- Consider a project that has an up-front cost of $100. In its first year it earns $30, and then in each subsequent year it earns an additional $10, so that in its second year it earns $40, the following year it earns $50, etc. The project lasts for 8 years so that in the final year its revenue is $100. The project is expected to repeat indefinitely. It has a MARR=13%. The NPW is within $5 of a)601 b)611 c)621 d)631 e)641 f) noneRefer to the associated graph. Identify when the WACC approach to project acceptability agrees with the CAPM approach. When do recommendations of the two approaches differ? Explain whyBurlington Motor Carriers, a trucking company, is considering the installation of a two-way mobile satellite messaging service on its 2,000 trucks. From tests done last year on 120 trucks, the company found that satellite messaging could cut 60% of its $5 million bill for long-distance communications with truck drivers. More importantly, the drivers who used this system reduced the number of "deadhead" miles-those driven without paying loads-by 0.5%. Applying that improvement to all 230 million miles covered by the Burlington fleet each year would produce an extra $1.25 million in savings. Equipping all 2,000 trucks with the satellite hookup will require an investment of $8 million and the construction of a message-relaying system costing $2 million. The equipment and onboard devices will have a service life of eight years and negligible salvage value; they will be depreciated under the five-year MACRS class. Burlington's marginal tax rate is about 38%, and its required minimum…

The net benefits of ecosystem goods and services have been valued over the next four years at R6000, R10 000, R14 000 and R22 000 respectively. The immediate cost of preserving the forest is R23 500. Assume that MWTP = 90 - 3Q and MC = 10 + 2Q. The discount rate is 7%.
