We are evaluating a project that costs $604,000, has an eight-year life, and has no salvage value. Assume that depreciation is straight-line to zero over the life of the project. Sales are projected at $55,000 units per year. Price per unit is $36, variable cost per unit is $17, and fixed costs are $685,000 per year. The tax rate is 21 percent, and we require a return of 15 percent on this project.
