We are evaluating a project that costs $727,000, has an 12-year life, and has no salvage value. Assume that depreciation is straight-line to zero over the life of the project. Sales are projected at 150,000 units per year. Price per unit is $38, variable cost per unit is $22, and fixed costs are $740,086 per year. The tax rate is 33 percent, and we require a 16 percent return on this project.

Requirement 1: Break-Even

(a)	Calculate the accounting break-even point. (Do not round your intermediate calculations.)
	(Click to select) 48,255 units 50,042 units 48,942 units 46,255 units 51,042 units

(b)	What is the degree of operating leverage at the accounting break-even point? (Do not round your intermediate calculations.)

Requirement 2: Base-Case & NPV Sensitivity

(a)	Calculate the base-case operating cash flow. (Do not round your intermediate calculations.)
	(Click to select) $1,132,135 $537,780 $1,112,135 $1,152,135 $527,780

(b)	Calculate the base-case NPV. (Do not round your intermediate calculations.)
	(Click to select) $527,780 $5,156,826 $5,146,826 $537,780 $5,166,826

(c)	What is the sensitivity/elasticity of NPV to changes in the sales figure? Recall from your economics class that an elasticity measures a percentage change in one variable due to a percentage change in another. So simply increase sales quantity by 1 percent, calculate the new NPV, and then calculate the percentage change in the NPV. (Do not round your intermediate calculations.)
	(Click to select) 1.621 55.613 34.685 4.421 55.813

(d)	Based on this sensitivity, what is the change in NPV (in dollars) if there is a 11 percent decrease in projected sales? (Do not round your intermediate calculations.)
	(Click to select) $526,780 $919,264 -$-387 -$919,264 -$527,780

Requirement 3: Sensitivity of OCF

(a)	In addition to NPV, we can calculate the sensitivity of other things, such as OCF. What is the sensitivity of base-case OCF to changes in the variable cost? Estimate the sensitivity by increasing variable costs by 10%. (Do not round your intermediate calculations.)
	(Click to select) -1.95 -1,020 32,980 -25,002 980

(b)	Based on this sensitivity, estimate the change in OCF (in dollars) given a 12% decrease in the variable costs? (Do not round your intermediate calculations.)
