Question:

Consider how Hunter Valley Snow Park Lodge could use capital budgeting to decide whether the $11,000,000 Snow Park Lodge expansion would be a good investment. Assume Hunter Valley’s managers developed the following estimates concerning the expansion: 

Number of additional skiers per day .................................................121 skiers
Average number of days per year that weather conditions
allow skiing at Hunter Valley...............................................................142 days
Useful life of expansion (in years) .........................................................7 years
Average cash spent by each skier per day ....................................$ 241
Average variable cost of serving each skier per day......................... 83
Cost of expansion ....................................................................11,000,000
Discount rate ..........................................................................................10%

Assume that Hunter Valley uses the straight-line depreciation method and expects the lodge expansion to have a residual value of $600,000 at the end of its seven-year life. 


Requirements 

1. Compute the average annual net cash inflow from the expansion. 

2. Compute the average annual operating income from the expansion.
