Blossom Corp. is thinking about opening a soccer camp in southern California. To start the camp, Blossom would need to purchase land and build four soccer fields and a sleeping and dining facility to house 150 soccer players. Each year, the camp would be run for 8 sessions of 1 week each. The company would hire college soccer players as coaches. The camp attendees would be male and female soccer players ages 1218. Property values in southern California have enjoyed a steady increase in value. It is expected that after using the facility for 20 years, Blossom can sell the property for more than it was originally purchased for. The following amounts have been estimated.

Cost of land		$331,200
Cost to build soccer fields, dorm, and dining facility		$662,400
Annual cash inflows assuming 150 players and 8 weeks		$1,015,680
Annual cash outflows		$927,360
Estimated useful life		20 years
Salvage value		$1,656,000
Discount rate		8%

(a)

Calculate the net present value of the project. (If the net present value is negative, use either a negative sign preceding the number e.g. -45 or parentheses e.g. (45). Round answer to 0 decimal places, e.g. 125. For calculation purposes, use 5 decimal places as displayed in the factor table provided.)

(b)

To gauge the sensitivity of the project to these estimates, assume that if only 125 players attend each week, annual cash inflows will be $888,720 and annual cash outflows will be $828,000. What is the net present value using these alternative estimates? (If the net present value is negative, use either a negative sign preceding the number e.g. -45 or parentheses e.g. (45). Round answer to 0 decimal places, e.g. 125. For calculation purposes, use 5 decimal places as displayed in the factor table provided.)

Assuming the original facts, what is the net present value if the project is actually riskier than first assumed and a 10% discount rate is more appropriate? (If the net present value is negative, use either a negative sign preceding the number e.g. -45 or parentheses e.g. (45). Round answer to 0 decimal places, e.g. 125.

Assume that during the first 5 years, the annual net cash flows each year were only $44,160. At the end of the fifth year, the company is running low on cash, so management decides to sell the property for $1,470,528. What was the actual internal rate of return on the project? (Round answer to 0 decimal places, e.g. 13%. For calculation purposes, use 5 decimal places as displayed in the factor table provided.)
