Question:
We are evaluating a project that costs $800,000, 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 60,000 units per year. Price per unit is $40, variable cost per unit is $20, and fixed costs are $800,000 per year. The tax rate is 35 percent, and we require a return of 10 percent on this project. Suppose the projections given for price, quantity, variable costs, and fixed costs are all accurate to within ±10 percent.
Calculate the best-case and worst-case NPV figures. (Negative amounts should be indicated by a minus sign. Do not round intermediate calculations and round your final answers to 2 decimal places (e.g., 32.16).)
