Question

To solve the bid price problem presented in the text, we set the project NPV equal to zero and found the required price using the definition of OCF. Thus the bid price represents a financial break-even level for the project. This type of analysis can be extended to many other types of problems.

Explanation / Answer

a) Initial Investment = $950,000 + 83,000 (Working Capital)

Calculation of Depriciation: Cost / Life in Years

Depriciation = 950,000 / 5 = $190,000

Calculation of Operating Cash Flow:

PV Factor at 10% for 5 Years= 3.79079

PV Factor at 10% for 5 Years of a single amount = 0.62092

PV of Net Cash Inflow = 410,836 x 3.79079 = $1,557,393

PV of Salvage Value = 78,000 (1-0.34) x 0.62092= $51,480

PV of released Working Capital = 83,000 x 0.62092 = $51,536.36

Total = $1,660,409.36

NPV = PV of Inflow - PV of Outflow

NPV = 1,660,409.36 - 1,033,000 = $627,409.36

b) Calculation of Break Even Point:

BEP = Fixed Cost / Contribution Per Unit

BEP = 333,000 / 6.70 = 49,702 Cartons

c) Contribution at Present Level = $857,600

Less: Fixed Cost + Depriciation = 523,000

Net Profit = $334,600

So, total Fixed Cost can be = $667,600 (333,000 + 334,600)

So, this is the Highest level of Fixed Cost that can be afforded.

Amount($) Per Unit Sales (128,000 x 17.80) 2,278,400 17.80 - Variable Cost (128,000 x 11.10) 1,420,800 11.10 Contribution 857,600 6.70 Less: Fixed Cost 333,000 Less: Depriciation 190,000 Earning Before Tax 334,600 Less: Tax(34%) 113,764 Earning After Tax 220,836 Add: Depriciation 190,000 Net Cash Inflow 410,836
