Oakco manufactures oak furniture. The company is currently at full capacity operating
24 hours a day. The company's current sales are $22,000,000 per year and it's variable
cost are as follows:
Raw Matl.: $6,000,000/year
Dir. Labor: 2,000,000/year
Var. Mfg. O.H.: 8,000,000/year
Var. Selling exp: 500,000/year
Var. Adm. exp: 100,000/year
Total fixed cost amount to $3,000,000/year including current depreciation expense for
both manufacturing, sales and administration.
Oakco has been offered a five year contract to increase production and sales by 10%.
In order to meet the additional production Oakco's manufacturing manager has found a
new multiple cutting mill that can increase production by 10% without increasing floor
space, direct labor hours or variable overhead. In order to make room for the new
cutting mill the old cutting mill will have to be sold. The old mill was purchased 6 years
ago for $750,000 and was being depreciated over a ten year period using straight line
depreciation without taking salvage value into consideration. It can be sold today for
$150,000 or $50,000 at the end of it's life.
The installed cost of the new cutting mill is $1,500,000 and will be financed from current
operating cash flows. To go forward with the contract inventories, accounts receivable
and accounts payable will be increased which will result in an increase in working
capital of $350,000 which will also be financed from current operating cash flows.
Oakco uses straight line depreciation without taking salvage value into consideration, is
in the 48% marginal tax bracket and demands an 18% rate of return on all investments.
Required:
Develop a spreadsheet to indicate expected net after tax cash flow and
the present value of the after tax cash flows. Optional: have the
spreadsheet calculate the MIRR.
