Question 1 Aguilera Acoustics, Inc. (AAI), projects unit sales for a new seven-octave voice emulation implant as follows:     Year Unit Sales 1 8300 2 9200 3 10400 4 9800 5 8400   Production of the implants will require GH¢ 150,000 in net working capital to start and additional net working capital investments each year equal to 15 percent of the projected sales for that year. In the final year of the project, net working capital will decline to zero as the project is wound down. In other words, the investment in working capital is to be completely recovered by the end of the project’s life. Total fixed costs are GH¢ 240,000 per year, variable production costs are GH¢ 190 per unit, and the units are priced at GH¢ 345 each. The equipment needed to begin production has an installed cost of GH¢ 2,300,000. Because the implants are intended for professional singers, this equipment depreciated using the straight-line basis. In five years, this equipment…

A3 9b You are considering a project that will supply an automobile production facility with 35,000 tonnes of machine screws annually for five years. To get the project started, you will need an initial investment of $1,500,000 in threading equipment. The project will last for five years. The accounting department estimates that annual fixed costs will be $300,000 and that variable costs should be $200 per tonne. The CCA rate for threading equipment is 20%. Accounting estimates a salvage value of $500,000 after costs of dismantling. The marketing department estimates that the auto makers will accept the contract at a selling price of $250 per tonne. The engineering department estimates you will need an initial net working capital investment of $450,000. You require a 15% return and face a marginal tax rate of 38% on this project. b.       Suppose you believe that the accounting department’s initial cost and salvage projections are accurate only to within ±15%; the marketing department’s…

Question 7 A construction company is deciding if they should make a new building bronze, silver, or gold LEED-certified, or not at all. Regardless of the level of certification, this new building will generate extra annual revenues of $40,000 starting at the end of the first year due to planned business operation. In terms of operational cost, each option offers different levels of annual energy savings (can be taken as annual incomes), but also different operation and maintenance costs. Please also note that a building with no certification will have no energy savings, but full energy costs. Further, the government offers different tax credits depending on the level of environmental impact. Please note that all annual costs and savings begin at the end of year 3 and extend until the end of the operation life. The buildings are intended to operate for 20 years, and the company has a minimum attractive rate of return (MARR) of 5%. The following data is available for each option: Annual…

Question 1 Spacevoyage Inc. is considering the installation of a new experimental laboratory which requires a key equipment costing $5,000,000. It is expected that the equipment will generate important experimental material worth $2,000,000 for each of the next 5 years. In the 6th year, the equipment will need an upgrade costing $2,500,000. Required return for this project is 15%. a) Which capital budgeting method between NPV and IRR will be most suitable for arriving at a decision on whether or not to get the equipment installed? Briefly explain your reasons. (50-75 words)   b) Should the new equipment be installed? Support your answer with relevant computation.     Question 2  While computing the cost of equity using the formula , rs=D1P0+grs=D1P0+g, we do not make any adjustment to express the cost of equity on an after-tax basis whereas while computing the cost of debt, a tax adjustment is required to arrive at after-tax cost of debt. Why is this so? Explain briefly. (75-150 words)

PROBLEM 2 fol Acoustics, Inc. (AA) projects unit sales for a new seven-octave voice emulation implantas follows: Year 1 2 3 4 5 Production of the implants will require $2,350,000 in net working capital to start and additional net working capital investments each year equal to 25 percent of the projected sales increase for the following year. Total fixed costs are $1,490,000 per year, variable production costs are $239 per unit, and the units are priced at $359 each. The equipment needed to begin production has an installed cost of $30,000,000. Because the implants are intended for professional singers, this equipment is considered industrial machinery and thus qualifies as seven-year MACRS (MACRS Table) property. In five years, this equipment can be sold for about 20 percent of its acquisition cost. AAI is in the 40 percent marginal tax bracket and has a required return on all its projects of 16 percent. Unit Sales 115,000 134,000 122,000 105,000 91,000 What are operating cash flows,…

QUESTION 13 A project requires an initial investment in equipment of $81,000 and then requires an initial investment in working capital of $19,000 (at t = 0). You expect the project to produce sales revenue of $100,000 per year for three years. You estimate manufacturing costs at 60% of revenues. (Assume all revenues and costs occur at year-end, i.e., t-1, t-2, and t= 3.) The equipment depreciates using straight-line depreciation over three years. At the end of the project, the firm can sell the equipment for $20,000 and recover the investment in net working capital. The corporate tax rate is 30% and the cost of capital is 15%. Calculate the NPV of the project: O $3,840. $4,122.46. $-2,735. $7,342.

Question 1 A construction firm must obtain a bulldozer to work on a long-term project. There are two options available to the firm - using a loan to purchase the bulldozer for $825,000 and leasing it from the equipment dealer. If the firm decides to purchase, it can finance the entire cost through a commercial bank for 8 years at an interest rate of 7.5% compounded annually. At the end of eight years, the firm will sell the bulldozer for a salvage value of $80,000. If the firm decides to lease, it will pay the equipment dealer an up-front fee equal to 5% of the purchase price, followed by eight annual payments of $135,000. At the end of the lease, the firm will return the equipment to the dealer. The firm's discount rate is 10%. a) Build an Excel worksheet to model the two options and help the firm decide which to choose. You can ignore depreciation or tax effects in your analysis (i.e., evaluate the options simply based on their respective cash flows). b) Assuming that the equipment…
