Summary Introduction
To determine: The special deal should be made or not made.
Introduction:
Present value (PV):
It is the value that is in present form of money in contrast to some future amount. This is achieved when it is invested in compound interest.
Net present value (NPV):
The NPV is the measurement of profit that is calculated by subtracting the present values of cash outflows and cash inflows. The NPV is used as a tool to measure the profitability of investing in a project.

Bold's Gym, a health club chain, is consideringexpanding into a new location: the initial investment would be $1million in equipment, renovation, and a 6-year lease, and its annualupkeep and expenses would be $75,000 (paid at the beginning of theyear). Its planning horizon is 6 years out, and at the end, it can sell theequipment for $50,000. Club capacity is 500 members who would payan annual fee of$600. Bold's expects to have no problems filling membershipslots. Assume that the interest rate is 10%.a) What is the present value profit/loss of the deal?b) The club is considering offering a special deal to the members inthe first year. For $3,000 upfront they get a full 6-year membership(i .e., I year free). Would it make financial sense to offer this deal?
EMV APPLIED TO CAPACITY DECISION
Southern Hospital Supplies, a company that makes hospital gowns, is considering capacity expansion.APPROACH: c Southern’s major alternatives are to do nothing, build a small plant, build a medium
plant, or build a large plant. The new facility would produce a new type of gown, and currently the po-tential or marketability for this product is unknown. If a large plant is built and a favorable market ex-ists, a profit of $100,000 could be realized. An unfavorable market would yield a $90,000 loss. However,
a medium plant would earn a $60,000 profit with a favorable market. A $10,000 loss would result froman unfavorable market. A small plant, on the other hand, would return $40,000 with favorable marketconditions and lose only $5,000 in an unfavorable market. Of course, there is always the option of doingnothing.Recent market research indicates that there is a .4 probability of a favorable market, which meansthat there is also a .6 probability of an…
1: Suppose the company has identified the following three possible demand scenarios: Demand (Units per year) Probability 25,000 0.3 60,000 0.4 100,000 0.3 1. If the capacity is set at 80,000, how much of a capacity cushion is here? What is the capacity utilization? 2. What is the probability of idle capacity if the capacity is 80,000? 3. If it costs $25 per units lost business and $50 to build a unit of capacity, how much capacity should be built to minimize total cost?

- Problems 2 Helen Murvis, hospital administrator for Portland General Hospital, is trying to determine whether to build a large wing onto the existing hospital, a small wing, or no wing at all. If the population of Portland continues to grow, a large wing could return $150,000 to the hospital each year. If the small wing were built, it would return S$60,000 to the hospital each year if the population continues to grow. If the population of Portland remains the same, the hospital would encounter a loss of $85,000 if the large wing were built. Furthermore, a loss of $45,000 would be realized if the small wing were constructed and the population remains the same. Unfortunately, Helen does not have any information about the future population of Portland * Develop a decision table for this problem. * Determine the best decision using the following decision criteria 1.

- A biotech firm is considering abandoning its old plant, built 23 years ago, andconstructing a new facility that has 50% more square footage. The original cost of the old facility was $300,000, and its capacity in terms of standardizedproduction units is 250,000 units per year. The capacity of the new laboratoryis to be 400,000 units per year. During the past 23 years, costs of laboratoryconstruction have risen by an average of 5% per year.
