  1. Determine Cash Flows

    Natural Foods Inc. is planning to invest in new manufacturing equipment to make a new garden tool. The new garden tool is expected to generate additional annual sales of 5,000 units at $18 each. The new manufacturing equipment will cost $120,000 and is expected to have a 10-year life and a $17,000 residual value. Selling expenses related to the new product are expected to be 3% of sales revenue. The cost to manufacture the product includes the following on a per-unit basis:

    Direct labor $ 2.50
    Direct materials 3.20
    Fixed factory overhead—depreciation 2.40
    Variable factory overhead 0.90
       Total $9.00

    Determine the net cash flows for the first year of the project, Years 2–9, and for the last year of the project. Use the minus sign to indicate cash outflows. Do not round your intermediate calculations but, if required, round your final answers to the nearest dollar.

    Feedback

    For Year 1, subtract the amount to be invested from the operating cash flows (annual revenues less selling expenses less cost to manufacture). For Years 2-10, subtract the selling expenses and the costs to manufacture from the annual revenues. For Year 10 only, add the residual value.
