All analysis should be done in MS Excel, and a memo to your boss explaining the situation, your
analysis, and conclusion should be prepared in MS Word. You must upload both files to be graded.
You will only get full credit for the assignment if your analysis is correct, all calculations and/or formulas
use cell references, and your memo has the right content, flows well, and is properly formatted, and
grammatically correct. An example of a good memo, and an Excel template is provided for your benefit.
You can add or delete columns in the excel template as needed.
Playtan Corporation has a machine that either should be repaired or should be replaced soon.
You have recently been hired by Playtan and one of your assignments is to help decide whether
replacing the machine, or repairing it is in the best interest of your company.
Investment required for repairing the machine is only $500,000 and cost to replace the machine
is $3,000,000. Repairing the machine will cut down on the number of returns from customers
and increase cash flows, while replacing the machine may increase the number of units sold.
Playtan has evaluated and calculated additional cash flows that will be generated under the two
scenarios over the next five years as follows:
Year
Cash flow (if repaired)
Cash Flow (if replaced)
1
197,000
1,613,000
2
160,000
1,185,000

Playtan does not accept projects that will pay back in more than 3 years, or any projects that will not
maximize shareholder wealth. So, you will need to use all capital budgeting techniques you’ve learnt in
your Finance class to ensure that the right option is chosen.
Cost of capital for the project (repair or replacement) could be anywhere from 8% to 14%, so you will
conduct your analyses at various weighted average cost of capital (WACC) or Required rate of return
points including at least five at 8%, 9%, 11%, 13%, and 14% for both scenarios, and also draw an NPV
profile for both situation using your calculations.
Use your knowledge of capital budgeting and time value of money to decide which of the options is better
for Playtan. All analysis must be done in Excel. Your excel model should be such that it can be used by
Playtan or any other corporation for similar capital budgeting situations – so anyone can change any
numbers and use the model again. This would require all calculations to be using cell references and excel
functions. You must write a memo to your boss, explaining the situation, your analysis, and your
conclusion. You must also explain the drawbacks of your technique/s if there are any.
Make sure that all your submissions have your full name, class, and section number included.

Sales are 20% for cash and 80% on credit. All payments on credit sales are collected in the month following sale. The accounts receivable at December 31 are a result of December credit sales.
The company’s gross margin is 40% of sales. (In other words, cost of goods sold is 60% of sales.)
Monthly expenses are budgeted as follows: salaries and wages, $15,000 per month: advertising, $55,000 per month; shipping, 5% of sales; other expenses, 3% of sales. Depreciation, including depreciation on new assets acquired during the quarter, will be $42,100 for the quarter.
Each month’s ending inventory should equal 25% of the following month’s cost of goods sold.
One-half of a month’s inventory purchases is paid for in the month of purchase; the other half is paid in the following month.
During February, the company will purchase a new copy machine for $1,000 cash. During March, other equipment will be purchased for cash at a cost of $70,000.
During January, the company will declare and pay $45,000 in cash dividends.
