We are evaluating a project that costs $660,000, has a five-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 69,000 units per year. Price per unit is $58, variable cost per unit is $38, and fixed costs are $660,000 per year. The tax rate is 35 percent, and we require a 12 percent return on this project.
a. Calculate the accounting break-even point. (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your final answer to nearest whole number. (e.g., 32))
Break-even point = 39600 units
b-1 Calculate the base-case cash flow and NPV. (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your NPV answers to 2 decimal places. (e.g., 32.16))
Cash flow = $ 514200
NPV = $ 1193578
b-2 What is the sensitivity of NPV to changes in the sales figure? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your final answer to 3 decimal places. (e.g., 32.161)) ΔNPV/ΔQ $
??
c. What is the sensitivity of OCF to changes in the variable cost figure? (Do not round intermediate calculations and Negative amount should be indicated by a minus sign.) ΔOCF/ΔVC $
