- Roberts Company is considering an investment in equipment that is capable of producing more efficiently than the current technology. The outlay required is 2,293,200. The equipment is expected to last five years and will have no salvage value. The expected cash flows associated with the project are as follows: Required: 1. Compute the projects payback period. 2. Compute the projects accounting rate of return. 3. Compute the projects net present value, assuming a required rate of return of 10 percent. 4. Compute the projects internal rate of return.Although the Chen Company’s milling machine is old, it is still in relatively good working order and would last for another 10 years. It is inefficient compared to modern standards, though, and so the company is considering replacing it. The new milling machine, at a cost of $110,000 delivered and installed, would also last for 10 years and would produce after-tax cash flows (labor savings and depreciation tax savings) of $19,000 per year. It would have zero salvage value at the end of its life. The project cost of capital is 10%, and its marginal tax rate is 25%. Should Chen buy the new machine?You are considering a proposal to produce and market a new sluffing machine. The most likely outcomes for the project are as follows: Expected sales: 115,000 units per year Unit price: $220 Variable cost: $132 Fixed cost: $4,890,000 The project will last for 10 years and requires an initial investment of $16.70 million, which will be depreciated straight-line over the project life to a final value of zero. The firm's tax rate is 30%, and the required rate of return is 12%. However, you recognize that some of these estimates are subject to error. In one scenario a sharp rise in the dollar could cause sales to fall 30% below expectations for the life of the project and, if that happens, the unit price would probably be only $210. The good news is that fixed costs could be as low as $3,260,000, and variable costs would decline in proportion to sales. a. What is project NPV if all variables are as expected? Note: Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answer in thousands not in…
- (Related to Checkpoint 13.4) (Break-even analysis) The Marvel Mfg. Company is considering whether or not to construct a new robotic production facility.

- You are considering a proposal to produce and market a new sluffing machine. The most likely outcomes for the project are as follows: Expected sales: 125,000 units per year Unit price: $240 Variable cost: $144 Fixed cost: $5,430,000 The project will last for 10 years and requires an initial Investment of $21.78 million, which will be depreciated straight-line over the project life to a final value of zero.

Note: Do not round Intermediate calculations. Enter your answer in thousands not in…The golf range is considering adding an additional driving range to its facility. The range would cost $229000 would be depreciated on a straight line basis over its seven year life, and would have a zero salvage value. The anticipated revenue from the project is $62500 a year with $18400 of that amount being variable cost. The fixed cost would be $15700. The firm believes that it will earn an additional $22500 a year from its current operations should the driving range be added. The project will require $3000 of net working capital, which is recoverable at the end of the project. What is the internal rate of return on this project at a tax rate of 21 percent?Trillian Ltd. is considering replacing a piece of old machinery. The machine has a book value of $80,000 and a remaining useful life of 3 years and no salvage value. A new, more efficient machine is available at a cost of $300,000 that will have a 3-year useful life with no salvage value. The new machine will lower annual variable production costs from $520,000 to $410,000 for each of the next three years. What will the net savings be over the next three years if Trillian buys the new machinery?
- Dell is considering replacing one of its material handling systems. It has an annual O&M cost of $48,000, a remaining operational life of 8 years, and an estimated salvage value of $6,000 at that time. A new system can be purchased for $175,000. It will be worth $50,000 in 8 years, and it will have annual O&M costs of only $17,000 per year due to new technology. If the new system is purchased, the old system will be traded in for $55,000, even though the old system can be sold for only $45,000 on the open market. Leasing a new system will cost $31,000 per year, payable at the beginning of the year, plus operating costs of $15,000 per year payable at the end of the year. If the new system is leased, the existing material handling system will be sold for its market value of $45,000. Use a planning horizon of 8 years, an annual worth analysis, and MARR of 15% to decide which material handling system to recommend: (i) keep existing, (ii) trade in existing and purchase new, or (iii)…Consider the following project for Hand Clapper, Inc. The company is considering a 4-year project to manufacture clap-command garage door openers. This project requires an initial investment of $16.7 million that will be depreciated straight-line to zero over the project’s life. An initial investment in net working capital of $1,070,000 is required tosupport spare parts inventory; this cost is fully recoverable whenever the project ends. The company believes it can generate $14.3 million in revenues with $5.8 million in operating costs. The tax rate is 22 percent and the discount rate is 14 percent. Themarket value of the equipment over the life of the project is as follows:d.
