2. An investment has an installed cost of $412,670. The cash flows over the four-year life of the investment are projected to be $212,817, $153,408, $102,389, and $72,308. If the discount rate is zero, what is the NPV? If the discount rate is infinite, what is the NPV? At what discount rate is the NPV just equal to zero? Sketch the NPV profile for this investment based on these three points.
Just because a project’s payback period is relatively long doesn’t mean it is not profitable in the long run. Consider an investment in LED lights with a price tag of $239,000. The estimated annual savings in electricity and routine maintenance is $40,300 and the life of the LED lights is 20 years. Solve, a. What is the simple payback period for the lights? b. What is the IRR of this investment? c. What do you conclude from Part (a) and Part (b)?
QUESTION 1 Agro Tech Corporation is considering investing in a new IT system for selling to its clients. The company has identified two new possible systems, which would be suitable for its customers. Only one of the systems can be selected and the directors are looking for guidance on which system would be the best. The company requires a 15% rate of return on projects of this nature. The installation cost per project will be R100 000 each, while systems can be disposed for R200 000 each after five- years life span.

Ehrmann Data Systems is considering a project that has the following cash flow and WACC data. What is the project's MIRR? Note that a project's projected MIRR can be less than the WACC (and even negative), in which case it will be rejected.

a. What is the net present value (at the discount rate of 10%) of this project?b. Perot’s engineers have determined that spending $10 million more on development will allow them to add even more advanced features. Having a more advanced chip will allow them to price the chip $50 higher in both years ($870 for year 1 and $700 for year 2). What is the NPV of the project if this option is implemented?c. If sales are only 200,000 the first year and 100,000 the second year, what would the NPV of the project be? Assume the development costs and sales price are as originally estimated. Development cost - $1,250,000Estimated development time - 9 monthsPilot testing - $200,000Ramp-up cost - $400,000Marketing and support cost - $150,000/yrSales & Production volume - $60,000/yrUnit production cost - $100Unit price - $205Interest rate - 8%
The Miramar Company is going to introduce one of three new products: a Widget, a Hummer, or a Nimnot. The market conditions (favourable, Stable, or unfavourable) will determine the profit or loss the company realizes, as shown In the following payoff table: State of Nature Favourable Stable Unfavourable Product 0.2 0.7 0.1 $ $ $ Widget 120,000 70,000 -30,000 Hummer 60,000 40,000 20,000 Nimnot 35,000 30,000 30,000 Required: 1. Develop the opportunity loss table and compute the expected opportunity loss for each product. 2.

Not Using Excel You must find the payback for a project, and you have misplaced some of the information that you weregiven. You know that the project will generate positive cash flows of $60,000 per year at the end of each ofthe next 5 years, that its NPV is $75,000, and that the company's WACC is 10%. What is the project's regularpayback? Hint: You must first find the project's cost, then use it to find the payback.
Ch 7. Decision Trees. For questions 12 and 13, please use the following information: Ang Electronics, Inc., has developed a new DVDR. If the DVDR is successful, the present value of the payoff (when the product is brought to market) is $28.6 million. If the DVDR fails, the present value of the payoff is $10.2 million. If the product goes directly to market, there is a 40 percent chance of success. Alternatively, the company can delay the launch by one year and spend $1.42 million to test market the DVDR. Test marketing would allow the firm to improve the product and increase the probability of success to 70 percent. The appropriate discount rate is 11 percent. Calculate the NPV of test marketing before going to market. Format answer as "XX,XXX,XXX.XX"
