Question:
Floyd Clymer is the CFO of Bonavista Mustang, a manufacturer of parts for classic automobiles. Floyd is considering the purchase of a two-ton press which will allow the firm to stamp out auto fenders. The equipment costs $250,000. The project is expected to produce after-tax cash flows of $60,000 the first year, and increase by $10,000 annually; the after-tax cash flow in year 5 will reach $100,000. Liquidation of the equipment will net the firm $10,000 in cash at the end of five years, making the total cash flow in year five $110,000. Assuming a required return is 15%, what is the project's profitability index?
