Perform a financial analysis for a project. Assume that the projected costs and benefits for this project are spread over four years as follows: Estimated costs are $300,000 in Year 1 and $ 75,000 each year in Years 2, 3, and 4. Estimated benefits are $0 in Year 1 and $110,000 each year in Years 2, 3, and 4. Use a 6 percent discount rate, and round the discount factors to two decimal places. What is the Return on Investment (ROI)? (Keep your answer in two decimal places. e.g. 46.59. Do not enter % symbol.)
The following table presents sales forecasts for Golden Gelt Giftware. The unit price is $40. The unit cost of the giftware is $25. Year Unit Sales 1 22,000 2 30,000 3 14,000 4 5,000 Thereafter 0 It is expected that net working capital will amount to 20% of sales in the following year. For example, the store will need an initial (Year 0) investment in working capital of 0.20 × 22,000 × $40 = $176,000. Plant and equipment necessary to establish the giftware business will require an additional investment of $200,000. This investment will be depreciated using MACRS and a 3-year life. After 4 years, the equipment will have an economic and book value of zero. The firm’s tax rate is 30%. The discount rate is 20%. Use the MACRS depreciation schedule. a. What is the net present value of the project? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to the nearest whole dollar amount.)
If a garden center is considering the purchase of a new tractor with an initial investment cost of $127,000, and the center expects a return of $31,000 in year one, $21,000 in years two and three, $15,000 in years four and five, and $12,000 in year six and beyond, what is the payback period? ______ years
You want to start an organic garlic farm. The farm costs $210,000, to be paid in full immediately. Year 1 cash inflow will be $25,000, after which the inflows are expected to grow at a 5% annual rate until the end of year 5 when you anticipate selling the farm for $260,000 (at the end of year 5 you get both the cash inflow from operations and from selling the farm). What is the IRR of your garlic farm investment? Round to the tenth of a percent (e.g. 5.6%=5.6). [Hint: You'll want to solve this in Excel using the IRR function or Goal Seek. Make sure the IRR cell is set to show decimals.]
A process for producing the mosquito repellant Deet has an initial investment of $200,000 with annual costs of $50,000. Income is expected to be $90,000 per year.

(b) What is the annual breakeven production quantity for both payback periods (determined above) if net profit, that is, income minus cost, is $10 per gallon?
