Beats wants to build a new factory to produce its headphones. It
will cost $230 million initially to build the factory over the
course of 12 months, which will be worthless after 10 years. The
factory will be depreciated linearly to $0 over 10 years. Beats
already owns the land on which the factory will be built. The land
is currently worth $10 million and was purchased for $2 million
eight years ago. After completion of the factory at the end of year
1, Beats expects earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) of $34
million each year for 10 years. The company also has to add
inventory (components) worth $13 million just before operation
starts at the end of the first year. Beat's marginal tax rate is
21% and its cost of capital is 6%.
