Q- Hardik Use the following information to answer the next three questions: You are evaluating a project for The Dogs, that involves the purchase of a new dog biscuit making machine. The project has a three year life and you estimate the project will increase revenues by $165,000 and will increase costs by $30,000 each year. The project requires an initial investment of $120,000 which is depreciated on a straight-line basis to zero over the 3 year project life. The machine will be sold at the end of the project for $35,000. The initial net working capital investment required for this project is $14,000 which will be recovered at the end of the project's life. The tax rate is 25% and the required return on the project is 10%. What is the total cash flow for the project in year 3? A. $ 151,500 B. $ 111,250 C. $ 125.250 D. $137,500
16) New-Project Analysis The Campbell Company is considering adding a robotic paint sprayer to its production line. The sprayer's base price is $810,000, and it would cost another $19,500 to install it. The machine falls into the MACRS 3-year class, and it would be sold after 3 years for $471,000. The MACRS rates for the first three years are 0.3333, 0.4445, and 0.1481. The machine would require an increase in net working capital (inventory) of $16,500. The sprayer would not change revenues, but it is expected to save the firm $314,000 per year in before-tax operating costs, mainly labor. Campbell's marginal tax rate is 25%. (Ignore the half-year convention for the straight-line method.) Cash outflows, if any, should be indicated by a minus sign. Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to the nearest dollar. What is the Year-0 net cash flow? ________$ What are the net operating cash flows in Years 1, 2, and 3? Year 1: $ Year 2: $ Year 3: $…
Give typing answer with explanation and conclusion The Bruin's Den Outdoor Gear is considering a new 6-year project to produce a new tent line. The equipment necessary would cost $1.29 million and be depreciated using straight-line depreciation to a book value of zero. At the end of the project, the equipment can be sold for 15 percent of its initial cost. The company believes that it can sell 23,500 tents per year at a price of $64 and variable costs of $25 per tent. The fixed costs will be $395,000 per year. The project will require an initial investment in net working capital of $193,000 that will be recovered at the end of the project. The required rate of return is 10.7 percent and the tax rate is 21 percent. What is the NPV? a) $848,697 b) $655,697 c) $572,631 d) $743,822 e) $677,778

Questions and Problems (cont.) 3. Massey Machine Shop is considering a four-year project to improve its production efficiency. Buying a new machine press for $450,000 is estimated to result in $150,000 in annual pretax cost savings. The press falls in the MACRS five-year class, and it will have a salvage value at the end of the project of $90,000. The press also requires an initial investment in spare parts inventory of $18,000, along with an additional $3,000 in inventory for each succeeding year of the project. If the shop's tax rate is 35 percent and its discount rate is 14 percent, should Massey buy and install the machine press?

A new equipment is being considered to replace an old equipment in a facility. The equipment would cost $7,480 and it would require a special maintenance at year 10 of the life expectancy of the equipment, which is of 15 years (also life of the project). The new equipment will generate savings in the order of $1,000 per year. If a discount rate of 6% is used what is the maximum cost of the maintenance at year 10 to make the project to be considered as a feasible option? answer is 4000 but how
