A quantity of steel in the amount of $423,000.0 is needed for a project, payment due (from contractor to steel fabricator) at the project begin date. The steel is expected to be erected in Month 2 and Month 3, with billing at the end of these months and subsequent payment from the owner (to the contractor) at the end of Month 3 and Month 4. Assume half the the payment occurs at the end of Month 3 and the other half at the end of Month 4. Using an annual interest rate of 18%, which is a monthly interest rate of 1.5%, to finance the purchase with a short-term line of credit loan, determine the total interest accumulated for this steel purchase until payment is received (from the owner).

Concrete Company enters into a contract with a customer to build a warehouse for $200,000, with a performance bonus of $40,000 that will be paid based on the timing of completion. The performance bonus will be paid fully if completed by the agree-upon date. The performance bonus decreases by $10,000 per week for every week beyond the agreed-upon completion date. Management estimates that there is a 55% probability that he will complete the project on time, a 30% probability that it will be completed 1 week late, and a 15% probability that it will be completed 2 weeks late. (1). Determine the transaction price that Concrete should compute for this agreement. (2). Assuming that Concrete believes that the probability for completing the project on time is 90% and otherwise it will be finished 1 week late. Determine the transaction price.

A project requires an initial investment in equipment of $99,000 and then requires an initial investment in working capital of $16,000 (at t = 0). You expect the project to produce sales revenue of $135,000 per year for three years. You estimate manufacturing costs at 60 percent 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 $13,300 and recover the investment in net working capital. The corporate tax rate is 21 percent and the cost of capital is 15 percent. Calculate the NPV of the project. Multiple Choice $4,985 $13,879 −$3,880 $8,487
