When the cost of capital (or discount rate) increases, the IRR of a project: increases. decreases. is unaffected. cannot be determined without knowing the discount rate. None of the above. A project requires an initial investment of $70,000. The project is expected to produce $12,000 profit in the first five years and $9,000 profit in the following five years (i.e., years 6-10). What are the net present value (NPV) and the profitability index (PI) of this project assuming a discount rate of 7.7%? NPV = $3,290 and PI = 1.0470 NPV = $4,514 and P1 - 1.0645 NPV - $3,290 and PI = 1.0832 NPV = $4,514 and P1 = 1.0951 None of the above. again, but it is the same information). A kiteboarding company is considering a new facility to manufacture an improved line of kites and another facility to produce a new line of boards. The company estimates that the new kite facility will cost $1,250,000 to construct in Year O with a salvage value of $150,000 in Year 12. The board manufacturing facility will cost $1,500,000 in Year O with a salvage value of $200,000 in Year 12. Combined annual revenue for the new kites and boards is expected to be $800,000 with annual combined operating costs of $300,000 each year. Management has identified a piece of land where both facilities could be built that could be purchased for $500,000 in Year O. The management team estimates that the land may be sold for the same value of $500,000 at the end of Year 12. The company uses a discount rate of 10% and a tax rate of only 15%. Assume that the CCA rate of 20% can be applied to the land and the manufacturing facilities. What is the present value of the operating cash flows (i.e., revenues minus costs after tax)? $1,925,172.73 $2,347,252.50 $2,895,819.02 $3,406,845.91 again, but it is the same information).
