Net Present Value Use Exhibit 14B-1 and Exhibit 14B-2 to locate the present value of an annuity of $1, which is the amount to be multiplied times the future annual cash flow amount. Each of the following scenarios is independent. Assume that all cash flows are after-tax cash flows. a.Southward Manufacturing is considering the purchase of a new welding system. The cash benefits will be $400,000 per year. The system costs $2,250,000 and will last 10 years. b.Kaylin Day is interested in investing in a women's specialty shop. The cost of the investment is $180,000. She estimates that the return from owning her own shop will be $35,000 per year. She estimates that the shop will have a useful life of 6 years. c.Goates Company calculated the NPV of a project and found it to be $21,300. The project's life was estimated to be 8 years. The required rate of return used for the NPV calculation was 10%. The project was expected to produce annual after-tax cash flows of $45,000. Question 1: Conceptual Connection: Assuming a required rate of return of 8%, calculate the NPV for Kaylin Day's investment. Round to the nearest dollar. If required, round all present value calculations to the nearest dollar. Use the minus sign to indicate a negative NPV. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NPV and IRR, Mutually Exclusive Projects For discount factors use Exhibit 14B-1 and Exhibit 14B-2. Weeden Inc. intends to invest in one of two competing types of computer-aided manufacturing equipment: CAM X and CAM Y. Both CAM X and CAM Y models have a project life of 10 years. The purchase price of the CAM X model is $2,400,000, and it has a net annual after-tax cash inflow of $600,000. The CAM Y model is more expensive, selling for $2,800,000, but it will produce a net annual after-tax cash inflow of $700,000. The cost of capital for the company is 10%. Required: 1. Calculate the NPV for each project. Round present value calculations and your final answers to the nearest dollar. CAM X: $ CAM Y: $ -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Accounting Rate of Return Eyring Company invested $7,500,000 in a new product line. The life cycle of the product is projected to be 7 years with the following net income stream: $300,000, $300,000, $500,000, $900,000, $1,000,000, $2,100,000, and $1,200,000.
