United Pigpen is considering a proposal to manufacture high-protein hog feed. The project would make use of an existing warehouse,
which is currently rented out to a neighboring firm. The next year's rental charge on the warehouse is $150,000, and thereafter, the
rent is expected to grow in line with inflation at 4% a year. In addition to using the warehouse, the proposal envisages an investment in
plant and equipment of $1.50 million. This could be depreciated for tax purposes straight-line over 10 years. However, Pigpen expects
to terminate the project at the end of 8 years and to resell the plant and equipment in year 8 for $500,000. Finally, the project requires
an immediate investment in working capital of $400,000. Thereafter, working capital is forecasted to be 10% of sales in each of years 1
through 7. Year 1 sales of hog feed are expected to be $5.20 million, and thereafter, sales are forecasted to grow by 5% a year, slightly
faster than the inflation rate. Manufacturing…

The project will produce 1,000 cases of mineral water per year indefinitely, starting at Year 1. The Year-1 sales price will be 138 per case, and the Year-1 cost per case will be 105. The firm is taxed at a rate of 25%. Both prices and costs are expected to rise after Year 1 at a rate of 6% per year due to inflation. The firm uses only equity, and it has a cost of capital of 15%. Assume that cash flows consist only of after-tax profits because the spring has an indefinite life and will not be depreciated. a. What is the present value of future cash flows?
