The project will require an immediate capital expenditure of $900,000 which will be fully expended this year as is now allowable under the new tax law. Our company estimates that the revenues from this project will be $500,000 during the first year and that the revenues will grow at a rate of 10% per year. Variable cost are expected to be 30% of revenues each year, and fixed cost are expected to be $15,000 per year.
