(NPV with different required rates of return) Mooby's is considering building a new theme park. After future cash flows were estimated, but before the project could be evaluated, the economy picked up and with that surge in the economy interest
rates rose. That rise in interest rates was reflected in the required rate of return Mooby's used to evaluate new projects. As a result, the required rate of return for the new theme park jumped from 9.5 percent to 11 percent. If the initial outlay for the
park is expected to be $250 million and the project is expected to return free cash flows of $50 million in years 1 through 5 and $75 million in years 6 and 7, what is the project's NPV using the new required rate of return? How much did the project's
NPV change as a result of the rise in interest rates?
If the required rate of return is 9.5 percent, the project's NPV is $
million. (Round to two decimal places.)

Your answer is partially correct.
Sunland Company is considering a long-term investment project called ZIP. ZIP will require an investment of $123,600. It will have a
useful life of 4 years and no salvage value. Annual cash inflows would increase by $82,400, and annual cash outflows would increase by
$41,200. The company's required rate of return is 12%.

- Use this information for this and the next 2 questions. HCB, Inc. is considering investing in a new 'We're # 1' foam hand cutting facility. If UT has a successful year, then demand will be high and cash flows will be $100,000 per year for 3 years starting in Year 1. If UT has a bad year, then demand will be low and cash flows will be $30,000 per year for 3 years starting in Year 1. The probability of UT having a good year and demand being high is 60% and the probability of a bad year and low demand is 40%. It will cost $150,000 to purchase the equipment. HCB's WACC is 10%.
