The Air Marshal Co. has recently completed a $10,000,000 two-year marketing study. Based on the results of this study, Air Marshal has estimated that 800 units of its new security electro-optical human scanning hardware, known as "Marshal Dillon," could be sold annually over the next 12 years, at a price of $110,000 the first year with an estimated 2% annual rise from inflation in years 2-6. The sales price is expected to drop to $90,000 in year 7 due to increasing competition with 2% annual increase for year 8-12. Variable costs per unit are $45,000 with an estimated 4% annual rise from inflation in years 2-12 and incremental cash fixed costs total $15 million per year all 12 years.
Start-up costs include $120 million to build production facilities and an additional $10,000,000 for shipping and installation costs, $25 million for land, and net operating working capital is projected to be 12% of next year sakes. The production facility will be depreciated on a straight-line basis to a value of zero over the twelve-year life of the project. At the end of the project's life, the facilities (including the land) will be sold for an estimated $25 million. The value of the land is not expected to change during this time period.
Finally, start up would also entail one-time tax-deductible cash expenses of $5 million at year zero. Air Marshal is an ongoing, profitable business and pays taxes at a 32% rate. Air Marshal has a 10% opportunity cost of capital for projects such as this one.
Be sure to answer to the following questions and express your numbers in millions of dollars where appropriate. If your annual income should be a loss, assume that tax could be saved from other profitable parts of the company.
