Question

We are evaluating a project that costs $832,000, has an eight-year life, and has no salvage value. Assume that depreciation is straight-line to zero over the life of the project. Sales are projected at 40,000 units per year. Price per unit is $40, variable cost per unit is $15, and fixed costs are $700,000 per year. The tax rate is 35 percent, and we require a 18 percent return on this project.

    

Calculate the accounting break-even point.

  

    

What is the degree of operating leverage at the accountin g break-even point? (Round your answer to 3 decimal places. (e.g., 32.161))

    

    

Calculate the base-case cash flow and NPV. (Round your NPV answer to 2 decimal places. (e.g., 32.16))

  

  

What is the sensitivity of NPV to changes in the sales figure? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 3 decimal places. (e.g., 32.161))
