Summary Introduction

Adequate information:

    YearUnit Sales
    173,000
    279,000
    384,000
    482,000
    568,000

Initial net working capital (NWC) = $1,500,000

Additional net working capital for Year 1 to Year 4 will be 15% of the projected sales increase in the following year.

Total fixed costs = $3,400,000

Variable cost per unit = $145

Price per unit = $325

Cost of equipment (C) = $18,500,000

Market value = 20% of acquisition cost

Tax rate = 23% or 0.23

Required rate of return, r = 18% or 0.18

To compute: The Net Present Value (NPV) and internal rate of return (IRR) of the project.

Introduction:

Internal rate of return (IRR) is defined as the discount rate at which the aggregate present value of net cash inflows is equal to the aggregate present value of net cash outflows of the project.

Net present value (NPV) is defined as the summation of the present value of cash inflows in each period minus the summation of the present value of cash outflow.

What is considered to be "living on the edge"? Explain.
How close to the edge are the working poor living? Explain.
Suppose three countries’ per capita Gross Domestic Products (GDPs) are £1000, £2000, and £3000. What is the average of each pair of countries’ GDPs per capita? (b) What is the difference between each of the individual observations and the overall average? What is the sum of these differences? (c) Suppose instead of three countries, we had a sample of 100 countries with the same sample average GDP per capita as the overall average for the three observations above, with the standard deviation of these 100 observations being £1000. Form the 95% confidence interval for the population mean. (d) What might explain differences in GDP across countries?       Consider the following regression equation, where Earnings is measured in £/hour, and Experience is measured in years in a particular job, with standard errors in parentheses: Earnings \ = −0.25 (−0.5) + 0.2 (0.1) Experience,   One of these numbers has been reported incorrectly - it shouldn’t be negative. Which one and why? (b)…
