Question
Director of Facilities: A construction contract was signed in
late 20Y5 for the construction of a new factory building at a
contract cost of $10,000,000. The construction is scheduled
to begin in 20Y6 and be completed in 2009.
Vice President of Manufacturing: Once the new factory
building is finished, we plan to purchase $1.5 million in
equipment in late 20Y7. I expect that an additional
$200,000 will be needed early in the following year (2018)
to test and install the equipment before we can begin
production. If sales continue to grow, I expect we'll need to
invest another $1,000,000 in equipment in 20Y9.
Chief Operating Officer: We have really been growing lately
I wouldn't be surprised if we need to expand the size of our
new factory building in 20Y9 by at least 35%. Fortunately,
we expect inflation to have minimal impact on construction
costs over the next four years. Additionally, I would expect
the cost of the expansion to be proportional to the size of
the expansion.
Director of Information Systems: We need to upgrade our
information systems to wireless network technology. It
doesn't make sense to do this until after the new factory
building is completed and producing product. During 20Y8,
once the factory is up and running, we should equip the
whole facility with wireless technology. I think it would cost
us $800,000 today to install the technology. However,
prices have been dropping by 25% per year, so it should be
less expensive at a later date.
Chief Financial Officer: I am excited about our long-term
prospects. My only short-term concern is managing our
cash flow while we expend the $4,000,000 of construction
costs in 2016 and $6,000,000 in 20Y7 on the portion of the
new factory building scheduled to be completed in 2009.
