Summary Introduction
To determine: The special deal should be made or not made.
Introduction:
Present value (PV):
It is the value that is in present form of money in contrast to some future amount. This is achieved when it is invested in compound interest.
Net present value (NPV):
The NPV is the measurement of profit that is calculated by subtracting the present values of cash outflows and cash inflows. The NPV is used as a tool to measure the profitability of investing in a project.

Bold's Gym, a health club chain, is consideringexpanding into a new location: the initial investment would be $1million in equipment, renovation, and a 6-year lease, and its annualupkeep and expenses would be $75,000 (paid at the beginning of theyear). Its planning horizon is 6 years out, and at the end, it can sell theequipment for $50,000. Club capacity is 500 members who would payan annual fee of$600. Bold's expects to have no problems filling membershipslots. Assume that the interest rate is 10%.a) What is the present value profit/loss of the deal?b) The club is considering offering a special deal to the members inthe first year. For $3,000 upfront they get a full 6-year membership(i .e., I year free). Would it make financial sense to offer this deal?
An airline company must plan its fleet capacity and long-term schedule of aircraft usage. For oneflight segment, the average number of customers per day is 70, which represents a 65 percentageutilization rate of the equipment assigned to the flight segment. If demand is expected toincrease to 84 customers for this flight segment in three years, and management requires acapacity cushion of 25 percent, calculate the following:
i. the planned capacity requirement. ii. the maximum number of customers the flight segment can accommodate.iii. the efficiency rate of the flight segment assuming that the current effective capacity of theflight segment is 93 customers.

There are three alternatives:Option A would modernize all baths and combine rooms, leavingthe inn with four suites, each suitable for two to four adults.Option B would modernize only the second floor; the results wouldbe six suites, four for two to four adults, two for two adults only.Option C (the status quo option) leaves all walls intact. In this case,there are eight rooms available, but only two are suitable for fouradults, and four rooms will not have private baths.

The restaurant occupies a large home, andall the space in the building is now used for dining, the bar, and kitchen, but space is available on theproperty to expand the restaurant. The restaurant is open from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. each night (exceptMonday) and, on average, has 24 customers enter the bar and 50 enter the dining room during each ofthose hours.

- Mark has just been fired as the university bookstore manager for setting prices too low (only 20 percentabove suggested retail). He is considering opening a competing bookstore near the campus, and he hasbegun an analysis of the situation. There are two possible sites under consideration. One is relativelysmall while the other is large. If he opens at Site 1 and demand is good, he will generate a profit of$50,000. If demand is low, he will lose $10,000. If he opens at Site 2 and demand is high he willgenerate a profit of $80,000, but he will lose $30,000 if demand is low. He also has decided that he willopen at one of these sites. He believes that there is a 60 percent chance that demand will be high. Heassigns the following utilities to the different profits:U(50,000) = 0.72 U(-10,000) = 0.22U(80,000) = 1 U(-30,000) = 0Using expected utility theory, what should Mark do?arrow_forwardA manufacturer of ballet shoes has determined that its production facility has a design capacity of 300 shoes per week.

- A supermall with two levels is under construction. The plan is to install only 9 elevators at the start, although the ultimate design calls for 16. The question arises as to whether to provide necessary facilities (supports, wiring conduits, motor foundations, etc.) that would permit the installation of the additional elevators at the mere cost of their purchase and installation or to defer investment in these facilities until the elevators actually need to be installed. Additional annual expenses are estimated at $7,000 for each elevator after it's installed. Assume these costs begin one year after the installation. At an interest rate of 12%, compare the net present worth of each option over eight years. The two options are: Option A Provide these facilities now for all seven future elevators at $300,000 Option B Defer the investment as needed. Install two more elevators in two years, three more in five years, and the last two in eight years. The installation of these facilities at…arrow_forwardTim Smunt has been asked to evaluate two machines. After some investigation, he determines that they have the costs shown in the following table: Machine A Machine B Original Cost $15,000 $24,000 Labor per year $2,400 $4,800 Maintenance per year $4,300 $1,000 Salvage value $2,400 $7,200 He is told to assume that: 1. The life of each machine is 3 years. 2. The company thinks it knows how to make 14% on investments no more risky than this one. 3. Labor and maintenance are paid at the end of the year. The NPV for Machine A=$nothing (round your response to the nearest whole number and include a minus sign if necessary).arrow_forwardPreliminary plans are underway for construction of a new stadium for a major league baseball team. City officials question the number and profitability of the luxury corporate boxes planned for the upper deck of the stadium. Corporations and selected individuals may purchase a box for $300,000.

What is the breakeven point for the number of luxury boxes in the new stadium? b. Preliminary drawings for the stadium show that space is available for the construction of up to 50 luxury boxes. Promoters indicate that buyers are available and that all 50 could be sold if constructed. What is your recommendation concerning the construction of luxury boxes?

- In considering a capacity expansion, we have two alternatives. The first alternative is expected to cost $1,000,000 and has an expected profit of $500,000 over the next three years. The second alternative has an expected cost of $800,000 and an expected profit of $450,000 over the next three years. Which alternative should we select, and what is the expected value of the expansion?

The company’s Marketing Department estimates that demand for the new toy will range between 15,000 units and 30,000 units per month. The new toy will sell for $9.00 per unit. Enough capacity exists in the company’s plant to produce 20,000 units of the toy each month. Variable expenses to manufacture and sell one unit would be $5.00 , and incremental fixed expenses associated with the toy would total $34,000 per month. Neptune has also identified an outside supplier who could produce the toy for a price of $4.00 per unit plus a fixed fee of $47,000 per month for any production volume up to 20,000 units. For a production volume between 20,001 and 45,000 units the fixed fee would increase to a total of $94,000 per month. Required: 1.
