Crockett Graphic Designs Inc. is considering two mutually exclusive projects. Both projects require an initial after-tax investment of $11,000 and are typical average-risk projects for the firm. Project A has an expected life of 2 years with after-tax cash inflows of $6,000 and $8,000 at the end of Years 1 and 2, respectively. Project B has an expected life of 4 years with after-tax cash inflows of $5,000 at the end of each of the next 4 years. The firm's WACC is 10%.   a. If the projects cannot be repeated, which project should be selected if Crockett uses NPV as its criterion for project selection?   Project   should be selected.   b. Assume that the projects can be repeated and that there are no anticipated changes in the cash flows. Use the replacement chain analysis to determine the NP of the project selected. Do not round intermediate calculations.   Round your answer to the nearest cent.   Since Project   's extended NPV = $   , it should be selected over Project A   ~ with an…

Niagra Falls Power and Light is considering a project that will produce annual cash flows of $37,500, $46,200, $56,900, and $22,400 over the next four years, respectively. What is the internal rate of return if the project has an initial cost of $113,500?

We are evaluating a project that costs RM604,000, has an 8-year life, and has no salvage value. Assume that depreciation is straight-line to zero over the life of the project. Sales are projected at 55,000 units per year. Price per unit is RM36, variable cost per unit is RM17, and fixed costs are RM685,000 per year. The tax rate is 21 percent and we require a return of 15 percent on this project. (i) Calculate the base-case cash flow and NPV., (ii) Assume the sales figure increases to 56,000 units per year, calculate the sensitivity of NPV to changes in the sales figure?

Blink of an Eye Company is evaluating a 5-year project that will provide cash flows of $35,700, $62,070, $62,450, $60,260, and $43,300, respectively. The project has an initial cost of $158,080 and the required return is 8.3 percent. What is the project's NPV?

Ryan Corporation is considering three investment projects: X, Y, and Z. Project X would require an investment of $20,000, Project Y of $69,000, and Project Z of $83,000. No other cash outflows would be involved. The present value of the cash inflows would be $23,200 for Project X, $77,970 for Project Y, and $94,620 for Project Z. Rank the projects according to the profitability index from most profitable to least profitable. (Ignore income taxes.) (A) Z, X, Y B) X,Z,Y C) Y, X, Z D) Z, Y, X

You are evaluating a project for your company. You estimate the sales price to be $520 per unit and sales volume to be 2,200 units in year 1; 3,200 units in year 2; and 1,700 units in year 3. The project has a three-year life. Variable costs amount to $320 per unit and fixed costs are $210,000 per year. The project requires an initial investment of $335,000 in assets which will be depreciated straight-line to zero over the three-year project life. The actual market value of these assets at the end of year 3 is expected to be $52,000. NWC requirements at the beginning of each year will be approximately 20 percent of the projected sales during the coming year. The tax rate is 21 percent and the required return on the project is 10 percent. What change in NWC occurs at the end of year 1? $104,000 $139,672 $82,160 $176,800

Randall's Ales & Porters S.A., is considering expanding into Costa Rica. As an incentive, Costa Rica agrees not to charge the company any taxes. The project has the following estimated data: price = $94 per unit variable costs = $50.76 per unit fixed costs = $7,600 required return = 16 percent initial investment = $11,000 life = three years depreciable life = three years, straight-line.
