Cash Flows and NPV (LO2) We project unit sales for a new household-use laser-guided cockroach search and destroy system as follows Year Unit Sales 1 93,000 2 105,000 3 128,000 4 134,000 5 87, 000 The new system will be priced to sell at $380 each. The cockroach eradicator project will require $1, 800, 000 in net working capital to start, and total net working capital will rise to 15% of the change in sales. The variable cost per unit is $265, and total fixed costs are $1, 200, 000 per year. The equipment necessary to begin production will cost a total of $24 million. This equipment is mostly industrial machinery and thus qualifies for CCA at a rate of 20%. In five years, this equipment will actually be worth about 20% of its cost. The relevant tax rate is 35%, and the required retum is 18%. Based on these preliminary estimates, what is the NPV of the project?
2 Net Present Value (NPV) Example 1 (Ross et al., 2023, pp. 299-300): We want to establish a new fertilizer business. The project costs $30,000 to launch. The project can generate cash revenues of $20,000 per year. The project will incur cash costs (including taxes) of $14,000 per year. The project will be terminated in 8 years and the project's assets can be sold for $2,000 at that time. A 15% discount rate is appropriate for this project. a. Should we undertake this project? b. If there are 1,000 shares of stock outstanding, what will be the effect on the price per share from taking the project?
Q.2 Krishna India owns an oil pipeline which will generate Rs. 12 crore of cash income inthe coming year. It has a very long life with virtually negligible operating cost. Thevolumeof shipped, however, will decline over time and, hence, cash flows willdecrease by 3% per year. The Discount rate is 12%.a. If the pipeline is used forever, what is the present value of its cash flows?b. If the pipeline is scraped after 25 years, what is the present value of its cashflows?
