You are considering the following project. What is the NPV of the project? WACC of the project: 0.10 Revenue growth rate: 0.05 Tax rate: 0.40 Revenue for year 1: 13,000 Fixed costs for year 1: 3,000 variable costs (% of revenue): 0.30 project life: 3 years Economic life of equipment: 3 years Cost of equipment: 20,000 Salvage value of equipment: 4,000 Initial investment in net working capital: 2,000
Plot a sensitivity graph for annual worth versus initial cost, annual revenue, and salvage value for the data below. Vary only one
parameter at a time, each within the range of -20% to +20%. MARR is 3%/year. Project life is 4 years. Based on your graph, which
parameter shows the MOST sensitivity? Initial Cost: $120,000- Annual Revenue: $25,000 - Salvage Value: $35,000
O Cannot be determined
O Annual Revenue
O Initial Cost
O Salvage Value

Assume that each of these variables deviates from its base-case, or expected value by plus or minus 10%, 20%, and 30%.The base case value for unit sales is 150,000. Calculate NPV for each case (18 NPV in total), then draw a graph with three lines (one for unit sales, one for salvage value, and one for WACC). At the end, perform a sensitivity analysis for the project (what you have seen, what conclusions you can make?). 3. What is the primary weakness of sensitvity analysis?
