Question

Consider a project to supply Detroit with 40,000 tons of machine screws annually for automobile production. You will need an initial $1,440,000 investment in threading equipment to get the project started; the project will last for 7 years. The accounting department estimates that annual fixed costs will be $440,000 and that variable costs should be $180 per ton; accounting will depreciate the initial fixed asset investment straight-line to zero over the 7-year project life. It also estimates a salvage value of $471,000 after dismantling costs. The marketing department estimates that the automakers will let the contract at a selling price of $200 per ton. The engineering department estimates you will need an initial net working capital investment of $352,000. You require a 10 percent return and face a marginal tax rate of 34 percent on this project.

The estimated OCF for this project is?? NPV is??? Please round 2 decimal places
