Question
Maram & Company are manufacturers of furniture.
They are contemplating the introduction of a new line which will
require investment of Rs. 20 million in plant and machinery, which
would have to be incurred by the end of December 2016. Production,
and the resultant revenue and costs will start immediately.
In the first year, revenue is expected to be Rs. 10 million followed by
an increase of 30% each year for the next 2 years, and then decline by
20% each year for the next 2 years, after which the line will be
discontinued.
There is a fixed cost of Rs. 2 million each year and the variable cost of
production comes to 60% of sales revenue.
Depreciation is straight line over the 5 year period.
The value of plant and machinery at the end of 5 years can be assumed
to be zero.
Maram will have to invest in working capital equal to 20% of sales
revenue at the beginning of each year.
You may assume that the entire working capital investment is
recovered at the end of the project.
The applicable tax rate for Maram is 33%.
Maram has a Weighted Average Cost of Capital of 10%.
(Assume that all cash flows occur at the end of each year for
convenience.)
