They are considering a project where they will sell to the public the coffee makers that they use in their stores.

The chief marketing officer (CMO) estimates that they will sell 5,000 units a year for 5 years at a price of $125 each. The chief operations officer (C00) estimates that the variable costs to build these will be 65% of revenue. The COO says the company will need to buy an assembly line to make these. The assembly line costs $550,000 and has a shipping cost of $30,000. The COO adds that they will need to purchase an additional $50,000 in inventory and accounts payable will increase by $17.000.
