The company has spent a further $250,400 for a marketing study to determine the expected sales figures for the new baby doll. Fun Toys can manufacture the new baby dolls for $21 each in variable costs. Fixed costs for the operation are estimated to run $2.3 million per year. The estimated sales volume is 165,000, 198,000, 122,500, 75,500, and 48,500 per year for the next five years, respectively. The unit price of the new baby doll will be $98. The necessary equipment can be purchased for $26 million and will be depreciated on a seven-year MACRS schedule. It is believed the value of the equipment in five years will be $8.7 million. As previously stated, Fun Toys currently manufactures a baby doll. Production of the existing model is expected to be terminated in two years. If Fun Toys does not introduce the new baby doll, sales will be 85,000 units and 63,000 units for the next two years, respectively. The price of the existing baby doll is $68 per unit, with variable costs of $19 each and fixed costs of $1.6 million per year. If Fun Toys does introduce the new baby doll, sales of the existing baby doll will fall by 2 3,000 units per year, and the price of the existing units will have to be lowered to $48 each. Net working capital for the baby dolls will be 22 percent of sales and will occur with the timing of the cash flows for the year; for example, there is no initial outlay for NWC, but changes in NWC will first occur in Year 1 with the first year's sales. Toyland Toys has a 21 percent corporate tax rate. The company has a target debt to equity ratio of .6 and is currently BB rated. The overall cost of capital of the company is 12 percent. The finance department of the company has asked your team to prepare a report to Nathan, the company's CEO, and the report should answer the following questions.
