Question

show all work please. include formulas that you used!

As the new CEO of Pemrose Corp (Carlton Whitfield), you are announcing a bold new expansion plan. This entails building a new factory. The initial cost is $500 million, it will last 8 years and is depreciated straight-line to a book value of O. Salvage value of the factory at t-8 is $100 million. Annual sales and costs will be $300 million and $200 million respectively (in all 8 years). Inventories will rise immediately by $15 million and A/P will rise immediately by $30 million. A/R will rise at the end of the first year by $20 million (t 1). All working capital components return to original values at the end of the project's life. WACC = 10% and = 30%. What is the NPV?

Explanation / Answer

Considering working capital to be apart of Initial investment.

Initial investment= Fixed Investment + working caiptal investment

= (500+15+20-30)= $505millions

Operating cashflows= Sales- cost- depriciation- tax exp+ depriciation

Depriciation= 500/8=62.50 millions

=300-200-62.50-11.25+62.50= $88.75 millions

Tax= 30%of(300-200-62.50)= $11.25 millions

Terminal cashflows= After tax salvage value+ WC

= 100*(1-0.30)+5= $75

NPV= Pv of All Cashinflows- Initial Investment

Calculation s are done using BAII Plus Calculator:

Go in Cashflow MOde

CF0=-505

CF1= 88.75, F= 7

CF2= 88.75+75= 163.75

I= 10

NPV CPT

NPV=$3.463millions(project is viable)
