Question

You are considering a new product launch. The project will cost $920,000, have a 4-year life, and have no salvage value; depreciation is straight-line to zero. Sales are projected at 580 units per year; price per unit will be $19,400, variable cost per unit will be $16,100, and fixed costs will be $980,000 per year. The required return on the project is 14 percent, and the relevant tax rate is 25 percent.

  

a.

The unit sales, variable cost, and fixed cost projections given above are probably accurate to within ±10 percent. What are the upper and lower bounds for these projections? What is the base-case NPV? What are the best-case and worst-case scenarios? (A negative amount should be indicated by a minus sign. Do not round intermediate calculations and round your NPV answers to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)

	Scenario Upper bound Lower bound Unit sales 638 522 units Variable cost per unit $17,710 $14,490 Fixed costs $1,078,000 $882,000

^^^ Those are the answers of the first part of part a, I just need the chart below for a, and then b and c

	Scenario NPV Base-case Best-case Worst-case

b.	Calculate the sensitivity of your base-case NPV to changes in fixed costs. (A negative amount should be indicated by a minus sign. Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 3 decimal places, e.g., 32.161.)

c.	What is the accounting break-even level of output for this project? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)

	b. ΔNPV/ΔFC c. Accounting break-even units

NOTE: b is NOT 6.34, and c is NOT 296.96
