By taking up this project, WP estimates additional cash flows of $85000 per annum for the next five years.

COGS are expected to be 40% of the revenues, SG&A will be 4% of the revenues.

This project will require an additional inventory of $60,000 and an increase in payables by $25000

Tax Rate is 20%

The target Debt: Equity is 1:4

Cost of new debt: 6%

The equipment that would be used has a 3-year tax life. Under the new tax law, the equipment used in the project is eligible for 100% bonus depreciation, so it will be fully depreciated at t = 0.
