- Problem 21-11 Deposits in Leasing The Wildcat Oil Company is trying to decide whether to lease or buy a new computer- assisted drilling system for its oil exploration business. Management has decided that it must use the system to stay competitive; it will provide $2.6 million in annual pretax cost savings. The system costs $7.7 million and will be depreciated straight-line to zero over its five-year life, after which it will be worthless. Wildcat's tax rate is 21 percent and the firm can borrow at 6 percent. Lambert Leasing Company has offered to lease the drilling equipment to Wildcat for payments of $1,660,000 per year. Lambert's policy is to require its lessees to make payments at the start of the year. Suppose Lambert requires Wildcat to pay a $790,000 security deposit at the inception of the lease. Calculate the NAL with the security deposit.

- QUESTION 3 The executive management at Xuixa Ltd has decided to introduce a new product line. To achieve this, management has to invest in one of two (2) types of equipment. Option 1 The equipment ‘R’ will cost P200, 000 and is expected to have a life span of five (5) years with no residual value. The company would need to incur a cost of P40, 000 for safe disposal of the equipment at the end of its life span. It is estimated the equipment could yield net returns of P50, 000 in the first three years and net returns of P40, 000 in the last two years. Option 2 The equipment ‘S’ will cost 350,000 and its estimated useful life is four years. There will be no residual value. Acquiring this equipment will involve additional cost of training of P30, 000 for staff that will operate the equipment. It is estimated that the equipment could yield net returns of P80, 000 in the first year, P120, 000 in years 2-3 and P100, 000 in year 4. Required: For both options, calculate: The payback…arrow_forwardQuestion 1 XYZ Ltd has spent £100,000 on research and development of a new product, expected to have a short economic life of two years only. The product development manager has recommended this production opportunity for consideration at the company's board. She believes that the new product perfectly fits the firm's strategic plan. The new product has already attracted the strong interest of a rival business, and if XYZ Ltd decides not to go ahead with production, it can sell the patent rights to the competitor for £160,000. The marketing manager has suggested that annual revenues will depend on whether the demand for the new product is weak or strong, forecasting the following levels of annual demand and the independent probability of each level of demand for the two years of the project's life: Year 1 Year 2 Probability Sales (units) 350,000 Probability Sales (units) 450,000 0.2 0.3 350,000 200,000 90,000 0.3 300,000 100,000 90,000 0.3 0.3 0.2 0.2 0.2 Manufacture of the new product…arrow_forwardQuestion 33 Brandt Enterprises is considering a new project that has a cost of $1,000,000, and the CFO set up the following simple decision tree to show its three most likely scenarios.

- Problem 10.24Blanda Incorporated management is considering investing in two alternative production systems. The systems are mutually exclusive, and the cost of the new equipment and the resulting cash flows are shown in the accompanying table.

Compute the NPV for both production system 1 and production system 2. (Round answers to 2 decimal places, e.g. 15.25 or 15.25%.)NPV of system 1 is $ ____ and NPV of system 2 is ____d). Which production system has the higher NPV? System 1 or System 2?arrow_forwardQuestion 20 Arrow Electronics is considering Projects S and L, which are mutually exclusive, equally risky, and not repeatable. Project S has an initial cost of $1 million and cash inflows of $370,000 for 4 years, while Project L has an initial cost of $2 million and cash inflows of $720,000 for 4 years. The CEO wants to use the IRR criterion, while the CFO favors the NPV method, using a WACC of 6.67%. You were hired to advise the firm on the best procedure. If the wrong decision criterion is used, how much potential value would the firm lose? That is, what is the difference between the NPVs for these two projects?

The jet, which is to provide international mobility to the company's most senior executives, cost RM40 million (excluding tax). The company intends keeping the jet until it is obsolete (i.e. 20 years) at which time it is expected to have no residual value. Although the invoice did not provide an analysis of the purchase price, it can reasonably be allocated as follows: RM Components engines Additional information: 20,000,000 Estimated useful life 10 years with no residual value 14,000,000 Estimated useful life 20 years with no residual value airframe Furniture and fittings 4,000,000 Estimated useful life 5 years with no residual value 2,000,000 Such inspections are required by aviation authorities every two years Inspection costs 40,000,000 Additional information: On 30 June 20X2, for reasons of convenience, the company undertook the requisite inspection six months earlier than…arrow_forwardProblem 11.9: You recently went to work for Allied Components Company, a supplier of auto repair parts used in the after-market with products from Daimler AG, Ford, Toyota and other automakers. Your boss, the chief financial officer (CFO), has just handed you an assignment that includes the estimated cash flows for two proposed projects. The project's are related to the firm's ignition system line, but you are unsure if the projects are independent or mutually exclusive so ranking the two projects would be helpful. Allied requires a rate of return on projects like this of 14 percent and a maximum payback period of 4 years. The cash flows for the two projects are provided below and to prepare your analysis you have decided to do the following: 1. Calculate the payback period, NPV and IRR for both projects. 2.
