What is the cash flow due to tax on salvage value for this project? 0
What is the project's cash flow for year 10 for this project? 15,360,000

Problem:

REX Inc. currently has one product, low-priced stoves. REX Inc. has decided to sell a new line of medium-priced stoves. Sales revenues for the new line of stoves are estimated at $60 million a year. Variable costs are 90% of sales. The project is expected to last 10 years. Also, non-variable costs are 2,500,000 per year. The company has spent $1,000,000 in research and a marketing study that determined the company will lose (cannibalization) $2.8 million in sales a year of its existing low-priced stoves. The production variable cost of the existing low-priced stoves is $1.5 million a year. The plant and equipment required for producing the new line of stoves costs $15,000,000 and will be depreciated down to zero over 30 years using straight-line depreciation. It is expected that the plant and equipment can be sold (salvage value) for $10,00,000 at the end of 10 years. The new stoves will also require today an increase in net working capital of $3.500,000 that will be returned at the end of the project. Tax rate 20%. Cost of capital 10%.
