QUESTION 5 A company is thinking about marketing a new product. Up-front costs to market and develop the product are $14.56 Million. The product is expected to generate profits of $1.39 million per year for 26 years. The company will have to provide product support expected to cost $294051 per year in perpetuity. Furthermore, the company expects to invest $40821 per year for 11 years for renovations on the product. This investing would start at the end of year 7. Assume all profits and expenses occur at the end of the year. Calculate the NPV of this project if the interest rate is 7.45%. NOTE: Answer in $. If your answer is 220M, you must answer 220000000.0000. HINT. Compute the present value of all cash flows and then combine them.

QUESTION 3 You are considering starting a new factory producing small electric heaters. Each unit will sell at a price of $55. The production cost of each heater is $35. You are expecting to sell 9000 units per year. This project has an economic life of 6 years. The project requires an investment of $700000 in plants and equipment. This equipment will be depreciated to zero salvage value based on 5-year MACRS schedule. The depreciation rates from year 1 to 6 are 20 % ,32 %, 19.2 %, 11.52 %, 11.52 %, and 5.76 percent, respectively. The company will sell its old equipment for $100,000. The old machine is fully depreciated. The required rate of return for the project is 12 percent, the working capital requirement is 10 percent of the next year's sales revenue. The marginal corporate tax rate is 20 percent. At the termination of the project, the plant and equipment will be sold for an estimated value of $50000. Based on these assumptions, estimate the cash flow for capital expenditures.…

#4 Caspian Sea Drinks is considering the production of a diet drink. The expansion of the plant and the purchase of the equipment necessary to produce the diet drink will cost $27.00 million. The plant and equipment will be depreciated over 10 years to a book value of $2.00 million, and sold for that amount in year 10. Net working capital will increase by $1.48 million at the beginning of the project and will be recovered at the end. The new diet drink will produce revenues of $9.35 million per year and cost $1.56 million per year over the 10-year life of the project. Marketing estimates 17.00% of the buyers of the diet drink will be people who will switch from the regular drink. The marginal tax rate is 24.00%. The WACC is 10.00%. Find the IRR (internal rate of return). Answer format: Percentage Round to: 4 decimal places (Example: 9.2434%, % sign required. Will accept decimal format rounded to 6 decimal places (ex: 0.092434))

* 00 The management of Ballard MicroBrew is considering the purchase of an automated bottling machine for $67000. The machine would replace an old piece of equipment that costs $18,000 per year to operate. The new machine would cost $8.000 per year to operate. The old machine currently in use could be sold now for a salvage value of $29,000. The new machine would have a useful life of 10 years with no salvage value. 1 What is the annual depreciation expense associated with the new bottling machine? 2 What is the annual incremental net operating income provided by the new bottling machine? 3. What is the amount of the initial investment associated with this project that should be used for calculating the simple rate of return? 4.
