The project will require an initial investment of $1.5 million in a new factory and Kendal Manufacturing has adopted a 4-year planning horizon, after which it intends to re-evaluate the investment. The factory will be built on a block of land that is being purchased for $1.75 million. Land values are projected to grow at an average rate of 2% per annum for the foreseeable future. The project will also require an additional investment of $350,000 in net working capital. Based on a feasibility study conducted at a cost of $50,000 net revenues have been projected at $1,500,000 per annum over the four-year period.
