Retlaw Corporation (RC) manufactures time-series photographic equipment. It is currently at its target debt - equily ratio
of 0.78. It's considering building a new $42 million manufacturing facility. This new plant is expected to generate after-
tax cash flows of $8.2 million in perpetuity. The company raises all equity from outside financing. There are three
finanding options: A new issue of common stock: The flotation costs of the new common stock would be 8% of the
amount ralsed. The required refurn on the company's new equity is 16%. A new issue of 20 - vear bonds: The flotation
costs of the new bonds would be 4% of the proceeds. If the company issues these new bonds at an annual coupon rate
of 8.0%, they will sell at par. Increased use of accounts payable financing: Because this financing is part of the
company's ongoing dally business, it has no flotation costs, and the company assigns it a cost that is the same as the
overall firm WACC. Management has a target ratio of accounts payable to long-term debt of 0.170. (Assume there is
no difference between the pre-tax and after-tax accounts payable cost. What is the NPV of the new plant? Assume that
