ABC Learning Limited considers selling new diagnostic products and it has the following estimates for this new project: price=$567 per unit, variable costs=$200 per unit, fixed costs=$6,795,000, quantity=60,000 units. By adding the new diagnostic product, management estimates that they will decrease the sales of existing products by 25,000 units per year. The existing products sell for $720 per unit and the variable cost per unit is $250. ABC Learning Limited has spent about $170,000 for a marketing study, and about $330,000 on research and development for the new diagnostic products. The initial investment required is $6,600,000 in fixed assets, and these assets can be depreciated straight-line to zero. These assets are considered to have a 6-year life time, but be noted that the ABC Learning management has decided to look at a 3-year project time frame because of future developments in diagnostic products. ABC Learning Limited expects that in 3 years the equipment can be sold for about 30% of its acquisition cost. The new project will require $300,000 of net working capital at the start of the project, which is recoverable at the end of the project. ABC Learning currently has $4,000,000 of liabilities on the 4.5% of interest rate p.a. The company tax rate is 30%.
