A new project will allow you to sell a new product at $50 each. Variable costs are $30 each and fixed costs would run $50,000 per year. If there is no initial investment required, how many units would you have to sell annually to break-even (aka the "accounting break-even quantity") and what is your average cost selling that number of units? BE = 2, 500; AC = 50 BE = 3,000; AC = 45 BE = 2, 500; AC = 30 BE = 6, 250; AC = 55 BE = 7,000; AC = 50 A new project will allow you to sell a new product at $50 each. Variable costs are $30 each and fixed costs would run $50,000 per year. If there is an initial investment required of $80,000 and the project has a four year life (assume the firm depreciates straight-line to zero), how many units would you have to sell annually to break-even including the recovery of initial investment. (aka the "accounting break-even quantity")? 2, 500 3,000 3, 500 6, 250 7,000 The WACC (weighted average cost of capital) may not be appropriate if: all projects have of the firm have the same risk profile there are distinct operating divisions with projects of different risk levels the NPV is negative when using the WACC as the discount rate the WACC should always be used when evaluating new projects the required rate of return is greater than or less than the IRR
