Please answer ALL questions. I will properly rate the answers.

Cardinal Company is considering a project that would require a $2,812,000 investment in equipment with a useful life of five years. At the end of five years, the project would terminate and the equipment would be sold for its salvage value of $400,000. The companys discount rate is 16%. The project would provide net operating income each year as follows:

Sales			$	2,855,000
Variable expenses				1,010,000
Contribution margin				1,845,000
Fixed expenses:
Advertising, salaries, and other fixed out-of-pocket costs	$	798,000
Depreciation		482,400
Total fixed expenses				1,280,400
Net operating income			$	564,600
Questions:

2.	What are the projects annual net cash inflows?

3.	What is the present value of the projects annual net cash inflows? (Use the appropriate table to determine the discount factor(s) and final answer to the nearest dollar amount.)

4.	What is the present value of the equipments salvage value at the end of five years? (Use the appropriate table to determine the discount factor(s) and final answer to the nearest dollar amount.)

5.	What is the projects net present value? (Use the appropriate table to determine the discount factor(s) and final answer to the nearest dollar amount.)

6.	What is the project profitability index for this project? (Use the appropriate table to determine the discount factor(s) and final answer to 2 decimal places.)

7.	What is the projects payback period? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

8.	What is the projects simple rate of return for each of the five years? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places. (i.e 0.1234 should be entered as 12.34.))

11.	If the equipments salvage value was $600,000 instead of $400,000, would you expect the project's net present value to be higher than, lower than, or the same?

12.	If the equipments salvage value was $600,000 instead of $400,000, what would be the projects simple rate of return? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places. (i.e 0.1234 should be entered as 12.34.))

13.

Assume a postaudit showed that all estimates (including total sales) were exactly correct except for the variable expense ratio, which actually turned out to be 45%. What was the projects actual net present value? (Negative amount should be indicated by a minus sign. Use the appropriate table to determine the discount factor(s), other intermediate calculations and final answer to the nearest whole dollar.)

14.	Assume a postaudit showed that all estimates (including total sales) were exactly correct except for the variable expense ratio, which actually turned out to be 45%. What was the projects actual payback period? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

15.	Assume a postaudit showed that all estimates (including total sales) were exactly correct except for the variable expense ratio, which actually turned out to be 45%. What was the projects actual simple rate of return? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places. (i.e 0.1234 should be entered as 12.34.))
