Assume this is January 2019.
You’re running a Wine company that has 80% domestic sales and 20% export sales as measured by shipped bottles.
Of the domestic sales, 50% is sold via the restaurant channel, 30% is sold to supermarket chains.
You production capacity for this year 2019 is for 100,000(Q) bottles (from grapes processed in 2018) if you bottle this already this year. This wine is currently kept in wine casks (տակառ)․ If aged the wine will be more valuable. Land, cellar and casket capacity has been fixed since the establishment of your château.
These are prices received (P) and costs per bottle (AC) per sales channel:
Domestic Restaurant channel: Price – 3300AMD, Total Cost (AC) – 1900AMD
Domestic Retail/supermarket channel: Price – 3600AMD, Total Cost – 1900AMD
Export channel: Price – 13USD, Total Cost (incl. shipment) – 4100AMD
Current exchange rate is 485AMD per 1 USD

If the current pump is kept, it will extract 50% of the known crude oil reserve in the first year of operation and the remaining 50% in the second year. A pump larger than the current pump will cost $1.6 million, but it will extract 100% of the known reserve in the first year. The total oil revenues over the two years are the same for both pumps: $20 million. The advantage of the large pump is that it allows 50% of the revenue to be realized a year earlier than the small pump. The two options are summarized as follows: Item current pump Larger Pump Investment, year 0 $0 $1.6 millionRevenue, year 1 $10 million $20 millionRevenue, year 2 $10 million $0If the firm's MARR is known to be 20%, what do you recommend, according to the IRR criterion?arrow_forwardThe president's executive jet is not fully utilized.

- United Pigpen is considering a proposal to manufacture high-protein hog feed. The project would make use of an existing warehouse, which is currently rented out to a neighboring firm. The next year's rental charge on the warehouse is $135,000, and thereafter, the rent is expected to grow in line with inflation at 4% a year. In addition to using the warehouse, the proposal envisages an investment in plant and equipment of $1.41 million. This could be depreciated for tax purposes straight-line over 10 years. However, Pigpen expects to terminate the project at the end of 8 years and to resell the plant and equipment in year 8 for $470,000. Finally, the project requires an immediate investment in working capital of $385,000. Thereafter, working capital is forecasted to be 10% of sales in each of years 1 through 7. Year 1 sales of hog feed are expected to be $4.90 million, and thereafter, sales are forecasted to grow by 5% a year, slightly faster than the inflation rate.
