Now determine what the projects NPV would be when using straight-line depreciation

option a - 44,739

option b- 46,528

option c- 35,791

option d- 41,160

Using the depreciation method will result in the highest NPV for the project.

option a - straight-line

option b - accelerated

2. Analysis of an expansion project Companies invest in expansion projects with the expectation of increasing the earnings of its business. Consider the case of Fox Co: Fox Co, is considering an investment that will have the following sales, variable costs, and fixed operating costs: This project will require an investment of $25,000 in new equipment. The equipment will have no salvage value at the end of the project's four-year life. Fox pays a constant tax rate of 40%, and it has a weighted average cost of capital (WACC) of 11%. Determine what the project's net present value (NPV) would be when using accelerated depreciation. Determine what the project's net present value (NPV) would be when using accelerated depreciation. (Note: Round your intermediate calculations to the nearest whole number.) $41,651 $36,218 $32,596 $43,462 Now determine what the project's NPV would be when using straight-line depreciation. Using the depreciation method will result in the highest NPV for the project. No other firm would take on this project if Fox turns it down. How much should Fox reduce the NPV of this project if it discovered that this project would reduce one of its division's net after-tax cash flows by $400 for each year of the four-year project? $1,241 $931 $1,055 $1,365
