Calculating Project NPV
Down Under Boomerang, Inc., is considering a new three-year expansion project that requires an initial fixed asset investment of $2.58 million. The fixed asset will be depreciated straight-line to zero over its three-year tax life, after which it will be worthless. The project is estimated to generate $2,040,000 in annual sales, with costs of $735,000. The tax rate is 34 percent and the required return is 15 percent.
