- 6.11 (LO 4 ) (Evaluation of Purchase Options) Rizzo Excavating Inc. is purchasing a bulldozer. The equipment has a price of $100,000. The manufacturer has offered a payment plan that would allow Rizzo to make 10 equal annual payments of $16,274.53, with the first payment due one year after the purchase. Instructions a. How much total interest will Rizzo pay on this payment plan? b. Rizzo could borrow $100,000 from its bank to finance the purchase at an annual rate of 9%. Should Rizzo borrow from the bank or use the manufacturer's payment plan to pay for the equipment?arrow_forwardCH5 #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.

How can Minelli ensure that it will pay no more than $3 per pound for copper using a forward contract? Question content area bottom Part 1 (Select the best choice below.) A. Minelli can take a short position in a forward contract for copper, with a delivery date in one month, and a delivery price of $3/lb. To complete this transaction, Minelli must find a counterpart to take the other side of the contract. B.

- ch 12 #5 The management of Kunkel Company Is considering the purchase of a $26,000 machine that would reduce operating costs by $6500 per year. At the end of the machines five-year useful life, it will have zero salvage value. The companies required rate of return is 16%. 1) determine the net present value of the investment on the machine. 2) what is the difference between the total, undiscounted cash inflows and cash out flows over the entire life of the machine?  Can you show me how to do this? Also, i don’t know which chart I’m supposed to use.arrow_forwardQ No. 3 A construction company is deciding to undertake a project. The project is quite profitable as it will generate net cash inflows of $20 million per year for 5 years. However, it will cause pollution to the nearby residents. The company can mitigate this pollution by investing additional 10 million at Year 0 but legally it is not compulsory for it to do so. Undertaking this project would cost $60 million without mitigation. If the firm does invest in mitigation, the annual cash inflows would be $22 million. The risk adjusted WACC is 12%.

- Q3 6 6. Holmes Inc. purchased computer equipment two years ago at a total cost of $1,000,000. These computers could be sold today for $300,000. If these computers are sold in five years, they will be worth $50,000. The CCA rate for these computers is 30%. The company is now considering whether it should replace these computers with newer and more powerful ones. The estimated total purchase cost of the new computers is $1.5 million. These computers can be sold for $300,000 in five years, and their CCA rate remains at 30%. The company expects to obtain before-tax cost savings of $300,000 per year from these new computers. The company’s marginal tax rate is 35%, and its required rate of return on new equipment is 15%. Should the company replace the computer equipment?arrow_forwardA3 5a. 5.

Pollution Busters, Inc., is considering a purchase of 10 additional carbon sequesters for $100,000 apiece. The sequesters last for only 1 year until saturated with carbon. Then the carbon is removed and sold. (O LO4) a. Suppose the government guarantees the price of carbon. At this price, the payoff after 1 year is guaranteed to be $115,000. How would you determine the opportunity cost of capital for this investment? b. Suppose instead that the sequestered carbon has to be sold on the London Carbon Exchange. Carbon prices have been extremely volatile, but Pollution Busters' CFO learns that average rates of return from investment on that exchange have been about 20%. She thinks this is a reasonable forecast for the future. What is the opportunity cost of capital in this case? Is the purchase of an additional sequester a worthwhile capital investment if she expects that the price of extracted carbon will $115,000? please show the strpsarrow_forward
- H2. .  Time remaining: 00:09:29 Finance You own a coal mining company and are considering opening a new mine. The mine itself will cost $120 million to open. If this money is spent immediately, the mine will generate $22 million for the next 10 years. After that, the coal will run out and the site must be cleaned and maintained at environmental standards. The cleaning and maintenance are expected to cost $1.8 million per year in perpetuity. What does the IRR rule say about whether you should accept this opportunity? (Hint: Consider the number of sign changes in the cash flows.) If the cost of capital is 7.6%, what does the NPV rule say? Question content area bottom Part 1) What does the IRR rule say about whether you should accept this opportunity? (Select the best choice below.) A. Accept the opportunity because the IRR is greater than the cost of capital. B. There are two IRRs, so you cannot use the IRR as a criterion for accepting the opportunity. C. Reject…arrow_forwardE7.7 (LO 3, 4), AP Shruti Shrills is considering an expansion of one of its existing buildings to add more manufacturing space for its kid-friendly noisemakers. Several possible scenarios exist for future cash flows, as follows. 1. Construction costs of $500,000; steady sales and costs each year, netting to an annual operating cash inflow of $70,000; the expansion would have no salvage value at the end of its 10-year useful life (the building would be repurposed for a different product).2. Construction costs of $500,000; rising and then falling net cash flows each year for 10 years, as follows: $50,000 for the first 2 and last 2 years, $175,000 for years 3–5, and $100,000 for years 6–8.3. Construction costs of $700,000; no cash flows in year 1, $75,000 in years 2 and 3, $150,000 in year 4, $100,000 in years 5–8, and $50,000 in the last 2 years.Required 1.
