MFL For problems in this section, you should download the KMS spreadsheets available on the book's Web site. 12. Assume that KMS's market share will increase by 0.25% per year rather than the 1% used in the chapter (see Table 18.5) and that its prices remain as in the chapter. What production capacity will KMS require each year? When will an expansion become necessary (that is, when will production volume exceed 1100)? 13. Under the assumption that KMS's market share will increase by 0.25% per year, you determine that the plant will require an expansion in 2015. The expansion will cost $20 million. Assuming that the financing of the expansion will be delayed accordingly, calculate the projected interest payments and the amount of the projected interest tax shields (assuming that KMS still uses a 10-year bond and interest rates remain the same as in the chapter) through 2018.
