Leisure Manufacturing, Inc. is a producer of grills. Its current line of grills are selling excellently. However, in order to cope with the foreseeable competition from other similar products, LM spent $5,900,000 to develop a new line of expert grills (new model development cost). The grill measurses 55"W x 25"D x 48"H and weighs 60 pounds on two wheels and two stable legs. It has 4 stainless steel tube burners providing a total of 48,000 BTU on a push and turn integrated ignition system using liquid propane gas. It is versifuel compatible. That means it can be converted to use nautral gas with the implementation of the optional versifuel kit. The primary cooking area is 480 sq. inches enabling a cooking capacity of 28 burgers at the same time whereas the warming rack area is 180 sq. inches. In addition to the black stainless steel control panel and two black powder-coated side shelves on the left, the grill has a black stainless steel 12,000-BTU side burner for the preparation of sauces and side dishes on the right. The grill includes a porcelain-coated cast iron cooking grid panel and a black porcelain-coated flame tamer for each individual burner. The warming rack is built with porcelain-coated steel. The lid is made of stainless steel with aluminized steel liner and black steel endcaps. The oval temperature gauge is located in the center of the lid. The same porcelain-coated steel is used to build the bottom bowl. Its porcelain heat plates are designed to reduce flare ups. The company had also spent a further $1,300,000 to study the marketability of this new line of expert grill model (marketability studying cost). LM is able to produce the expert grills at a variable cost of $70 each. The total fixed costs for the operation are expected to be $9,000,000 per year. LM expects to sell 3,800,000 units, 4,500,000 units, 2,800,000 units, 1,800,000 units and 1,200,000 units of the new grill model per year over the next five years respectively. The new expert grills will be selling at a price of $120 each. To launch this new line of production, LM needs to invest $32,000,000 in equipment which will be depreciated on a seven-year MACRS schedule. The value of the used equipment is expected to be worth $4,200,000 as at the end of the 5 year project life. LM is planning to stop producing the existing grill model entirely in two years. Should LM not introduce the expert grill, sales per year of the existing grill model will be 1,800,000 units and 1,300,000 units for the next two years respectively. The existing model can be produced at variable costs of $50 each and total fixed costs of $7,500,000 per year. The existing grill model are selling for $100 each. If LM produces the expert grill model, sales of existing model will be eroded by 1,080,000 units for next year and 1,105,000 units for the year after next. In addition, to promote sales of the existing model alongside with the expert grill model, LM has to reduce the price of the Jexisting model to $75 each. Net working capital for the expert grill project will be 20 percent of sales and will vary with the occurrence of the cash flows. As such, there will be no initial NWC required. The first change in NWC is expected to occur in year 1 according to the sales of the year. LM is currently in the tax bracket of 35 percent and it requires a 20 percent returns on all of its projects. The firm Jalso requires a payback of 4 years for all projects. You have just been hired by LM as a financial consultant to advise them on this expert grill project. You are expected to provide answers to the following questions to their management by their next meeting which is scheduled sometime next month. Depreciation Estimation: Use the formula stated below to calculate the depreciation expenses. Depreciation of Yeart = Cost of equipment MACRS percentage for Yeart [For all MACRS percentages in this part, enter as a decimal number with 4 decimal places.] Depreciation of Year 1 = $ Depreciation of Year 2 = $ Depreciation of Year 3 = $ Depreciation of Year 4 = $ Depreciation of Year 5 = $ $
