As an oil refiner, you are able to produce $76 worth of unleaded gasoline from one barrel of Alaska North Slope (ANS) crude oil. Because of its lower sulfur content, you can produce $77 worth of unleaded gasoline from one barrel of West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude.   Another oil refiner is offering to trade you 10,150 Bbls of Alaska North Slope (ANS) crude oil for 10,000 Bbls of West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude oil. Assuming you currently have 10,000 Bbls of WTI crude, what is the added benefit (cost) to you if you take the trade?

Trader Bubba Industries must choose between solar and an electric-powered forklift truck for moving materials in its factory. Because both forklifts perform the same function, the firm will choose only one. (They are mutually exclusive investments.) The solar truck will cost more but will be less expensive to operate; it will cost $70,000, whereas the electric-powered truck will cost $60,000. The life for both types of truck is estimated to be 8 years, during which time the net cash flows for the solar-powered truck will be $20,000 per year and those for the electric-powered truck will be $12,000 per year. Trader Bubba Industries’ assets are $400 million, financed through bank loans, bonds, preferred stocks, and common stocks.

Darren Mack owns the "Gas n' Go" convenience store and gas station. After hearing a marketing lecture, he realizes that it might be possible to draw more customers to his high-margin convenience store by selling his gasoline at a lower price. However, the "Gas n' Go' is unable to qualify for volume discounts on its gasoline purchases, and therefore cannot sell gasoline for profit if the price is lowered. Each new pump will cost $95,000 to install, but will increase customer traffic in the store by 13,000 customers per year. Also, because the "Gas n' Go" would be selling its gasoline at no profit, Darren plans on increasing the profit margin on convenience store items incrementally over the next five years. Assume a discount rate of 8 percent. The projected convenience store sales per customer and the projected profit margin for the next five years are given in the table below. i Year 1 23 $5 $5.50 $7 $9 $11 a. What is the NPV of the next five years of cash flows if Darren had four new…
