The lease of Theme Park, Inc., is about to expire. Management must decide whether to renew the lease for another 10 years or to relocate near the site of a proposed motel. The town planning board is currently debating the merits of granting approval to the motel. A consultant has estimated the net present value of Theme Park’s two alternatives under each state of nature as shown below. Suppose that the management of Theme Park, Inc., has decided that there is a 0.21 probability that the motel’s application will be approved.

a-1.
If management uses maximum expected monetary value as the decision criterion, calculate expected monetary value for the alternatives "Renew" and "Relocate"? (Omit the "$" sign in your response.)

a-2. Which alternative should it choose?

• Renew lease??

• Relocate??

c. If management has been offered the option of a temporary lease while the town planning board considers the motel’s application, would you advise management to sign the lease? The lease will cost $21,000. (Omit the "$" sign in your response.)

Yes  because the cost is less  than EVPI of $ ??? .

How have sports changed since the 1940s? Are some of the issues raised in the film still present?

Consider a city with three consumers: 1, 2, and 3. The city provides park land for the enjoyment of its residents. Parks are a public good, and the amount of park land (which is measured in acres) is denoted by z. The demands for park land for the three consumers are as follows:

D1 =40–z, D2 =30–z, D3 =20–z.

These formulas give the height of each consumer’s demand curve at a given level of z. Note that each demand curve cuts the horizontal axis, eventually becoming negative. For the problem to work out right, you must use this feature of the curves in deriving DΣ. In other words, don’t assume that the curves become horizontal once they hit the axis.

(a) The height of the DΣ curve at a given z is just the sum of the heights of the individual demands at that z. Using this fact, compute the expres- sion that gives the height up to the DΣ curve at each z.

(b) The cost of park land per acre, denoted by c, is 9 (like the demand intercepts, you can think of this cost as measured in thousands of dollars). Given the cost of park land, compute the socially optimal number of acres of park land in the city.

(c) Compute the level of social welfare at the optimal z. This is just the area of the surplus triangle between DΣ and the cost line.

(d) Suppose there are two other jurisdictions, each with three consum- ers, just like the given jurisdiction. Compute total social welfare in the three jurisdictions, assuming each chooses the same amount of park acres as the first jurisdiction.

(e) Now suppose the population is reorganized into three homoge- neous jurisdictions. The first has three type-1 consumers (i.e., high demanders). The second has three type-2 consumers (medium demand- ers), and the third has three type-3 consumers (low demanders). Repeat (a), (b), and (c) for each jurisdiction, finding the DΣ curve, the optimal number of park acres, and social welfare in each jurisdiction.

(f) Compute total social welfare by summing the social welfare results from (e) across jurisdictions. How does the answer compare with social welfare from (d)? On the basis of your answer, are homogeneous juris- dictions superior to the original mixed jurisdictions?

Pacific Hotels operates a centralized call center for the reservation needs of its hotels. Costs associated with use of the center are charged to the hotel group (luxury, resort, standard, and budget) based on the length of time of calls made (time usage). Idle time of the reservation agents, time spent on calls in which no reservation is made, and the fixed cost of the equipment are allocated based on the number of reservations made in each group. Due to recent increased competition in the hotel industry, the company has decided that it is necessary to better allocate its costs in order to price its services competitively and profitably. During the most recent period for which data are available, the use of the call center for each hotel group was as follows:

Division                                               Time Usage                              Number of Reservation

Luxury                                                  400                                                 120

Resort                                                   200                                                 150

Standard                                               800                                                 360

Budget                                                   600                                                 870

Call center costs for personnel $840,000

Call center costs for equipment $650,000

Determine the allocation to each of the divisions using the following:

1. A single rate based on time used.

2. Dual rates based on time used (for personnel costs) and number of reservations (for equipment and other cost).

Allocation based on time usage

Consider the following expansion capital budgeting problem.

A capital budgeting decision is being considered that would involve an expansion and simultaneous replacement of old equipment. The project is expected to have a 6 year life for the firm.

This project will replace some existing equipment which currently has a book value (BV) of $200k and an estimated market salvage value of $375k. The new project will require new equipment costing $2000k, which will be depreciated straight-line to a book value of $200k at the end of 6 years. Due to new energy efficient technology, replacing the old equipment with the new more efficient equipment will generate an immediate tax credit of 5% of the equipment’s cost. The expansion will require an additional investment in NWC of $200k.

Sales are expected to increase by $1000k the first year and grow by 15% in years 2 and 3, then by 5% annually during the remaining 6 year life. Cost of goods sold is forecasted to be 45% of the increased sales, and other selling and general administrative expenses are forecasted to be 10% of the increased sales.

It is forecasted that the new equipment will have a salvage value of $300k at the end of the project’s 6 year life.

The firm’s weighted average cost of capital (WACC) for projects of this risk level is 8%. The firm’s marginal tax rate is T = 40%.

Use the Excel template to complete the capital budgeting analysis. Your Excel analysis should clearly indicate the cash flow analysis timeline and should provide the project’s NPV, IRR, PBP, PI, and also illustrate the project’s NPV Profile.
