Joey is one of several winners who shared a lottery ticket. There are three plans offered to receive the after-tax proceeds.Plan 1: $100,000 nowPlan 2: $15,000 per year for 8 years beginning 1 year from now. Total is$120,000.Plan 3: $45,000 now, another $45,000 four years from now, and a final$45,000 eight years from now. Total is $135,000.Joey, a quite conservative person financially, plans to invest all of the proceeds as he receives them. He expects to make a real return of 6% per year. Use the 8-year time frame and an average inflation of 4% per year to determine which plan provides the best deal.
Ten years ago, Johnson Recovery purchased a wrecker for $330, 000 to move disabled 18-wheelers. He received a salvage value of $25, 000 after 10 years of use. During this 10-year period, his average annual revenue totaled $60, 000. a) Did he recover his investment at 12% per year return? In other words, does the Annual Equivalent Value of the benefits exceed the Capital Recovery cost at an interest rate of 12%? b) Suppose Johnson moves, on average, 250 disabled 18-wheelers each year. What is his average equivalent benefit/cost per vehicle moved? c) Now, incorporate annual operating and maintenance costs into your analysis. If the annual O&M cost was $5, 000 the first year and increased by a constant 10% per year, what is the annual equivalent worth at 12% per year?
Part 1Please calculate the payback period, IRR, MIRR, NPV, and PI for the following two mutuallyexclusive projects. The required rate of return is 15% and the target payback is 4 years.Explain which project is preferable under each of the four capital budgeting methodsmentioned above: Cash flows for two mutually exclusive projects Year Investment A Investment B 0 -$5,000,000 -5,000,000 1 $1,500,000 $1,250,000 2 $1,500,000 $1,250,000 3 $1,500,000 $1,250,000 4 $1,500,000 $1,250,000 5 $1,500,000 $1,250,000 6 $1,500,000 $1,250,000 7 $2,000,000 $1,250,000 8 0 $1,600,000 Part 2 Please study the following capital budgeting project and then provide explanations for thequestions outlined below:You have been hired as a consultant for Pristine Urban-Tech Zither, Inc.

An investment project costs $100,000. ll is expected to have an annual net cash flow of $40,000 for 5 years. What is the project's payback period?(a) 2.5 years(b) 3.5 year(c) 4.5 years(d) 5 years
The company uses a 10% discount rate and the total-cost approach to capital budgeting analysis. The working capital required under the new system would be released for use elsewhere at the conclusion of the project. Both alternatives are expected to have a useful life of ten years.1. The net present value of the overhaul alternative (rounded to the nearest hundred pesos) is: P(750,300) P(987,400) P(725,800) P(975,800) 2. The net present value of the new system alternative (rounded to the nearest hundred pesos) is: P(552,900) P(758,400) P(862,900) P(987,400)
Net present value (NPV) of the project =Single payoff x PVIAF (10.20%, 9 years) - initial outlay = $6,947 x 0.42340 - $2,182 = $759.39 What's the equation for the bolded item?
Problem 1 (What is the solution for this?) A corporation sold an issue of 20-year bonds, having a total face value of 10,000,000 Php for 9,500,000 Php. The bonds bear interest at 16%, payable semiannually. The company wishes to establish a sinking fund for retiring the bond issue and will make semiannual deposits that will earn 12%, compounded semiannually. Compute the annual cost for interest and redemption of these bonds. Ans should be: 1,730,000
MARR = 8%. Your consultancy business signs on with a new client. The client pays you $5000 up front as deposit toward future work. One year later the client makes another payment of $5000. The year after that you invest $16,000 into the project. The following year, in the third year, the client pays you the remaining balance of $5388. The project's precise ERR is within 0.5% of a) 12% b) 13% c) 4% d) 15% e) None of the above
A project has an initial cost of $65,000, expected net cash inflows of $11,000 per year for 12 years, and a cost of capital of 11%. What is the project's MIRR? (Hint: Begin by constructing a time line.) Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to two decimal places.
A pharmaceutical company has spent $500 million to date working on a blood pressure treatment. It has to decide whether to spend another $500 million today to get final approval from the FDA in two years. Once approved, expected profits will be $50 million per year for the foreseeable future. The firm’s cost of capital is 5%. -Should the firm proceed? (Hint: use the perpetuity formula used to value projects found in the readings to find the value of the profit stream that starts in two years, and then discount that.)
A piece of new equipment has been proposed by engineers to increase theproductivity of a certain manual welding operation. The investment cost is$25,000, and the equipment will have a market value of $5,000 at the endof a study period of five years. Increased productivity attributable to theequipment will amount to $8,000 per year after extra operating costs havebeen subtracted from the revenue generated by the additional production.A cash-flow diagram for this investment opportunity is given below. If thefirm’s MARR is 20% per year, is this proposal a sound one? Use the PWmethod.
It is required to have a fixed investment of Php 10,000,000.00 to a proposed Ice plant, and an estimated working capital of Php 2,000,000.00. The annual depreciation is estimated to be 10% of fixed investment. Determine the rate of return on the total investment and the payout period if the annual profit is Php 2,500,000.00 [ pls include graph and diagram if necessary. Thank you. ]
