Question 12
Outdoor Sports is considering adding a miniature golf course to its facility. The course would require a $138,000 loan with annual interest of $6,000, and the course would be depreciated on a straight line basis over its 5-year life with a zero salvage value. The estimated income from the golfing fees would be $72,000 a year with $24,000 of that amount being variable cost. The fixed cost would be $11,600. In addition, the firm anticipates an additional $14,000 in revenue from its existing facilities if the golf course is added. However, the firm expects its driving range income will decrease by $9,000 each year since the golf course across town closed down. The project will require $3,000 of net working capital, which is recoverable at the end of the project. If Outdoor Sports has a tax rate of 34 percent and a discount rate of 12 percent, what is the net present value of this project? Hint: Get operational cash flow first.

Annual maintenance costs for the new bridge are estimated to be $27,000. People will be charged a toll of $0.22 per car to use the new bridge. Annual car traffic is estimated at 360,000 cars. The cost of collecting the toll consists of annual salaries for six collectors at $9,000 per collector. The existing bridge can be refurbished for $1,400,000 and would need to be replaced in 24 years. There would be additional refurbishing costs of $80,000 every five years and regular annual maintenance costs of $17,000 for the existing bridge. There would be no toll to use the refurbished bridge.

- Internal Rate of Return Method—Two Projects Munch N’ Crunch Snack Company is considering two possible investments: a delivery truck or a bagging machine. The delivery truck would cost $22,611.6 and could be used to deliver an additional 40,000 bags of pretzels per year. Each bag of pretzels can be sold for a contribution margin of $0.38. The delivery truck operating expenses, excluding depreciation, are $0.52 per mile for 14,000 miles per year. The bagging machine would replace an old bagging machine, and its net investment cost would be $19,417.5. The new machine would require three fewer hours of direct labor per day. Direct labor is $10 per hour. There are 250 operating days in the year. Both the truck and the bagging machine are estimated to have four-year lives. The minimum rate of return is 19%. However, Munch N’ Crunch has funds to invest in only one of the projects.
