- The J.R. Ryland Computer Company is considering a plant expansion to enable the company to begin production of a new computer product. The companys president must determine whether to make the expansion a medium- or large-scale project. Demand for the new product is uncertain, which for planning purposes may be low demand, medium demand, or high demand. The probability estimates for demand are 0.20, 0.50, and 0.30, respectively. Letting x and y indicate the annual profit in thousands of dollars, the firms planners developed the following profit forecasts for the medium-and large-scale expansion projects. a. Compute the expected value for the profit associated with the two expansion alternatives. Which decision is preferred for the objective of maximizing the expected profit? b. Compute the variance for the profit associated with the two expansion alternatives. Which decision is preferred for the objective of minimizing the risk or uncertainty?Hemmingway, Inc. is considering a $5 million research and development (R&D) project. Profit projections appear promising, but Hemmingway’s president is concerned because the probability that the R&D project will be successful is only 0.50. Furthermore, the president knows that even if the project is successful, it will require that the company build a new production facility at a cost of $20 million in order to manufacture the product. If the facility is built, uncertainty remains about the demand and thus uncertainty about the profit that will be realized. Another option is that if the R&D project is successful, the company could sell the rights to the product for an estimated $25 million. Under this option, the company would not build the $20 million production facility. The decision tree follows. The profit projection for each outcome is shown at the end of the branches. For example, the revenue projection for the high demand outcome is $59 million. However, the cost of the R&D project ($5 million) and the cost of the production facility ($20 million) show the profit of this outcome to be $59 – $5 – $20 = $34 million. Branch probabilities are also shown for the chance events. Analyze the decision tree to determine whether the company should undertake the R&D project. If it does, and if the R&D project is successful, what should the company do? What is the expected value of your strategy? What must the selling price be for the company to consider selling the rights to the product? Develop a risk profile for the optimal strategy.OptiLux is considering investing in an automated manufacturing system. The system requires an initial investment of $3.8 million, has a 20-year life, and will have zero salvage value. If the system is implemented, the company will save $540,000 per year in direct labor costs. The company requires a 12% return from its investments. (PV of $1, FV of $1, PVA of $1, and FVA of $1) (Use appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided.)a. Compute the proposed investment’s net present value.b. Using the answer from part a, is the investment’s internal rate of return higher or lower than 12%? Hint: It is not necessary to compute IRR to answer this question.
- A firm evaluates all its projects by applying the IRR rule. the current proposed project has a cash flow of negative 37,048 dollars, 16,850 15,700 and 19,300 for years zero to three, respectfully. The required return is 18%. what is the project IRR? should the products be accepted or rejected?Wayne Company is considering a long-term investment project called ZIP. ZIP will require an investment of $125,600. It will have a useful life of 4 years and no salvage value. Annual cash inflows would increase by $80,500, and annual cash outflows would increase by $42,000. The company’s required rate of return is 8%. Click here to view PV table.Calculate the net present value on this project. (If the net present value is negative, use either a negative sign preceding the number eg -45 or parentheses eg (45). Round present value answer to 0 decimal places, e.g. 125. For calculation purposes, use 5 decimal places as displayed in the factor table provided.) Net present value ________? Whether this project should be accepted? The project should be ACCEPTED OR DECLINED???? .You are considering an investment project with the following financial information: Required investment = $500,000 Project life = 5 years Salvage value = $50,000 Depreciation method = straight-line deprecation (no half-year convention) Unit price = $40 Unit variable cost = $18 Fixed annual cost = $230,000 Annual sales volume = 100,000 units Tax rate = 35% MARR = 15% The company is concerned about the price estimate they have used to calculate the rate of return. Using sensitivity analysis, how much can the price vary to still break-even? The company believes that their estimates for unit price, demand, variable cost, fixed cost, and salvage value are accurate to +/- 10%. Using scenario analysis compare the base case to the best-case and worst-case scenarios.
- I need solutions for questions d, e, f, g, h and i. Thanks d. Are this project’s cash flows likely to be positively or negatively correlated withreturns on Cory’s other projects and with the economy, and should this matter in youranalysis? Explain.e. Unrelated to the new product, Cory is analyzing two mutually exclusive machines thatwill upgrade its manufacturing plant. These machines are considered average-riskprojects, so management will evaluate them at the firm’s 10% WACC. Machine Xhas a life of 4 years, while Machine Y has a life of 2 years. The cost of each machineis $60,000; however, Machine X provides after-tax cash flows of $25,000 per year for4 years and Machine Y provides after-tax cash flows of $42,000 per year for 2 years. Themanufacturing plant is very successful, so the machines will be repurchased at the endof each machine’s useful life. In other words, the machines are “repeatable” projects.1. Using the replacement chain method, what is the NPV of the better machine?2.…e.

- Blue Llama Mining Company is analyzing a project that requires an initial investment of $3,225,000. The project’s expected cash flows are: Year Cash Flow Year 1 $325,000 Year 2 –100,000 Year 3 425,000 Year 4 500,000 1. Blue Llama Mining Company’s WACC is 7%, and the project has the same risk as the firm’s average project. Calculate this project’s modified internal rate of return (MIRR): 17.53% -20.06% 22.14% 16.61% 2. If Blue Llama Mining Company’s managers select projects based on the MIRR criterion, they should accept or reject this independent project. 3. Which of the following statements about the relationship between the IRR and the MIRR is correct? A typical firm’s IRR will be equal to its MIRR. A typical firm’s IRR will be less than its MIRR. A typical firm’s IRR will be greater than its MIRR.Your company is planning to add a piece of equipment with 7 years of expected life for its production line.
