Your venture would consist of new product introductions (called Project I) you estimate that your product will have a 6-year lifespan and the equipment used to manufacture the project falls into the MACRS 5-year class. Your venture would require a capital investment of $15,000,000 in equipment, plus $2,000,000 in installation cost. The venture would also require an initial investment in accounts receivables and inventories of $4,000,000. At the end of the 6-year lifespan of the venture, you can estimate that the equipment could be sold at a $4,000,000-salvage value.

Your venture, which is management risky, would increase the fixed cost by a constant $1,000,000 per year, while the variable cost of the venture would equal 30% of revenues. You are projecting that revenues generated by project would equal $5,000,000 in year 1, $10,000,000 in year 2, $14,000,000 in year 3, $16,000,000 in year 4, $12,000,000 in year 5 and $8,000,000 in year 6.
