Gina Ripley, president of Dearing Company, is considering the purchase of a computer-aided manufacturing system. The annual net cash benefits and savings associated with the system are described as follows: The system will cost 9,000,000 and last 10 years. The companys cost of capital is 12 percent. Required: 1. Calculate the payback period for the system. Assume that the company has a policy of only accepting projects with a payback of five years or less. Would the system be acquired? 2. Calculate the NPV and IRR for the project. Should the system be purchasedeven if it does not meet the payback criterion? 3. The project manager reviewed the projected cash flows and pointed out that two items had been missed. First, the system would have a salvage value, net of any tax effects, of 1,000,000 at the end of 10 years. Second, the increased quality and delivery performance would allow the company to increase its market share by 20 percent. This would produce an additional annual net benefit of 300,000. Recalculate the payback period, NPV, and IRR given this new information. (For the IRR computation, initially ignore salvage value.) Does the decision change? Suppose that the salvage value is only half what is projected. Does this make a difference in the outcome? Does salvage value have any real bearing on the companys decision?
Flanders Manufacturing is considering purchasing a new machine that will reduce variable costs per part produced by $0.15. The machine will increase fixed costs by $18,250 per year. The information they will use to consider these changes is shown here.
The Rodriguez Company is considering an average-risk investment in a mineral water spring project that has an initial after-tax cost of 170,000. The project will produce 1,000 cases of mineral water per year indefinitely, starting at Year 1. The Year-1 sales price will be 138 per case, and the Year-1 cost per case will be 105. The firm is taxed at a rate of 25%. Both prices and costs are expected to rise after Year 1 at a rate of 6% per year due to inflation. The firm uses only equity, and it has a cost of capital of 15%. Assume that cash flows consist only of after-tax profits because the spring has an indefinite life and will not be depreciated. a. What is the present value of future cash flows? (Hint: The project is a growing perpetuity, so you must use the constant growth formula to find its NPV.) What is the NPV? b. Suppose that the company had forgotten to include future inflation. What would they have incorrectly calculated as the projects NPV?
Advanced Modular Technology (AMT) makes energy cleaner, safer, more secure, and more efficient. It typically exhibits net annual revenues that increase over a fairly long period. In the long run, an AMT project may be profitable as measured by IRR, but its simple payback period may be unacceptable. Evaluate this AMT project using the IRR method when thecompany MARR is 15% per year and its maximum allowable payback period is three years. What is your recommendation?
Turik Electronics manufactures microprocessorbased soft starters that use thyristors for controlled reduced voltage during starting and stopping. The company is planning a production-line expansion that will cost $1.3 million. If the company uses a minimum attractive rate of return of 15% per year, what is the equivalent annual cost in years 1 through 5 of the investment?

A particular service can be purchased for $100 per unit. The same service can be provided by equipment that costs $400,000 today and has a salvage value of $250,000 after 10 years. Annual operating expenses will be $500 per year plus $2.00 per unit.a) If the estimates are correct, what will be the internal rate of return on the incremental investment if 400 units/year are produced.b) If the Attractive Minimum Rate of Return is 15% per year, what is the best alternative?
. Suppose we are asked to decide whether a new consumer product should be launched. Based on projected sales and costs, we expect that the cash flows over the five-year life of the project will be $2,000 in the first two years, $4,000 in the next two, and $5,000 in the last year. It will cost about $10,000 to begin production. We use a 10% discount rate to evaluate new products.  Calculate the NPV of the project.  Should we take the project?

Assume the following facts: A project will cost RM45 000 to develop. When the system becomes operational, after a one-year development period, operational costs will be RM9000 during each year of the system’s five year useful life. The system will produce benefits of RM30 000 in the first year of operation, and this figure will increase by 10% each year. When is the payback period for this project? Using the same facts, what is the ROI for this project? Using the same facts, what is the NPV for this project? (*Assuming 12% rate)
The Fence Company is setting up a new production line to produce top rails. The relevant data for two alternatives are shown below. Solve, a. Based on MARR of 8%, determine the annual rate of production for which the alternatives are equally economical. b. If it is estimated that production will be 300 top rails per year, which alternative is preferred and what will be the total annual cost?
Waste Management Inc. is analyzing an average-risk project, and the following data have been developed. Unit sales will be constant, but the sales price will increase with inflation. Fixed costs will also be constant, but variable costs will rise with inflation. The project should last for 3 years, and there will be no salvage value. This is just one project for the firm, so any losses can be used to offset gains on other firm projects. What is the project's expected NPV? IRR? Would you accept this project?
