Fruity Ltd is a family owned company run by George and Sarah Watts. The Watts plan to retire in four years and were hoping that their son Angus would take over the business. However, Angus has just been hired as a graphic designer and has told his parents he is not interested in taking over the family firm. The Watts therefore have decided that they will close the business in four years when they retire.

Fruity Ltd currently makes tinned peaches and pears but the Watts have heard that tinned apples are becoming more fashionable and are considering whether they should expand into this market in the years before they retire. They have asked you to help them to decide whether to expand into apples.

They will need to buy a new machine which will cost $100,000 to process the apples. The machine would be depreciated straight line for 10 years to a terminal book value of zero. The Watts estimate that they will be able to sell it for $65,000 when they close the company.

The Watts have already engaged Markitz, a marketing firm to survey the market about demand for the tinned apples. Markitz charged them $15,000 for this analysis. Marktiz estimates that they should be able to sell the apples at $4 a tin and should be able to sell about 10,000 tins per year. However, Markitz also estimate that they will lose about $2,000 in sales of their peaches and pears every year as some their current customers switch from buying their tinned peaches and pears to buying their apples.

The Watts will need to hire two new employees to operate the apple machine and pack the tinned apples. They estimate the cost of these employees will be $10,000 per year. Expanding into apples will also result in an increase in operating costs of $2,000 per year. There will also need to be an initial investment of 1,000 in net working capital which will be fully recoverable at the end of the fourth year. The company tax rate is 30%.
