As the CEO of a western wear manufacturing company called Over Y'alls. Your marketing department has come up with two potential work boots which you believe will only have a large enough demand to maintain market for five years (before the style gets old). You believe that the adoption of one of those two products will not affect the viability of the other product. You estimate that Style 1 will cost $45,545 up front to set up, whereas Style 2 will cost $53,416 up front. The expected cash flows from those two boot designs over the life of the boots can be found in the table below. Both projects have similar risks to current projects at Over Y'Alls, therefore the appropriate discount rate for both projects should be our current WACC of 7.51%. Calculate the net present value of both projects, and enter in the box below how much the value of the firm is expected to increase based on this capital budget (please enter the amount to the nearest penny).

Cindy Jo's Hair Salon is concerned about its rising costs of supplies, energy, and labor, so it is considering investing in better equipment, which hopefully will reduce the time required to perform most hairstyles as well as result in better perceived quality by its customers. It predicts that the added investment will increase output levels as well as reduce energy costs, since some of the new equipment (hair dryers) use less electricity.

A moped company produces 200,000 units a year and expects output levels to remain steady in the future. It buys chains from an outside producer. The manager believes that the chains can be made in house at an additional cost of $0.40 per chain. However, the manager believes that the quality of the product is slightly better and she’ll be able to add $1.0 to the selling price per unit without reducing the 200,000 units sold per year. The new machinery would cost $260,000 and the entire cost would be depreciated straight line over 10 years. The inhouse production would require $26,000 of inventory and other working capital upfront (year 0), which can be recovered at the end of the 10th year. The proceeds from selling the machine after 10 years would be $20,000. The company pays a tax rate of 20%. a. What are the incremental annual cash flows associated with changing the production of the chains from outsourcing to in-house? b. What is the IRR of the option to switch to an inhouse…

A company is trying to predict the long-run market share of a new men's deodorant. Based on initial marketing studies, they believe that 30% of new purchasers in this market will ultimately try this brand, and of these, about 55% will purchase it in the future. Preliminary data also suggest that the brand will attract heavier-than-average buyers, such as those who exercise frequently and participate in sports, and that they will purchase about 15% more than the average buyer. Complete parts a and b. a. Calculate the long-run market share that the company can anticipate under these assumptions. The long-run market share is (Type an integer or a decimal rounded to three decimal places as needed.) b. Let T = proportion of customers trying the brand, R = proportion of customers who repurchase, and B = buyer index (which is 1.0 for the average buyer).

PLEASE SOLVE IN EXCEL :B&B has a new baby powder ready to market. If the firm goes directly to the market with the product, there is only a 60 percent chance of success. However, the firm can conduct customer segment research, which will take a year and cost $1.21 million. By going through research, the company will be able to better target potential customers and will increase the probability of success to 75 percent. If successful, the baby powder will bring a present value profit (at time of initial selling) of $19.1 million. If unsuccessful, the present value payoff is only $6.1 million. The appropriate discount rate is 14 percent. Calculate the NPV for the firm if it goes to market immediately and if it conducts customer segment research. (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answers in dollars, not millions of dollars, rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 1,234,567.89.)
