Aramark is considering a 3-year project with an initial cost of $570,000. The project will not directly produce any sales but will reduce operating costs by $147,000 a year. The equipment is classified as MACRS 7-year property. The MACRS table values are .1429, .2449, .1749, .1249, .0893, .0892, .0893, and .0446 for Years 1 to 8, respectively. At the end of the project, the equipment will be sold for an estimated $295,000. The tax rate is 25 percent and the required return is 12 percent. An extra $41,000 of inventory will be required for the life of the project. What is the total cash flow for Year 3? $459,738.50 $465,546.17 $476,218.44 $481,983.20 $488,549.26

A new edition of a very popular textbook will be published a year from now. The publisher currently has 1,000 copies on hand and is deciding whether to do another printing before the new edition comes out. The publisher estimates that demand for the book during the next year is governed by the probability distribution in the file P10_31.xlsx. (See Demand and Probability Table Below)A production run incurs a fixed cost of $15,000 plus a variable cost of $20 per book printed. Books are sold for $190 per book. Any demand that cannot be met incurs a penalty cost of $30 per book, due to loss of goodwill. Up to 1,000 of any leftover books can be sold to Barnes and Noble for $45 per book. The publisher is interested in maximizing expected profit. The following print-run sizes are under consideration: 0 (no production run) to 16,000 in increments of 2,000. What decision would you recommend? Use simulation with 1,000 replications.
