Tico Las TIUW Sensitivity analysis and scenario analysis O RID = $500, on & Initial anu - 49 Introduction Canyon Buff Corp. has developed a new construction chemical that greatly improves the durability and weatherability of cement-based materials. After spending $500,000 on the research of the potential market for the new chemical, Canyon Buff is considering a project that requires an initial investment of $9,000,000 in manufacturing equipment. - Deprecahon The equipment must be purchased before the chemical production can begin. For tax purposes, the equipment is subject to a 5-year straight-line depreciation schedule, with a projected zero salvage value. For simplicity, however, we will continue to assume that the asset can actually be used out into the indefinite future (i.e., the actual useful life is effectively infinite). Canyon Buff anticipates that the sales will be $30,000,000 in the first year (Year 1). They sa expect that sales will initially grow at an annual rate of 6% until the end of sixth year.

You need to figure out how to construct the pro forma income statements and calculate the incremental unlevered net income. You should include ONLY the factors that will affect your capital budgeting decision. Revise the template if necessary. Note that your analysis should be set up so the assumptions that impact the cash flow estimates can be easily changed to identify the sensitivity of your calculations to these assumptions. There are three sheets in the template. Use the worksheet NPV" for questions 1 to 4, and the other two sheets for questions 5 and 6. Submit your Excel spreadsheet through blackboard. Clearly show your work so that I can trace your numbers. Questions 1. Use Excel to construct six-year pro forma income statements and calculate the incremental unlevered net income for the first six years. 2. Calculate six-year projections for free cash flows. Remember to include cash flows from the income statement and depreciation, changes in net working capital, and capital expenditures or dispositions. Hint: You need to calculate the level of net working capital (NWC) and change in NWC. Pay attention to the timing of NWC. 3. Canyon Buff expects that free cash flow from Year 6 onwards will increase at a onstant rate of 2%/year into the indefinite future. Caleulate PV(terminal value that captures the value of future free cash flows in Year 6 and beyond). That is, calculate the terminal value first, then find its value in Year 0 (today). Hint: We went over this in Lecture Note 6, so let me briefly review the key points: a. Assuming the cash flows grow at a constant rate g after Year N+1, then Year N TV-(Year N+1 CF)/(r-g) (from growing perpetuity formula). where r is discount rate b. We should discount this Terminal Value back to Year 0. 4. Determine the NPV of the project. Remember to net out any initial cash outflows. 5.
