Question: 102. Consider a 6-year project with the following information: initial fixed asset investment = $460,000; straight-line depreciation to zero over the 6-year life; zero salvage

102. Consider a 6-year project with the following information: initial fixed asset investment = $460,000; straight-line depreciation to zero over the 6-year life; zero salvage value; price = $34; variable costs = $19; fixed costs = $188,600; quantity sold = 90,528 units; tax rate = 32 percent. What is the sensitivity of OCF to changes in quantity sold? A. $10.20 per unit B. $11.16 per unit C. $11.38 per unit D. $12.33 per unit E. $12.54 per unit OCF = [($34 - $19) 90,528 - 188,600][1 - 0.32] + [($460,000/6) 0.32] = $819,670.93 Using 91,528 units: (You can use any amount as the second level of quantity sold as the sensitivity will be the same.) OCF = [($34 - $19) 91,528 - 188,600][1 - 0.32] + [($460,000/6) 0.32] = $829,870.93 Sensitivity = ($829,870.93 - $819,670.93)/(91,528 - 90,528) = $10.20 where 91528 comes from???
