ANB has a project with $185211 in depreciation expense each year, no changes in net working capital each year, and initial capital expenditures of $461696. The project is expected to last for two years. If the discount rate is 0.080, what constant level of unlevered net income results in a NPV of 0 for this project?
Forecast KMS's free cash flow, assuming KMS's market share will increase by 0.23% per year; investment, financing, and depreciation will be adjusted accordingly; and working capital will be as given in the table
The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 temporarily allows 100% bonus depreciation (effectively expensing capital expenditures). However, we will still include depreciation forecasting in this chapter and in these problems in anticipation of the return of standard depreciation practices
during your career.

- Suppose that the date is 1 January 2022, and you are considering making an investment in General Electric (NYSE: GE). You are given the following information and assumptions to assist you with your valuation analysis: FY2022 revenue (i.e., for the 12-month period from 1 January 2022 to 31 December 2022) is forecast to be $80 billion, compared to actual FY2021 revenue of $75 billion. EBIT, depreciation & amortization (D&A) and capital expenditure dedicated solely for new investments/projects (i.e., growth capital expenditure) is expected to remain fixed (as a percentage of total revenues) at 15%, 5% and 3% respectively.
