You are a manager at Percolated Fibre, which is considering expanding its operations in synthetic fibre manufacturing. Your boss comes into your office, drops a consultant's report on your desk, and complains, "We owe these consultants $1.6 million for this report, and I am not sure their analysis makes sense. Before we spend the $18.5 million on new equipment needed for this project, look it over and give me your opinion." You open the report and find the following estimates (in millions of dollars): Click on the Icon located on the top-right corner of the data table below in order to copy its information into a spreadsheet. All of the estimates in the report seem correct. You note that the consultants used straight-line depreciation for the new equipment that will be purchased today (year 0 ), which is what the accounting department recommended. They also calculated the depreciation assuming no salvage value for the equipment, which is the company's assumption in this case. The report concludes that because the project will increase earnings by $5.509 million per year for ten years, the project is worth $55.09 million. You think back to your glory days in finance class and realise there is more work to be done! First, you note that the consultants have not factored in the fact that the project will require $7.2 million in net working capital up front (year 0 ), which will be fully recovered in year 10 . Next, you see they have attributed $1.480 million of selling, general and administrative expenses to the project, but you know that $0.740 million of this amount is overhead that will be incurred even if the project is not accepted. Finally, you know that accounting earnings are not the right thing to focus on! a. Given the available information, what are the free cash flows in years 0 to 10 that should be used to evaluate the proposed project? b. If the cost of capital for this project is 12%, what is your estimate of the value of the new project? a. The free cash flow for year 0 is $ million. (Round to three decimal places.) The free cash flow for years 1 to 9 is $ million. (Round to three decimal places.) The free cash flow for year 10 is $ million. (Round to three decimal places.) b. If the cost of capital for this project is 12%, the value of project is $ million. (Round to three decimal places.) You accept the project. (Choose the best answer from the drop down menu.)
