We are evaluating a project that costs $520,000, has a life of 6 years, and has no salvage value. Assume that depreciation is straight-line to zero over the life of the project. Sales are projected at 73,000 units per year. Price per unit is $45, variable cost per unit is $30, and fixed costs are $840,000 per year. The tax rate is 21 percent, and we require a return of 15 percent on this project. Suppose the projections given for price, quantity, variable costs, and fixed costs are all accurate to within ±10 percent. Calculate the best-case and worst-case NPV figures. (A negative answer should be indicated by a minus sign. Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answers to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)

Problem 7-2 Scenario Analysis We are evaluating a project that costs $1,080,000, has a life of 10 years, and has no salvage value. Assume that depreciation is straight-line to zero over the life of the project. Sales are projected at 52,000 units per year. Price per unit is $50, variable cost per unit is $30, and fixed costs are $730,000 per year. The tax rate is 25 percent, and we require à return of 15 percent on this project. Suppose the projections given for price, quantity, variable costs, and fixed costs are all accurate to within ±10 percent. Calculate the best-case and worst-case NPV figures. (A negative answer should be indicated by a minus sign. Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answers to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.) Best-case NPV Worst-case NPV

Question 10 An investment has an initial cost of $410,000 and will generate the net income amounts shown below. This investment will be depreciated straight line to zero over the 4-year life of the project. Should this project be accepted based on the average accounting rate of return if the required rate is 16 percent? Why or why not? Year Net Income 1 $21,000 2 24,800 3 37,500 4 45,000 Group of answer choices Yes; because the AAR is greater than 16 percent No; because the AAR is less than 16 percent Yes; because the AAR is less than 16 percent Yes; because the AAR is equal to 16 percent No; because the AAR is greater than 16 percent
Question 2 A firm is considering an investment project that has a cost of $1 million and is expected to generate an annual after-tax cash flow of $250,000 for five years. It has already spent $25,000 in research and development (R&D) costs for the project. If the firm's required rate of return is 14 percent and consider R&D a sunck cost, what is the NPV of this project? A $25,000 B -$141,750 C +141,750 D $858,250
7.2 Project Beta is a project which will last for 5 years and which requires an initial outlay of $4,000. This outlay will be depreciated using straight-line depreciation over the life of the project. It will generate incremental revenue of $2600 per year. The value of incremental, after-tax earnings is $888 per year. The project will require Net Working Capital equal to 10% of incremental revenue. What is the value of incremental free cash flow in Years 1 to 5? a. $1688 b. $88 c. $-88 d. $-1688
Question 5 An investment of $50,000 is made to purchase machinery that will allow us to manufacture a new product. The annual expenses to make the product are (5,000 + 5x) and the revenues from the product are 30 x, where x = the number of products sold each year. How many products must be sold per year, x, to break even? Consider a 7 year project life and an MARR of 12%.
