Pisa Pizza Parlor is investigating the purchase of a new $45,000 delivery truck that would contain specially designed warming racks. The new truck would have a six-year useful life. It would save $5,400 per year over the present method of delivering pizzas. In addition, it would result in the sale of 1,800 more pizzas each year. The company realizes a contribution margin of $2 per pizza. Required: (Ignore income taxes.) 1. What would be the total annual cash inflows associated with the new truck for capital budgeting purposes? 2. Find the internal rate of return promised by the new truck to the nearest whole percent.

Consider a project to supply 70 units of a product for the next five years. As the center of operations, you can use a building you own that cost $380 five years ago. Selling the building today would give you $330 after tax. If you start the project, you will not be able to sell the building until the project is over. You estimate that selling the building in 5 years will give you $800 after tax. You will also need to install $2,000 in new equipment at the beginning of the project; the equipment will be depreciated straight-line to zero over the project's five-year life. The equipment can be sold for $1,500 at the end of the project. You will also need $35 in initial net working capital for the project, and an additional investment of $33 annually. All net working capital will be recovered when the project ends. Your variable costs are $28 per unit, and you have fixed costs of $560 per year. Your tax rate is 35% and your required return on this project is 10%. If you were to submit a…

es United Pigpen is considering a proposal to manufacture high-protein hog feed. The project would make use of an existing warehouse, which is currently rented out to a neighboring firm. The next year's rental charge on the warehouse is $150,000, and thereafter, the rent is expected to grow in line with inflation at 4% a year. In addition to using the warehouse, the proposal envisages an investment in plant and equipment of $1.50 million. This could be depreciated for tax purposes straight-line over 10 years. However, Pigpen expects to terminate the project at the end of 8 years and to resell the plant and equipment in year 8 for $500,000. Finally, the project requires an immediate investment in working capital of $400,000. Thereafter, working capital is forecasted to be 10% of sales in each of years 1 through 7. Year 1 sales of hog feed are expected to be $5.20 million, and thereafter, sales are forecasted to grow by 5% a year, slightly faster than the inflation rate. Manufacturing…

Wendell's Donut Shoppe is investigating the purchase of a new $48,300 donut-making machine. The new machine would permit the company to reduce the amount of part-time help needed, at a cost savings of $6,800 per year. In addition, the new machine would allow the company to produce one new style of donut, resulting in the sale of 1.700 dozen more donuts each year. The company realizes a contribution margin of $2.00 per dozen donuts sold. The new machine would have a six-year useful life.

A delivery company is looking at converting their fleet of gasoline vans to electric vehicles. The all electric vans cost $75,000.00 today, minus an electric vehicle tax credit $7,500.00 and the reduced maintenance and fuel cost of $5,000. This brings today's MRC to $62,500.00 for each new electric van. The newer vans are expected to increase future MRP by $12,000.00 each year and have a productive life for five years. At the end of the fifth year, the firm expects to sell the used vans for a salvage value of $30,000.00. This firm is borrowing funds at 6% interest. The table indicates the possible investment for one electric vehicle.

Charlie Corporation is considering buying a new donut maker. This machine will replace an old donut maker that still has a useful life of 6 years. The new machine will cost $3,770 a year to operate, as opposed to the old machine, which costs $4,225 per year to operate. Also, because of increased capacity, an additional 21,700 donuts a year can be produced. The company makes a contribution margin of $0.10 per donut. The old machine can be sold for $8,700 and the new machine costs $31,700. The incremental annual net cash inflows provided by the new machine would be (Ignore income taxes.): Multiple Choice O O O O $455 $2,170 $6,530 $2,625

The Sweetwater Candy Company would like to buy a new machine that would automatically “dip” chocolates. The dipping operation currently is done largely by hand. The machine the company is considering costs $210,000. The manufacturer estimates that the machine would be usable for five years but would require the replacement of several key parts at the end of the third year. These parts would cost $11,300, including installation. After five years, the machine could be sold for $6,000. The company estimates that the cost to operate the machine will be $9,300 per year. The present method of dipping chocolates costs $53,000 per year. In addition to reducing costs, the new machine will increase production by 5,000 boxes of chocolates per year. The company realizes a contribution margin of $1.65 per box. A 19% rate of return is required on all investments.
