This project will require an investment of $10,000 in new equipment. Under the new tax law, the equipment is eligible for 100% bonus deprecation at t = 0, so it will be fully depreciated at the time of purchase. The equipment will have no salvage value at the end of the projects four-year life. Fox pays a constant tax rate of 25%, and it has a weighted average cost of capital (WACC) of 11%. Determine what the projects net present value (NPV) would be under the new tax law.

The project will require an initial investment of $10,000, but the project will also be using a company-owned truck that is not currently being used. This truck could be sold for $12,000, after taxes, if the project is rejected. What should Fox do to take this information into account?

- Increase the NPV of the project by $12,000.

- The company does not need to do anything with the value of the truck because the truck is a sunk cost.

- Increase the amount of the initial investment by $12,000.
