Now lets consider some additional factors. First, production of the implants will require $2,500,000 in networking capital to start and additional networking capital investments each year equal to 15 percent of the projected sales revenue increase for the following year. That is, the additional NWC in year 1 will be .15(Revenue in year 2 Revenue in year 1). In the final year of the project, EEI will recoup all of its NWC. Consider the following example. When someone opens a kiosk in the mall to sell Christmas ornaments from October 1 to January 31, that person has to make an investment in NWC, most notably an inventory of ornaments. Once January 31 comes, we assume that all the ornaments are sold and the person gets back their working capital.
