The "Toy World" is a leading producer of toys. The firm is considering a new line of product - the "Inside Out" toy set. The firm plans on a 3-year production. The firm will pay $70 to conduct the market analysis and determine the extent of customer demand for the new toy line. The new toy line will be produced in a building owned by the firm and located near Los Angeles. The building is currently leased out to another firm for $50 per year. The firm will buy new equipment to produce the new toy. The purchase price of the new equipment is $900, the shipping cost is $20, and the modification cost is $80. The new equipment follows a 5-year MACRS schedule. The estimated salvage value of this equipment is $250 at the end of project. The firm is expected to sell 350 units of new toy each year. The unit price is expected to be $12. There will be two types of non-depreciation operating costs: the total variable costs are expected to be 70% of sales and the fixed costs are expected to be $500 each year.

The working capital is expected to increase by $600 immediately at year 0, with the beginning working capital being zero. For year 1 and year 2, working capital will be equal to 10% of next year's sales revenue. At the end of the project, all working capital will be liquidated.
