Transcribed Image Text:You are considering a new product launch. The project will cost $1,675,000, have a four-
year life, and have no salvage value; depreciation is straight-line to zero. Sales are
projected at 195 units per year; price per unit will be $16,300, variable cost per unit will
be $9,400, and fixed costs will be $550,000 per year. The required return on the project
is 12 percent, and the relevant tax rate is 21 percent.
a. Based on your experience, you think the unit sales, variable cost, and fixed cost
projections given here are probably accurate to within +10 percent. What are the
upper and lower bounds for these projections? What is the base-case NPV? What is
the NPV for the best-case and worst-case scenarios? (A negative answer should be
indicated by a minus sign. Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your NPV
answers to 2 decimal places, e.g.., 32.16. Round your other answers to the nearest
whole number, e.g. 32.)
