A design study has just been completed for a chemical plant. The economic parameters relevant to the project include the following items:

Production at 100% capacity = 2x106 kg/yr

Total capital investment = $30 million

Fixed capital investment = $28 million

Sum of the fixed cost (except for depreciation) = $1 million/yr

Sum of variable product costs at full capacity = $5 million/yr

Evaluation policies: Use 5 yr straight line depreciation with yr convention. Neglect working capital and salvage value recovery. Use 35% tax rate per year. Use 10 yr evaluation period; base the calculations on 60% of rated output the first year, 85% the 2nd year, 100% each year thereafter. Assume that all capital investment occurs at zero time. Minimum acceptable return 30% /yr (m_ar).

a) Calculate the product sales price that is required to achieve the mar, obtained by Return on Investment and Payback period.
