The company requires that all investments must have a positive net present value (NPV). The machine costs $100,000 and will be depreciated for tax purposes on a straight-line basis over its useful life of five years. The machine has a $0 salvage value. The project will generate $30,000 of pretax operating cash inflow annually. The company has a 25% effective income tax rate and uses a 10% discount rate for investment projects. Which of the following represents the NPV of the project? Select one: a. $(14,707) b. $(33,661) c. $13,724 d. $4,246

- Question 15 A dairy farm project has an initial requirement of $600,000 for fixed assets (i.e. goats) and $60,000 for net working capital. The price of their special goat cheese packages are $30.00 with a variable cost of $20.00 per package. The goats will be depreciated to a zero book value over the 3-year life of the project and will be worthless at the end of the project because the dairy farmer plans to give the goats away as pets. All of the net working capital will be recouped after 3 years. The expected annual operating cash flow is $240,000.
