Bill Clinton reportedly was paid $15.0 million to write his book My Life. The book took three years to write. In the time he spent​ writing, Clinton could have been paid to make speeches. Given his​ popularity, assume that he could earn $8.6 million  per year​ (paid at the end of the​ year) speaking instead of writing. Assume his cost of capital is 10.2% per year. a. What is the NPV of agreeing to write the book​ (ignoring any royalty​ payments)? b. Assume​ that, once the book is​ finished, it is expected to generate royalties of $5.2 million in the first year​ (paid at the end of the​ year) and these royalties are expected to decrease at a rate of 30% per year in perpetuity. What is the NPV of the book with the royalty​ payments

Bill Clinton reportedly was paid $10.5 million to write his book My Life. The book took three years to write. In the time he spent writing, Clinton could have been paid to make speeches. Given his popularity, assume that he could earn $8.4 million per year (paid at the end of the year) speaking instead of writing. If his cost of capital is 9.9% per year, then the NPV of agreeing to write the book (ignoring any royalty payments) is $10,426,388. How many IRRs are there in this problem? Does the IRR rule give the right answer in this case? (Note: Consider the upfront payment as a positive cash flow and the opportunity cost of missed speaking fees as negative cash flows.) The IRR is %. (Round to two decimal places.)

(b) Samuel Gumede earns £39,000 a year working for a building company as a project manager. He is considering the possibility of leaving the company and starting his own business. To do this, he will have to use all his £60,000 savings that are currently invested at an interest rate of 2%. He estimates that the annual profit from his own business will be £50,000. Other relevant costs in starting his own business amount to £1,750. Required: Using the information above, calculate the net relevant benefit of Samuel starting his own business.

123 Each of the following scenarios is independent. Assume that all cash flows are after-tax cash flows. Campbell Manufacturing is considering the purchase of a new welding system. The cash benefits will be $480,000 per year. The system costs $1,550,000 and will last 10 years. Evee Cardenas is interested in investing in a women's specialty shop. The cost of the investment is $180,000. She estimates that the return from owning her own shop will be $55,000 per year. She estimates that the shop will have a useful life of 6 years. Barker Company calculated the NPV of a project and found it to be $63,900. The project's life was estimated to be 8 years. The required rate of return used for the NPV calculation was 10%. The project was expected to produce annual after-tax cash flows of $135,000. Required: 1.  Compute the NPV for Campbell Manufacturing, assuming a discount rate of 12%. If required, round all present value calculations to the nearest dollar. Use the minus sign to indicate a…

Sarah Palin reportedly was paid a $11 million advance to write her book Going Rogue. The book took one year to write. In the time she spent writing, Palin could have been paid to give speeches and appear on TV news as a political commentator. Given her popularity, assume that she could have earned $8 million over the year (paid at the end of the year) she spent writing the book. Assume that once her book is finished, it is expected to generate royalties of $5 million in the first year (paid at the end of the year) and these royalties are expected to decrease by 40% per year in perpetuity. Assuming that Palin's cost of capital is 10% and given these royalties payments, the NPV of Palin's book deal is closest to:

You own a restaurant and are considering buying a liquor license. You estimate that it will cost you $200,000 to buy a five-year license and construct a bar, and that you will generate $40,000 in after-tax cash flows each year for the next five years. (The cost of the license is capitalized and the cash flows already reflect the depreciation). If your cost of capital is 15%, estimate the net present value of buying a liquor license. (There is no salvage value at the end of the 5 year). ( z a li). ".(

Brian owns a tanning salon that is expected to produce annual cash flows forever. The tanning salon is worth $636,600.00 and the cost of capital is 6.40%. Annual cash flows are expected with the first one due in one year and all subsequent ones growing annually by 2.30%. What is amount of the annual cash flow produced by the tanning salon in 1 year expected to be? O $55,384.20 (plus or minus $10) O $26,100.60 (plus or minus $10) O $155,268.29 (plus or minus $10) O $15,526,829.27 (plus or minus $10)

What is the NPV of the book with the royalty-payments? a. What is the NPV of agreeing to write the book (ignoring any royalty payments)? The NPV of agreeing to write the book (ignoring any royalty payments) is $(Round to the nearest dollar)
