- Net Present Value Talmage Inc. has just completed development of a new printer. The new product is expected to produce annual revenues of 2,700,000. Producing the printer requires an investment in new equipment costing 2,880,000. The printer has a projected life cycle of 5 years. After 5 years, the equipment can be sold for 360,000. Working capital is also expected to increase by 360,000, which Talmage will recover by the end of the new products life cycle. Annual cash operating expenses are estimated at 1,620,000. The required rate of return is 8%. Required: Prepare a schedule of the projected annual cash flows. Calculate the NPV using only discount factors from Exhibit 12B.1 (p. 670). Calculate the NPV using discount factors from both Exhibits 12B.1 and 12B.2 (p. 671).arrow_forwardNet present value method for a service company Coast-to-Coast Inc. is considering the purchase of an additional delivery vehicle for 70,000 on January 1, 20Y1. The truck is expected to have a five-year life with an expected residual value of 15,000 at the end of five years. The expected additional revenues from the added delivery capacity are anticipated to be 65,000 per year for each of the next five years. A driver will cost 40,000 in 20Y1, with an expected annual salary increase of 2,000 for each year thereafter. The annual operating costs for the truck are estimated to be 6,000 per year. a. Determine the expected annual net cash flows from the delivery truck investment for 20Y120Y5. b. Compute the net present value of the investment, assuming that the minimum desired rate of return is 12%. Use the present value table appearing in Exhibit 2 of this chapter. c. Is the additional truck a good investment based on your analysis? Explain.arrow_forwardAverage rate of returncost savings Maui Fabricators Inc. is considering an investment in equipment that will replace direct labor. The equipment has a cost of 125,000 with a 15,000 residual value and an eight-year life. The equipment will replace one employee who has an average wage of 28,000 per year. In addition, the equipment will have operating and energy costs of 5,150 per year. Determine the average rate of return on the equipment, giving effect to straight-line depreciation on the investment.arrow_forward

The phone is expected to generate additional annual sales of 10,000 units at 300 per unit. The equipment has a cost of 4,500,000, residual value of 500,000, and a 10-year life. The equipment can only be used to manufacture the phone. The cost to manufacture the phone follows: Determine the average rate of return on the equipment.arrow_forwardReturn on Investment and Economic Value Added Calculations with Varying Assumptions Knitpix Products is a division of Parker Textiles Inc. During the coming year, it expects to earn income of 310,000 based on sales of 3.45 million. Without any new investments, the division will have average operating assets of 3 million. The division is considering a capital investment projectadding knitting machines to produce gaitersthat requires an additional investment of 600,000 and increases net income by 57,500 (sales would increase by 575,000). If made, the investment would increase beginning operating assets by 600,000 and ending operating assets by 400,000. Assume that the actual cost of capital for the company is 7%. (Note: Round all answers to four decimal places.) Required: 1. Compute the ROI for the division without the investment. 2. Compute the margin and turnover ratios without the investment. Show that the product of the margin and turnover ratios equals the ROI computed in Requirement 1. 3. CONCEPTUAL CONNECTION Compute the ROI for the division with the new investment. Do you think the divisional manager will approve the investment? 4. CONCEPTUAL CONNECTION Compute the margin and turnover ratios for the division with the new investment. How do these compare with the old ratios? 5. CONCEPTUAL CONNECTION Compute the EVA of the division with and without the investment. Should the manager decide to make the knitting machine investment?arrow_forwardNet Present Value, Uncertainty Ondi Airlines is interested in acquiring a new aircraft to service a new route. The route will be from Tulsa to Denver. The aircraft will fly one round-trip daily except for scheduled maintenance days. There are 15 maintenance days scheduled each year. The seating capacity of the aircraft is 150. Flights are expected to be fully booked. The average revenue per passenger per flight (one-way) is 235. Annual operating costs of the aircraft follow: The aircraft will cost 120,000,000 and has an expected life of 20 years. The company requires a 12% return. Assume there are no income taxes. Required: 1. Calculate the NPV for the aircraft. Should the company buy it? 2. In discussing the proposal, the marketing manager for the airline believes that the assumption of 100% booking is unrealistic. He believes that the booking rate will be somewhere between 70 and 90%, with the most likely rate being 80%. Recalculate the NPV by using an 80% seating capacity. Should the aircraft be purchased? 3. Calculate the average seating rate that would be needed so that NPV will equal zero. Round the seating rate to the nearest percent. 4. CONCEPTUAL CONNECTION Suppose that the price per passenger could be increased by 10% without any effect on demand. What is the average seating rate now needed to achieve an NPV equal to zero? What would you now recommend? Round the seating rate to the nearest percent.arrow_forward
