Consider how Cherry Valley, a popular ski resort, could use capital budgeting to decide whether the

$9 million Spring Park Lodge expansion would be a good investment.

Requirement 1. What is the project's NPV? Is the investment attractive? Why or why not?

Calculate the net present value of the expansion. (Round your answer to the nearest whole dollar. Use parentheses or a minus sign for a negative net present value.)

Net present value of expansion $

Is the investment attractive? Why?The expansion is an attractive project because its NPV is positive

.Requirement 2. Assume the expansion has no residual value. What is the project's NPV? Is the investment still attractive? Why or why not?

Calculate the project's NPV. (Round your answer to the nearest whole dollar. Use parentheses or a minus sign for a negative net present value.)

Net present value of expansion $

Is the investment attractive? Why?

Without a residual value, the expansion is still attractive because of the project's positive NPV.

i i Data Table Assume that Cherry Valley's managers developed the following estimates concerning a planned expansion to its Spring Park Lodge (all numbers assumed): Number of additional skiers per day.. 117 Average number of days per year that weather conditions allow skiing at Cherry Valley 159 Useful life of expansion (in years). 8 Average cash spent by each skier per day $ 247 Average variable cost of serving each skier per day .... $ 134 Cost of expansion.. $ 9,000,000 Discount rate.. 12% Assume that Cherry Valley uses the straight-line depreciation method and expects the lodge expansion to have a residual value of $850,000 at the end of its eight-year life. It has already calculated the average annual net cash inflow per year to be $2,102,139.
