CH5 #10 A company is considering two alternative marketing strategies for a new product. Introducing the product will require an outlay of $15,000. With a low price, the product will generate cash proceeds of $10,000 per year and will have a life of two years. With a high price, the product will generate cash proceeds of $18,000 but will have a life of only one year. The hurdle rate for this project is 0.05.
Which marketing strategy should be accepted?
use excel/show all excel formulas answering the following
LO3 20. Sensitivity Analysis We are evaluating a project that costs $1.68 million, has a six-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 90,000 units per year. Price per unit is $37.95, variable cost per unit is $23.20, and fixed costs are $815,000 per year. The tax rate is 21 percent, and we require a return of 11 percent on this project. a. Calculate the base-case cash flow and NPV. What is the sensitivity of NPV to changes in the sales figure? Explain what your answer tells you about a 500-unit decrease in projected sales. b. What is the sensitivity of OCF to changes in the variable cost figure? Explain what your answer tells you about a $1 decrease in estimated variable costs.
LO3 21. Scenario Analysis In the previous problem, suppose the projections given for price, quantity, variable costs, and fixed costs are all accurate to…
Ch 7. Decision Trees. For questions 12 and 13, please use the following information:
Ang Electronics, Inc., has developed a new DVDR. If the DVDR is successful, the present value of the payoff (when the product is brought to market) is $28.6 million. If the DVDR fails, the present value of the payoff is $10.2 million. If the product goes directly to market, there is a 40 percent chance of success. Alternatively, the company can delay the launch by one year and spend $1.42 million to test market the DVDR. Test marketing would allow the firm to improve the product and increase the probability of success to 70 percent. The appropriate discount rate is 11 percent.
Calculate the NPV of test marketing before going to market.

He has already spent $2 billion on fixed costs. With 30% probability, the metaverse will be a big success, in which case he can choose whether to spend $5 billion on engineering to earn revenues of $20 billion. (If he chooses not to spend all of that amount of engineering, then his revenue from the metaverse will be $0.) With 70% probability, the metaverse will not be popular, in which case Mark will choose whether to spend $5 billion on engineering in order to receive $3 billion in revenue. Assuming that Mark maximizes profit, what is the expected value of his metaverse project?
