Question - We are evaluating a project that costs $2,220,000, has a 8-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 94,700 units per year. Price per unit is $39.03, variable cost per unit is $24.10, and fixed costs are $869,000 per year. The tax rate is 23 percent, and we require a return of 11 percent on this project.
a. Calculate the base-case operating cash flow and NPV.
b. What is the sensitivity of NPV to changes in the sales figure?
c. If there is a 300-unit decrease in projected sales, how much would the NPV change?
d. What is the sensitivity of OCF to changes in the variable cost figure?
e. If there is a $1 decrease in estimated variable costs, how much would the OCF change?
