Landman Corporation $($LC$)$ manufactures time series photographic equipment. It is

currently at its target debt$-$equity ratio of $\mathrm{.}80.$ It's considering building a new $$56$ million

manufacturing facility. This new plant is expected to generate aftertax cash flows of $$6\mathrm{.}8$

million in perpetuity. The company raises all equity from outside financing. There are

three financing options:

A new issue of common stock. The flotation costs of the new common stock would be

$8\mathrm{.}6$ percent of the amount raised. The required return on the company's new equity is

$14$ percent.

A new issue of $20-$year bonds: The flotation costs of the new bonds would be $3\mathrm{.}6$

percent of the proceeds. If the company issues these new bonds at an annual coupon

rate of $5\mathrm{.}7$ percent, they will sell at par.

Increased use of accounts payable financing: Because this financing is part of the

company's ongoing daily business, it has no flotation costs and the company assigns

it a cost that is the same as the overall firm WACC. Management has a target ratio of

accounts payable to long$-$term debt of $15.$ Assume there is no difference between the

pretax and aftertax accounts payable costs.

What is the NPV of the new plant? Assume that LC has a $21$ percent tax rate. $($Do not
