Method A; The initial investment cost will be 80,000 TL and a scrap yield of 15,000 TL after 3 years. Operation cost is 30,000 TL in the first year and increases by 4,000 TL every year. Method B; The initial investment cost will be 120,000 TL and a scrap yield of 40,000 TL after 3 years. Operation cost increases by 8,000 TL in the first year and by 6,500 TL each year. In case the interest rate is 12% per year, determine which method is more economically suitable by using the Present Value Analysis (PW) method

Andronicus Corporation has the following jumbled information about an investment proposal: Revenues in each of years 1–3 = $30,000 Year 0 initial investment = $50,000 Inventory level = $15,000 in year 1, $16,500 in year 2, and $10,000 in year 3 Production costs = $10,000 in each of years 1–3 Salvage value = $13,000 in year 4 Depreciation = 100% immediate bonus depreciation Tax rate = 21% Customers pay with a 6-month lag Draw up a set of cash flow forecasts as in Table 6.4. If the cost of capital is 8%, what is the project’s NPV? Assume that, if the project generates losses, those losses can be used to offset profits elsewhere in the business.
Andronicus Corporation (AC) has the following jumbled information about an investment proposal: Revenues in each of years 1–4 = $37,000 Year 0 initial investment = $57,000 Inventory level = $18,500 in year 1, $20,700 in year 2, and $13,500 in year 3 Production costs = $12,100 in each of years 1–4 Salvage value = $13,700 in year 4 Depreciation = 100% immediate bonus depreciation Tax rate = 21% There is an additional 6-month lag for all cash flows after year 0. For example, customers pay consistently with a 6-month lag, as AC does for production costs, taxes, etc. Draw up a set of cash flow forecasts as in Table 6.4. If the cost of capital is 10%, what is the project’s NPV? Assume that, if the project generates losses, those losses can be used to offset profits for tax purposes elsewhere in the business.

ESTIMATING VARIABLE CONSIDERATION AJD BUILDERS CONSTRUCTION COMPANY ENTERS INTO A CONTRACT WITH A CUSTOMER TO BUILD A 50 KILOMETERS ROAD TO P100,000,000 WITH A PERFORMANCE BONUS OF P60,000,000 THAT WILL BE PAID BASED ON THE TIMING OF COMPLETION. THE AMOUNT OF THE PERFORMANCE BONUS DECREASES BY 10% PER WEEK FOR EVERY WEEK BEYOND THE AGREED-UPON COMPLETION DATE. THE CONTRACT REQUIREMENTS ARE SIMILAR TO CONTRACTS THAT AJD BUILDERS HAS PERFORMED PREVIOUSLY, AND MANAGEMENT BELIEVES THAT SUCH EXPERIENCE IS PREDICTIVE FOR THIS CONTRACT. MANAGEMENT ESTIMATES THAT THERE IS A 60% PROBABILITY THAT THE CONTRACT WILL BE COMPLETED BY THE AGREED UPON COMPLETION DATE, A 30% PROBABILITY THAT IT WILL BE COMPLETED ONE WEEK LATE, AND ONLY A 10% PROBABILITY THAT IT WILL BE COMPLETED TWO WEEKS LATE. REQUIRED: DETERMINE THE PROBABILITY-WEIGHTED AMOUNT FOR THE MANAGEMENT TO DETERMINE THE TRANSACTION PRICE.
