Quixotic Enterprises is about to embark on another venture. Poncho Sanchos, the faithful financial analyst, once again will examine the viability of this venture after $31$ failures.

A number of windmills are to be constructed on the southern frontier to generate electricity. They will cost $$422,000$ and will last $10$ years, at which time they will have an estimated salvage value of $$25,000.$ However, a capital upgrade of $$106,000$ will be required at the end of five years. An inventory of spare parts $($working capital$)$ amounting to $$10,000$ will be required during the term of the venture and will be housed in a warehouse that is currently not being used, but which has been used for Quixotic$$s previous ventures. The warehouse could be rented out at $$5,000$ per year.

This enterprise is expected to generate cash from the sale of electricity of $$151,000$ a year for $10$ years. Cash expenses for each of the $10$ years will be $$11,000.$

The company$$s tax rate is $26$ percent, the CCA rate is $5$ percent and the cost of capital is $25$ percent.
