ABC company is considering producing a new range of smartphones that will require it to build a new factory. Feasibility studies have been done on the factory which cost $5 million. The studies have found the following:

1. The factory will cost $25 million and will have a useful life of 20 years.

2. The land where the factory will go is currently used as a carpark for workers and it is assumed that the company will have to pay $200000 per year for their workers to park in a nearby carpark.

3. The factory will be depreciated on a straight line basis and will have a salvage value of $0 but it is believed that most of it can be sold for scrap after 20 years for $50000.

4. Due to the nature of the business they are in, they will have to perform some environmental tests to make sure that some of the chemicals they are using are not entering the ground water around the factory. These tests will be performed every 5 years and cost $625000.

5. Through the building of this factory and the selling of the phones it produces, it’s revenue will increase by $5 million in year 1 and remain at this level for the operational life of the factory.

6. The extra costs that the company accrues per year due to the project are $435000 for labour, $50000 for overhead like power and water bills and marketing costs for the new line of phones will be $500000 per year but will decrease by $15000 per year as the phone gains greater penetration.

7. The company’s current cost of capital is 8% per year.

8. The tax rate is 30%.

9. The project requires an initial investment in working capital of $1000000 that is returned in year 20.

Problem 10-07 (Algorithmic)

Aggie Power Generation supplies electrical power to residential customers for many U.S. cities. Its main power generation plants are located in Los Angeles, Tulsa, and Seattle. The following table shows Aggie Power Generation's major residential markets, the annual demand in each market (in megawatts or MWs), and the cost to supply electricity to each market from each power generation plant (prices are in $/MW).

1. If there are no restrictions on the amount of power that can be supplied by any of the power plants, what is the optimal solution to this problem? Which cities should be supplied by which power plants? What is the total annual power distribution cost for this solution? If required, round your answers to two decimal places.
