Based on this information please answer part 4(first pic is the question and second pic is the stuff that I need solution for, no explanation needed, just answers please):
Devon Inc. has developed a powerful efficient snow blower that is significantly less polluting than existing snow blowers currently on the market. The company spent \(\$ 2,500,000\) developing this product and the marketing department spent another \(\$ 350,000\) to assess the market demand. It would cost \(\$ 25\) million at Year 0 to buy the equipment necessary to manufacture the efficient snow blower. The project would require net working capital at the beginning of each year equal to \(20\%\) of sales (NOWC0\(=\mathbf{20\%}\)(Sales1), NOWC1\(=\mathbf{20\%}\)(Sales2), etc.). The efficient snow blowers would sell for \(\$ 3,500\) per unit, and the company believes that variable costs would amount to \(\$ 990\) per unit. The company expects that the sales price and variable costs would increase at the inflation rate of \(4\%\) after year 1. The company's non-variable costs would be \(\$ 800,000\) in Year 1 and are expected to increase with inflation. The efficient snow blower project would have a life of 4 years. If the project is undertaken, it must be continued for the entire 4 years. Also, the project is expected to be of average risk. The firm believes it could sell 3,500 units per year. The equipment would be depreciated using a CCA rate of \(30\%\). The estimated market value of the equipment at the end of the project's 4-year life is its undepreciated capital cost (i.e. book value) at the end of year 4. The company has other assets in this asset class. Toefield Inc.'s federal-plusprovincial tax rate is \(\mathbf{30\%}\). Its cost of capital is \(7\%\) for average risk projects. Low-risk projects are evaluated with a WACC of \(6\%\), and high-risk projects at \(10\%\). Assume that the half-year rule applies to the CCA.
