$25.$ Consider a project to supply $100$ million postage stamps per year to the U$.$S$.$ Postal Service for the next five years. You have an idle parcel of land available that cost $$750,000$ five years ago; if the land were sold today, it would net you $$1\mathrm{.}1$ million aftertax. The land can be sold for $$1\mathrm{.}3$ million after taxes in five years. You will need to install $$5\mathrm{.}4$ million in new manufacturing plant and equipment to actually produce the stamps; this plant and equipment will be depreciated straight$-$line to zero over the project's five$-$year life. The equipment can be sold for $$575,000$ at the end of the project. You will also need $$450,000$ in initial net working capital for the project, and an additional investment of $$40,000$ in every year thereafter. Your production costs are $\mathrm{.}29$ cents per stamp, and you have fixed costs of $$1\mathrm{.}1$ million per year. If your tax rate is $23$ percent and your required return on this project is $10$ percent, what bid price should you submit on the contract?
