7-35. The following information is for a proposed project that will provide the capability to produce a specialized product estimated to have a short market (sales) life:

• Capital investment is $1,000,000. (This includes land and working capital.)

• The cost of depreciable property, which is part of the

$1,000,000 total estimated project cost, is $420,000.

• Assume, for simplicity, that the depreciable property is in the MACRS (GDS) three-year property class.

• The analysis period is three years.

• Annual operating and maintenance expenses are

$636,000 in the first year, and they increase at the rate of 6% per year (i.e., ¯f = 6%) thereafter. (See geometric gradient, Chapter 4.)

• Estimated MV of depreciable property from the project at the end of three years is $280,000.

• Federal income tax rate = 34%; state income tax rate = 4%.

• MARR (after taxes) is 10% per year.

Based on an after-tax analysis using thePWmethod, what minimum amount of equivalent uniform annual revenue is required to justify the project economically? (7.9, 7.10)
