The following information deals with considerations regarding a new product. If the product in question is to be manufactured, it will be necessary to build a new production line, which will require the following capital investments: Injection molding machine: RM2.7 million Molds: RM2.7 million Vision system: RM1.7 million Automation equipment: RM4.7 million Interior furnishings, etc.: RM1.7 million

Assume the company's MARR is 15% per year.

1) In the foregoing, the investment is estimated based on a life of 5 years. However, after the fifth year, parts of the production line are expected to be used in the construction of new production lines, and therefore they will continue to have value: Injection molding machine: RM1.0 million Vision system: RM1.0 million. Automation equipment: RM2.0 million.

Estimate the investments internal rate of return.

2) Determine the net present value of the investment if taking into account the value that the three parts of the production line as in above (Question 1) are expected to have after the 5 years.
