She has two projects that she is considering: Project #1: Dancing Horses on Parade . Requires the purchase and training of thoroughbred Clydesdale horses, estimated to cost $1,931,400 upfront. . In addition, due to the seasonal and transitional nature of the circus industry, Jo Jo estimates that she will need to dedicate working capital of $38,000 at the beginning of the project. The $38,000 working capital will become available once the project's life is over. . Jo Jo expects the project to yield positive net annual cash flows over the project's expected 8-year life as follows: o End of 1st Year: $320,000 o End of 2nd Year: $384,000 End of 3rd Year: $480,000 o End of 4th Year: $565,000 o End of 5th Year: $685,000 End of 6th Year: $531,000 o End of 7th Year: $424,700 o End of 8th Year: $340,000 . Although Jo Jo full expects the project to be successful, she believes that the Net Annual Cash Flows may range between 80% and 120% of her estimates above. . Jo Jo expects to retire and sell the horses at the end of the 8 years for $112,500
