Modern Flooring is considering a new product line. The new line would require $134,000 of fixed assets and net working capital of $24,000. The firm will apply straight-line depreciation to a zero salvage value over three years. The new line is expected to produce an operating cash flow of $35,000 the first year with that amount decreasing by 10 percent annually for two years before the new line will be discontinued. The fixed assets can be sold for $25,000 at the end of the project and all net working capital will be recovered. What is the net present value of the new line at a discount rate of 11.5 percent and a tax rate of 35 percent

Answer:

-51,784

Explanation:

Net present value can be calculated by first calculating the present values of operating cash flows each year and the sum up all the present values.

Year                                    0                1             2              3

Net working capital     -24000                                       24000

PV Factor                           1               0.896     0.804      0.721

PV                                -158000        31390       25337     49488

NPV =  -158000  + 31390 + 25337  + 49488

NPV = -51,784

Year 3  =   1/(1.115)^3 = 0.721

The CEO would like to see higher sales and a forecasted net income of $1,000,000. Assume that operating costs (excluding depreciation and amortization) are 55% of sales and that depreciation and amortization increase by 6% and interest expenses will increase by 5%. The tax rate, which is 40%, will remain the same. (Note that while the tax rate remains constant, the taxes paid will change.) What level of sales would generate $1,000,000 in net income? If necessary, round your answer to the nearest dollar at the end of the calculations.
