Bauer Industries is a truck manufacturer. Management is currently evaluating a proposal to develop a new truck model. The company decided to start targeting urban females as potential truck owners. The life of this project is estimated at 3 years. Management has calculated that the costs of building another factory line equal $60,000,000, which will be depreciated using a straight line schedule over 10 years. The company will incur design and engineering costs of another $5,000,000 in year 0. The manufacturer expects a working capital contribution of $15,000,000 to build necessary inventory in year 0. Bauer expects to sell 6,000 trucks at a wholesale price of $60,000 in year 1. Revenue is expected to increase by 15% year-over-year in following years. Costs of goods sold are estimated at 40% of truck sales. Selling, general and administrative expenses equal to 20% of truck sales every year. Assume the tax rate of 35% and cost of capital of 10%. Hint: do not include depreciation in years 4 through 10 in the calculation of project’s NPV.
E. Bauer estimated that 3% of the customers potentially interested in purchasing one of the existing truck models will buy a new truck instead. On average, Bauer sells 50,000 trucks for a wholesale price of $55,000. Assume cost of goods sold is estimated at 40% of truck sales. Calculate the NPV of this project
F. Assume that after the life of the project Bauer plans to liquidate the factory line and estimates the proceeds to be around $25,000,000. Calculate the NPV of this project

WWC arranges with Kit Kat to convert the $1,700 balance to a note, and Kit Kat signs a 6-month note, at 12% annual interest. The principal and all interest will be due and payable to WWC on August 1, 2012. |
| 02/02 |
WWC paid a $600 insurance premium covering the month of February. The amount paid is recorded directly as an expense. |
| 02/05 |
An additional 130 units of inventory are purchased on account by WWC for $9,750 – terms 2/15, n30. |

| 02/17 |

| 02/18 | Wrote off a customer’s account in the amount of $1,100. |
| 02/19 |
$3,000 of rent for January and February was paid. Because all of the rent will soon expire, the February portion of the payment is charged directly to expense. |

44.The Suds Corporation has just suffered significant losses of revenue for three quarters in a row, and the shareholders are furious. Much of the loss can be attributed to the board's decision to change from their traditional lager beer to a lighter and smoother brew. Unfortunately, the new recipe alienated current customers and failed to bring in new customers. Although Suds has announced that it will return to its original product, the shareholders are claiming the board violated its fiduciary duty of care, and they are suing the directors personally for their significant losses. What must the shareholders prove to win their lawsuit? What defense is available to the directors, and what must they prove to prevail?
