SLI3 Company is planning to invest in a project to produce motorboat fuel. The cost of equipment would be $6.5 million and the installation cost would be $0.48 million. The equipment has an estimated life of five years and a salvage value of $1.5 million. The equipment would be depreciated at 4% per year for tax purposes.

Starting production with this equipment requires additional investment of $3,217,000 for inventories with incremental accounts receivable of $2,362,000 and accounts payable of $9,000. In order to analyse the prospective demand for this new motorboat fuel in the market, the management has spent $35,000 for marketing purposes. On getting significant positive responses, the management has decided to go for production.

Expected sales would be $5 million in the first year and that will grow by 10% each year until the 5th year. The company will change the product line after 5 years. Costs have been estimated to be 41% of sales revenue. If the project is started, the companys regular net earnings of $78.7,000 per year from technical service would be stopped and annual interest expense will increase from $6,000 to $9,000.

It is also expected that the introduction of this motorboat fuel will increase annual sales of the companys parts by $63,000 (and that requires 60% costs on sale). The cost of capital is 11.8 percent and 34% tax rate is applicable.
