Please show all work.

Consider the project where the initial cost is $200,000, and the project has a 5-year life. There is no salvage. Depreciation is straight-line (Depreciation = 200,000/5 = 40,000)

  • Unit Sales = 6000, Price per unit = $80 (Sales = 6,000 x 80)
  • Variable cost per unit = $60 (Variable Costs = 6,000 x 60)

The required return is 12%, and the tax rate is 21%

What are the cash flow each year, NPV and IRR in each case, if we changed fixed costs only?

Scenario Fixed Costs

Base case. $50,000

Worst case 55,000

Best case 45,000

Show all work as follows:

Step 1: Complete the income statement for each case:

BASE WORST BEST
Sales $480,000 $480,000 $480,000
Variable Costs 360,000 360,000 360,000
Fixed Costs 50,000 55,000 45,000
Depreciation 40,000 40,000 40,000
EBIT 30,000
Taxes (21%) 6,300
Net Income 23,700

Step 2: Use the income statement data to calculate the OCF for each case

Step 3: Complete the project cash flow for each case:

Year
0 1 2 3 4 5
OCF OCF OCF OCF OCF OCF
Change in NWC 0 0
NCS -200,000 0
Total -200,000 ? ? ? ? ?

Step 4: Calculate the NPV and IRR for each case
