We need someone to supply us with 225,000 cartons of machine screws per year to support its manufacturing needs over the next 7 years, and you've decided to bid on the contract. It will cost you $1,230,000 to install the equipment necessary to start production; you'll depreciate this cost straight-line to zero over the project's life. You estimate that in 7 years, this equipment can be salvaged for $75,000. Your fixed production costs will be $360,000 per year, and your variable production costs should be $13.20 per carton. You also need an initial investment in net working capital of $112,500, all of which will be recovered when the project ends. Your tax rate is 32 percent and you require a 13 percent return on your investment. What bid price per carton should you submit? $274,272.99 = [(P - $12.75)(225,000) - $360,000][1 - 0.32) + ($1,170,000/7)(0.32) What bid price per carton P = $15.79 answer Can someone explain where these numbers came from? OCF, Depreciation? Sales
