2 Photochronograph Corporation (PC) manufactures time series photographic equipment. It is currently at its target debt-equity ratio of 75. It's considering building a new $71 million manufacturing facility. This new plant is expected to generate aftertax cash flows of $7.9 million in perpetuity. The company raises all equity from outside financing. There are three financing options: 6.67 points Skipped 1. A new issue of common stock: The flotation costs of the new common stock would be 6.8 percent of the amount raised. The required return on the company's new equity is 14 percent. eBook Print 2. A new issue of 20-year bonds: The flotation costs of the new bonds would be 2.5 percent of the proceeds. If the company issues these new bonds at an annual coupon rate of 5 percent, they will sell at par. References 3. Increased use of accounts payable financing: Because this financing is part of the company's ongoing daily business, it has no flotation costs, and the company assigns it a cost that is the same as the overall firm WACC. Management has a target ratio of accounts payable to long-term debt of .15. (Assume there is no difference between the pretax and aftertax accounts payable cost.) What is the NPV of the new plant? Assume that PC has a 24 percent tax rate. (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer in dollars, not millions, rounded to the nearest whole dollar amount, e.g., 1,234,567.)
