Management is considering whether to expand operations by opening a new chain of care centers in the inner city of large metropolitan areas. For a new facility, initial cash outlays for lease, renovations, net working capital, training, and other costs are expected to be about $18 million. The corporation expects the cash inflows of each new facility in Year 1 to equal zero. Net cash inflows are expected to increase to $5.5 million in each of years 2 and 3; $2.5 million in year 4; and $3.0 million in each of years 5 through 10. The lease agreement for the facility will expire at the end of year 10, and MaxiCare expects the cost to close a facility will pretty much exhaust all cash proceeds from the disposal. Cost of capital for MaxiCare is estimated as 12%. Assume that all cash flows occur at year end. Required: 1. Compute (using the built-in NPV function in Excel) the net present value…arrow_forwardMaxiCare Corporation, a not-for-profit organization, specializes in health care for senior citizens.

- 10.1 Great Lakes Clinic has been asked to provide exclusive healthcare services for next year’s World Exposition. Although flattered by the request, the clinic’s managers want to conduct a financial analysis of the project. An up-front cost of $160,000 is needed to get the clinic ready. Then, a net cash inflow of $1 million is expected from operations in each of the two years of the exposition. However, the clinic has to pay the organizers of the exposition a fee for the marketing value of the opportunity. This fee, which must be paid at the end of the second year, is $2 million. What are the net cash flows associated with the project? What is the project’s internal rate of return (IRR)? Assuming a project cost of capital of 10 percent, what is the project’s net present value (NPV)?arrow_forwardCan someone please help me solve this question using Excel?arrow_forwardA university is trying to determine how much it should charge for tickets to basketball games to help offset the expenses of the new arena. The cost to build the arena including labor, materials. etc. was $92 million. Each year the maintenance cost is expected to increase by 5% as the building gets older. The maintenance cost for the first year is $150.000. Utilities are expected to average about $200,000 per year and labor costs $300,000. The average attendance at basketball games over the year is expected to be 100,000 people (or 100,000 tickets sold to events). Assuming the arena has no other source of income besides regular ticket sales (not including student tickets) for basketball games, what should the university charge sothat it can recover at least 6% cost of borrowing on its investment? The university expects the arena to be used for 40 years and to have no appreciable salvage value.arrow_forward
