Billabong Tech uses the internal rate of return (IRR) to select projects. Calculate the IRR for each of the following projects and recommend the best project based on this measure. Project T-Shirt requires an initial investment of $26,500 and generates cash inflows of $9,000 per year for 7 years. Project Board Shorts requires an initial investment of $38,333 and produces cash inflows of $12,500 per year for 8 years. The IRR of project T-Shirt is %. (Round to two decimal places.)
We are examining a new project. We expect to sell 5,400 units per year at $68 net cash flow apiece for the next 10 years. In other words, the annual operating cash flow is projected to be $68 x 5,400 = 5367,200. The relevant discount rate is 18 percent, and the initial investment required is $1,530,000. After the first year, the project can be dismantled and sold for $1,250,000. Suppose you think it is likely that expected sales will be revised upward to 8,400 units if the first year is a success and revised downward to 4,000 units if the first year is not a success. a. If success and failure are equally likely, what is the NPV of the project? Consider the possibility of abandonment in answering. (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.) NPV b. What is the value of the option to abandon? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.) Option value
The general city population is set to benefit in travel-time savings from a municipal road project amounting to $14,095,000. The local government will incur an initial spending of $11,500,000 and an annual operating and maintenance cost of $400,000. This new road will cut back the need for annual maintenance on other roads by $150,000. Considering an interest rate of 5%, how many years will it take for this project to break even? Round answer to the nearest whole number.
Since the beginning of the fiscal year 2009, Texas Department of Transportation invest one million each year to build up the transportation management database system in one of the Southern Texas city regions. TxDot is planning to transfer this database system to the city authority by the end of the fiscal year 2020. If the rate of return is 12% per year during the investment period, what is the total value of this database system when transferring?
Company X is considering an investment project that requires an initial outlay of $500,000 and is expected to generate annual cash flows of $150,000 for five years. The company's cost of capital is 10%. • Calculate the NPV of the proposed investment project. Determine whether it is financially viable for Company X.
Calculate the NPV for the following project, assuming that the cost of capital is 15 percent and that the initial after tax cost of starting the project is $5,000,000. Assume that it will provide after-tax operating cash inflows as shown below:Year 1: $1,800,000 Year 2: $1,900,000 Year 3: $1,700,000 Year 4: $1,300,000 Calculate the IRR for the following project. The initial after tax cost is $5,000,000. The project is expected to provide after-tax operating cash inflows of $1,800,000 in year 1, $1,900,000 in year 2, $1,700,000 in year 3 and $1,300,000 in year 4? Calculate the IRR for the following project. Assume that its initial after tax cost is $5,000,000 and it is expected to provide after-tax operating cash flows of ($1,800,000) in year 1, $2,900,000 in year 2, $2,700,000 in year 3 and $2,300,000 in year 4?
You are working on a bid to build 4 city parks a year for the next three years. This project requires the purchase of $1,000,000 of equipment that will be depreciated using straight-line depreciation to a zero book value over the three-year project life. The equipment can be sold at the end of the project for $12500. You will also need to invest $18,000 in net working capital for the duration of the project. The fixed costs will be $37,000 a year and the variable costs will be $148,000 per park. Your required rate of return is 14 percent and your tax rate is 21 percent. Make sure your work includes the answers to the following questions. What is the depreciation every year? What is the after-tax salvage value of the equipment at the end of the project? What is the change in net working capital at the beginning and the end of the project? What is the cash flow from assets (CFFA) at each time point? What is the estimated operating cash flow (OCF) the project must generate to make NPV…
ABC, Ltd. is considering the purchase of a new factory that will increase their capacity. They plan to pay for the investment with an amortized bank loan. The annual payments on the loan will be $963,000 per year, of which $363,000 of the first-year payment will be interest. How will the payment and interest be treated in the cash flows for capital budgeting?
The initial investment in a government-funded city flood control system is $500,000. From the initial year to the endless future, materials, maintenance, electric power, and other running expenditures are estimated to reach $10,000 per year. Every five years, major repairs and rehabilitations will be carried out at a cost of $100,000. What is the project's equivalent capitalized cost if the interest rate is 10% per year?
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?
You have been tasked with recommending one of the two investment projects for acceptance by your company. Project 1 costs $100,000 to implement today (it is a cost), it will bring subsequent positive cash flows of $50,000 at the end of year one; and subsequently $30,000; $45,000; $8,000. Project 2 initial cost is $14,000, and subsequent cash flows are $7,000 per year for 3 years. Your company is using WACC of14% for both projects. a. Calculate NPV and IRR for each project, and decide which one to recommend. b. Calculate MIRR for projects A and B. Which project would you recommend based on MIRR? c. Find the crossover rate. What does this rate represent? Describe in YOUR OWN words.
A state highway department is considering a bypass loop that is expected to save motorists $821,000 per year in gasoline and other automobile-related expenses. However, local businesses will experience revenue losses estimated to be $131,000 each year. The cost of the loop will be $8,900,000. Calculate the conventional B/C ratio using an interest rate of 7% per year and a 10-year project period.
