Knotts, Incorporated, an all-equity firm, is considering an investment of $1.89 million that will be depreciated according to the straight-line method over its four-year life. The project is expected to generate earnings before taxes and depreciation of $616,000 per year for four years. The investment will not change the risk level of the firm. The company can obtain a four-year, 9.6 percent loan to finance the project from a local bank. All principal will be repaid in one balloon payment at the end of the fourth year. The bank will charge the firm $66,000 in flotation fees, which will be amortized over the four-year life of the loan. If the company financed the project entirely with equity, the firm's cost of capital would be 11 percent. The corporate tax rate is 25 percent. Using the adjusted present value method, calculate the APV of the project. (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer in dollars, not millions of dollars, rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g.,…
Gemini, Inc., an all-equity firm, is considering a $1.7 million investment that will be depreciated according to the straight-line method over its four-year life. The project is expected to generate earnings before taxes and depreciation of $595,000 per year for four years. The investment will not change the risk level of the firm. The company can obtain a four-year, 9.5 percent loan to finance the project from a local bank. They will receive the total amount needed for investment ($1.7 million at time 0 and all principal will be repaid in one balloon payment at the end of the fourth year (similar to a bond). Every year the company would need to pay interest (@9.5%). If the company finances the project entirely with equity, the firm’s cost of capital would be 13 percent. The corporate tax rate is 30 percent. Calculate the cash flows and NPV for the two cases:
A company has the option to invest in project A, project B, or neither (the projects are mutually exclusive and the company has no other investment options). Project A requires an initial investment of $100,000 today and provides cash flows of $30,000 a year for five years. Project B requires a $875,000 investment today and will have cash flows of $200,000 a year for 4 years, with a final cashflow of $300,000 in year 5. The firm's hurdle rate (discount rate) for these projects is 8%. Which project should be selected? O (a) A (b) В (c) Neither

CII, Incorporated, invests $700,000 in a project expected to earn a 9% annual rate of return. The earnings will be reinvested in the project each year until the entire investment is liquidated 11 years later. What will the cash proceeds be when the project is liquidated? (PV of $1, FV of $1, PVA of $1, and FVA of $1) (Use appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided. Round your "FV of a single amount" to 4 decimal places and final answer to the nearest whole dollar.) Present Value X f (FV of a Single Amount) Future Value
The firm gets 100% of its capital from common stock. The equity holder’s required rate of return is 10% and the firm’s tax rate is 0%. The project involves an immediate investment of $13,000 for the purchase and installation of equipment. The equipment will be depreciated straight-line, over 4 years, down to a salvage value of $ 0. The project is expected to generate operating cashflows [=ebit(1-t)+dep] in the amount of $4,200 at the end of each of the next four years. Assume that at the end of the fourth year the related equipment is sold which generates an additional after-tax cashflow of $1,800. What is the weighted average cost of capital (WACC)? What are the total cashflows for each year (please indicate positive or negative)?
