Presto Pizza is considering replacing one of its pizza ovens with a new model that would increase capacity and reduce operating costs compared to the old ovens. The new oven costs $50,000 today (at t  = 0) and can be sold in 5 years for $10,000 (at t = 5). The old oven can be sold today for $5,000 and has a zero ($0) residual salvage in 5 years. Independent Consultants estimate that Presto Pizza’s annual sales less operating expenses ( not including taxes, depreciation, or adjustments for net working capital) will increase from currently $50,000/year to $75,000/year (at t = 1 to t = 5). They also estimate that net working capital will increase by $10,000 today (at t = 0) to meet increased sales and will be recaptured completely at the end of year 5 (at t = 5). The pizza oven belongs to asset class 43 with a CCA rate of 30%. Assume that Presto Pizza has a required rate of return of 10% and a corporate tax rate of 40%. 1 Extra Problem 2
What is the initial cash flow of this project today (i.e., the total cash flow at t = 0; excluding any CCA tax shields)? a) -$35,000 b) -$40,000 c) -$45,000 d) -$50,000 e) -$55,000 2 Questions
What is the total cash flow of this project in year 2 (at t = 2; excluding any CCA tax shields)? a) $10,000 b) $13,636 c) $15,000 d) $25,000 e) $50,000 3 Questions

What is the last year’s total cash flow of this project (at t = 5; excluding any CCA tax shields)? a) $10,000 b) $15,000 c) $25,000 d) $35,000 e) $45,000 4 Questions
What is the CCA tax shield in year 1 (at t = 1)? a) $2,455 b) $8,100 c) $3,000 d) $5,400 e) $6,750 5 Questions
Independent Consultants charge $5,000 for their report. Luigi, the CFO of Presto Pizza includes the $5,000 as a cash outflow in the calculation of the initial cash flow at t = 0. Do you agree? a) Yes, the $5,000 is an opportunity cost and need to be considered. b) No, the $5,000 is a sunk cost. c) Yes, the $5,000 is part of the initial investment outlays. d) No, the $5,000 should be included in the last year’s total cash flow. e) No, the $5,000 need to be capitalized first before it can be deducted as a cash outflow. 6 Questions

Suppose the CCA rate of asset class 43 (to which the pizza oven belongs) would increase from originally 30% to 40%. What would be the effect on the project’s NPV? a) The NPV of the project would not change. b) The NPV would increase because of higher CCA tax shields. c) The NPV would decline because of greater annual CCA deductions. d) The NPV would decline because of lower CCA tax shields. e) The NPV would increase because the initial investment would be lower. 7 Questions
Suppose the new pizza oven will be installed in a vacant storage room that is owned by Presto Pizza but currently not used by Presto Pizza. The storage room could be rented out to the neighboring coffee shop Dark Roast for five years for a total pre-tax lease payment of $25,000 due in one year (at t = 1). How much would the NPV of the project change based on this new information? a) -$15,000 b) -$22,727 c) -9,091 d) -13,636 e) -$25,000 8 Questions
