Use the following information for Question 4:
The staff of Porter Manufacturing has estimated the following net after-tax cash flows and probabilities for a new manufacturing process:
Line 0 gives the cost of the process, Lines 1 through 5 give operating cash flows, and Line 5* contains the estimated salvage values. Porter's cost of capital for an average-risk project is 10%.
Net After-Tax Cash Flows
Year P = 0.2 P = 0.6 P = 0.2
0 -$100,000 -$100,000 -$100,000
1 20,000 30,000 40,000
2 20,000 30,000 40,000
3 20,000 30,000 40,000
4 20,000 30,000 40,000
5 20,000 30,000 40,000
5* 0 20,000 30,000
