What is the project's NPV?arrow_forwardWe are evaluating a project that costs $735, 200, has an eight year life, and has no salvage value. Assume that depreciation is straight - line to zero over the life of the project. Sales are projected at 80, 000 units per year. Price per unit is $48, variable cost per unit is $33, and fixed costs are $730, 000 per year. The tax rate is 22 percent, and we require a return of 12 percent on this project. Suppose the projections given for price, quantity, variable costs, and fixed costs are all accurate to within \pm 15 percent. Calculate the best - case and worst case NPV figures.
