After toiling way on $10 million worth of prototypes, you have finally produced your answer to Google Glasses: Glasses (the name alone is genius). Glasses will instantly transport the wearer into the worlds Apple wants you to experience it: iTunes with the wink of an eye and apps that can be activated just by looking at them. You think that these will sell for 5 years until the next big thing comes along (or until the ene unable to interact with actual human beings). Revenues are projected to be $450 million per year along with expenses of $350 million. You will need to spend $60 million immediately on additional equipment that put into use in year 1 and will be depreciated using the 5-year MACRS schedule. Additionally, you will use some fully-depreciated existing equipment that has a market value of S10 million. As the Glasses are an outcome of the R&D center, Apple thinks it should charge 55 million of the annual costs of the center to the Glasses product for 5 years. Finally, Apple's working capital levels will increase from their current level of S120 million to $140 million immodiately. They will remain at the clevated level until your 5, when they will return to S120 million. Apple's discount rate for this project is 15% and its tax rate is 35% Calculate the free cash flows and determine the NPV of this project.
