Future value: CelebNav, Inc., had sales last year of $700,000, and the analysts are predicting strong future performance for the start-up, with sales growing 20 percent a year for the next three years. After that, the sales should grow 11 percent per year for two years, at which time the owners are planning to sell the company. What are the projected sales for the last year before the sale?

A business industry has a new product whose sales are expected to be 1.2, 3.5, 7, 5, 3 million units per year over the next 5 years. Production, distribution, and overhead costs are stable at $120 per unit. The price will be $200 per unit for the first two years, and then $180, $160 and $140 for the next three years. The remaining R&D and production costs are $300 million. If the interest rate is 15%, determine whether this business will profit using present worth method. What is the future worth? *

Consider a company that is projected to generate revenues of $104 million next year. Analysts expect revenues to grow at a 4.6% annual rate for the following two years (until the end of year 3) and then at a stable rate of 2.5% in perpetuity. If the company is expected to have a gross margin of 75%, operating margin of 35%, net margin of 25%, tax rate of 16.4%, and reinvestment rate of 34%, what is its expected free cash in four years from today? Answer in millions, rounded to one decimal place
The demand for a product during the next ten years will be such that revenues will be $100,000 the first year and will increase by $10,000 each year thereafter. If inflation is assumed to be 6% per yuear and the company uses 10% in its economic studies, what is the present worth of the revenues expressed in present dollars?
Employees at JPGR Inc have been busy evaluating a potential new $9 million investment for their firm that would last 9 years. The operations and inventory managers believe that the firm would not need to invest now in net working capital (NWC), but expect that expenses will increase by $5.65 million per year, starting a year from now. The marketing team believes that sales will vary year to year, but equate to a $7.45 million annuity, starting a year from now. The investment assets will be depreciated to zero over the life of the project, but should yield scrap value of $550,000. The firm faces a 30% tax rate and the firm would require a return of 12.5% APR compounded annually on this project. (A) What is the NPV of the project? (B) Based on value reached in part (A), should the firm accept or reject the project? (C) By what percent would projected sales have to rise or fall to reverse the above decision?

We are examining a new project. We expect to sell 6,000 units per year at $74 net cash flow apiece for the next 10 years. In other words, the annual cash flow is projected to be $74 × 6,000 = $444,000. The relevant discount rate is 18 percent, and the initial investment required is $1,710,000. After the first year, the project can be dismantled and sold for $1,540,000. Suppose you think it is likely that expected sales will be revised upward to 9,000 units if the first year is a success and revised downward to 4,600 units if the first year is not a success. a. If success and failure are equally likely, what is the NPV of the project? Consider the possibility of abandonment in answering. (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.) b. What is the value of the option to abandon?

We are examining a new project. We expect to sell 6,500 units per year at $43 net cash flow apiece for the next 10 years. In other words, the annual operating cash flow is projected to be $43 × 6,500 = $279,500. The relevant discount rate is 16 percent, and the initial investment required is $980,000. After the first year, the project can be dismantled and sold for $810,000. Suppose you think it is likely that expected sales will be revised upward to 9,100 units if the first year is a success and revised downward to 3,700 units if the first year is not a success. a.

An office building is currently for sale, and you are thinking of purchasing it. From your extensive market research and knowledge, you know the net operating income for this year is $315,000. You expect the net operating income will grow by 7% in the first five years, 5% in the subsequent five years, and 3.5% for every year after. If you are considering an 18-year investment window and desire a 16% rate of return, how much should you pay for the building?
