years ago for $3.5 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 $3.9 million. The company wants to build its new manufacturing plant on this land; the plant will cost $16.7 million to build, and the site requires $850,000 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? Why?

2 Net Present Value (NPV) Example 1 (Ross et al., 2023, pp. 299-300): We want to establish a new fertilizer business. The project costs $30,000 to launch. The project can generate cash revenues of $20,000 per year. The project will incur cash costs (including taxes) of $14,000 per year. The project will be terminated in 8 years and the project's assets can be sold for $2,000 at that time. A 15% discount rate is appropriate for this project. a. Should we undertake this project? b. If there are 1,000 shares of stock outstanding, what will be the effect on the price per share from taking the project?
