The factory is close to its effective capacity now, so the new machine will support sales which are expected to grow linearly during the next four years, topping out at $2,000,000 for years 4 and 5. Sales for each year are forecasted to be: Year 1: $1,000,000 ⚫Year 2: $1,500,000 Year 3: $2,000,000 Year 4: $2,000,000 Year 5: $2,000,000 ⚫ Cash operating costs will be 65% of revenue for each year. The machine has an installed cost of $2,000,000, and will be depreciated straightline over 5 years assuming a 10% salvage value. The salvage amount will also be included as part of the terminal value, representing the amount recaptured at the end of year 5.

There will be no need for additional net working capital in the initial investment,…arrow_forward
- Page 266 MINICASE Flowton Products enjoys a steady demand for stainless steel infiltrators used in a number of chemical processes. Revenues from the infiltrator division are $50 million a year, and production costs are $47.5 million. However, the 10 high-precision Munster stamping machines that are used in the production process are coming to the end of their useful life. One possibility is simply to replace each existing machine with a new Munster. These machines would cost $800,000 each and would not involve any additional operating costs. The alternative is to buy 10 centrally controlled Skilboro stampers. Skilboros cost $1.25 million each, but compared with the Munster, they would produce a total saving in operator and material costs of $500,000 a year. Moreover, the Skilboro is sturdily built and would last 10 years, compared with an estimated seven-year life for the Munster. Analysts in the infiltrator division have produced the accompanying summary table, which shows the…arrow_forwardQUESTION 9 You plan on starting a lawn mowing business by investing $700 of your own money and purchase $500 of equipment.
