LATE sheet ges 18. The Taylor Mountain Uranium Company currently has annual revenues of $1.2 million and annual expenses exclusive of depreciation of $700,000. Depre- ciation amounts to $200,000 per year. These figures are expected to remain con- stant for the foreseeable future (at least 15 years). The firm's marginal tax rate is 40 percent. A new high-speed processing unit costing $1.2 million is being considered as a potential investment designed to increase the firm's output capacity. This new piece of equipment will have an estimated usable life of 10 years and a $0 esti- mated salvage value. If the processing unit is bought, Taylor's annual revenues are expected to increase to $1.6 million, and annual expenses exclusive of depre- ciation will increase to $900,000. Annual depreciation will increase to $320,000. Assume that no increase in net working capital will be required as a result of this project. (Note: This problem is the same as problem 7 in Chapter 9, except for the following questions.) a. Calculate the processing unit's net present value, using a 12 percent required b. Should Taylor accept the project? c. How many internal rates of return does the processing unit project have? Why? d. Calculate the processing unit's internal rate of return. return
