The estimated life of the product is 3 years and the estimated operating revenues and costs are the following: 1 2 3 Sales 600,000 700,000 500,000 Operating costs 300,000 350,000 250,000 To produce this product the company will have to acquire a new equipment that costs $300,000. The equipment has a life of 3 years and will be depreciated straight line to zero (meaning that the book value in 3 year is 0). The company believes that the equipment can be sold in 3 year for $80,000. The new product requires networking capital at a level of about 10% of sales. The NWC should be built on the prior year.
