Question
Down Under stores are considering an investment with an intial cost of $236,00. In Year 4, the project will require an additional investment and finally, the project will be shut down in Year 7. The annual cash flows for Years 1 - 7 are projected as $64,000, $87,000 $91,000, -$48,000, $122,000, $154,000, and -$30,000. If all negative cash flows are moved to Time 0 using a discount rate of 13%, what is the project's modified

- I want you to show and explain the explanation below. The answer is correct but i can't understand how it come up with the right answer. Attached pic below is the problem The annual estimated cash flow is $140,000. The salvage value will be 12% of the initial price after 5 years. The discount rate (r) is 18% Let us assume the initial price of the doughnut machine be X.

The products require different specialized machines, each costing $1.4million. Each machine has a five-year life and zero residual value. The two products have different patterns of predicted net cash inflows: Play will consider making capital investments only if the payback period of the project is less than 3.5 years and the ARR exceeds 8%.

Management is estimating the machine will generate cash inflows of $396,000 for two years and $300,000 for the following seven years. If management requires a minimum 8 percent rate of return, should the firm purchase this particular machine? Why or why not? a) no; because the IRR is .68 percent b) no; because the IRR is 7.57 percent c) The answer cannot be determined as there are multiple IRRs d) yes; because the IRR is 10.38 percent e) yes; because the IRR is 8.47 percentarrow_forward

- There are two projects under consideration by the Rainbow factory. Each of the projects will require an initial investment of $35,000 and is expected to generate the following cash flows: First Year Second Year Third Year Total Alpha Project $32,500 $23,000 $5,500 $61,000 Beta Project 8,000 23,000 28,000 59,000 (Click here to see present value and future value tables) https://openstax.org/books/principles-managerial-accounting/pages/time-value-of-money A.

The facility will have a three-year useful life, and it will not have any salvage value at the end of the project’s life. If demand is strong, the facility will be able to generate annual cash flows of $250,000, but if demand turns out to be weak, the facility will generate annual cash flows of only $120,000. Blur Corp. thinks that there is a 50% chance that demand will be strong and a 50% chance that demand will be weak. If the company uses a project cost of capital of 13%, what will be the expected net present value (NPV) of this project? -$66,346 -$63,187 -$34,753 -$44,231 Blur Corp. could spend $510,000 to build the facility. Spending the additional $10,000 on the facility will allow the company to switch the products they produce in the facility after the first year of operations if demand turns out to be weak in year 1.
