September 8, 2015 at 8:02 pm #270519Hi
I just checked the question out and I see what you mean! There isn’t even any kind of useful economic life of any machinery that we could have used as the basis for the project life… So I’m kinda stumped too.September 8, 2015 at 8:04 pm #270520This is the question right?:
CJ Co is considering an investment project, as follows. Project A This project is an expansion of existing business costing $3.5 million, payable at the start of the project, which will increase annual sales by 750,000 units. Information on unit selling price and costs is as follows: Selling price: $2.00 per unit (current price terms) Selling costs: $0.04 per unit (current price terms) Variable costs: $0.80 per unit (current price terms) Selling price inflation and selling cost inflation are expected to be 5% per year and variable cost inflation is expected to be 4% per year. Additional initial investment in working capital of $250,000 will also be needed and this is expected to increase in line with general inflation. Other information CJ Co has a nominal weighted average after-tax cost of capital of 10% and pays profit tax one year in arrears at an annual rate of 30%. The company can claim tax-allowable depreciation on a 25% reducing balance basis on the initial investment. General rate of inflation: 4.5% per year
Required Calculate the net present value of Project A and advise on its acceptability if the project were to be appraised using this method.September 8, 2015 at 8:12 pm #270521Hey if you look at the original question in the December 2010 exam… Last paragraph… They mention the four years there.
