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.

People have been using Cameras for private daily use since the 1880s and the first Kodak camera cost a lot of money in those days. Today we wish to see if the size of the camera can be used to predict the cost. The data is given below:

Y = cost in dollars X = weight in ounces y {300, 250, 350, 400, 150, 180, 140, 300, 300, 200} X {6, 5, 7, 5, 6, 6, 4, 6, 6, 5} The following information is available for you to use in the analysis of this topic. n=10 x̄= 5.6 ȳ= 257 SSxy = 248 SSxx = 6.4 SSyy = 69010

Find the least squares prediction equation. a)Ŷ = -300 + 100X1 b)Ŷ = 0 + 50X1 c)Ŷ = 40 + 38.75X1 d)none of these

1. The Howell’s decided to build a resort hotel on land owned by Chief Ugundi. For each of the following items, indicate whether the cost should be recorded as Land (L), Land Improvements (LI), Resort Hotel (RH), or Equipment (E) by placing the correct answer in the space provided. Answer Fences around the property site cost $50,000 Construction of the resort hotel cost $5,000,000 Demolition of existing huts on the land cost $80,000 Installation of wooden sidewalks between the resort hotel and parking lot cost $40,000 Architectural fees for the resort hotel cost $30,000 A construction permit obtained from Chief Ugundi cost $20,000 Clearing the brush and removing unwanted trees on the site cost $60,000 Purchased a wagon to assist with hauling away trees and dirt for $25,000 The Professor charged $40,000 to act as engineer and architect on the resort hotel Constructing permanent tiki torches around the site as lighting cost $10,000 Landscaping (shrubs and decorative ornaments) around the resort cost $100,000 The actual purchase price for the land cost $200,000

1. Identify the various hidden costs mentioned in the article.

2. Identify a sunk cost trap in the article might be one or a couple.

Bonus: Identify other interesting concepts!

After years of offshore production, General Electric is moving much of its far-flung appliance-manufacturing operations back home. It is not alone. An exploration of the startling, sustainable, just-getting-started return of industry to the United States.

For much of the past decade, General Electric’s storied Appliance Park, in Louisville, Kentucky, appeared less like a monument to American manufacturing prowess than a memorial to it.

The very scale of the place seemed to underscore its irrelevance. Six factory buildings, each one the size of a large suburban shopping mall, line up neatly in a row. The parking lot in front of them measures a mile long and has its own traffic lights, built to control the chaos that once accompanied shift change. But in 2011, Appliance Park employed not even a tenth of the people it did in its heyday. The vast majority of the lot’s spaces were empty; the traffic lights looked forlorn.

In 1951, when General Electric designed the industrial park, the company’s ambition was as big as the place itself; GE didn’t build an appliance factory so much as an appliance city. Five of the six factory buildings were part of the original plan, and early on Appliance Park had a dedicated power plant, its own fire department, and the first computer ever used in a factory. The facility was so large that it got its own ZIP code (40225). It was the headquarters for GE’s appliance division, as well as the place where just about all of the appliances were made.

By 1955, Appliance Park employed 16,000 workers. By the 1960s, the sixth building had been built, the union workforce was turning out 60,000 appliances a week, and the complex was powering the explosion of the U.S. consumer economy.

The arc that followed is familiar. Employment kept rising through the ’60s, but it peaked at 23,000 in 1973, 20 years after the facility first opened. By 1984, Appliance Park had fewer employees than it did in 1955. In the midst of labor battles in the early ’90s, GE’s iconic CEO, Jack Welch, suggested that it would be shuttered by 2003. GE’s current CEO, Jeffrey Immelt, tried to sell the entire appliance business, including Appliance Park, in 2008, but as the economy nosed over, no one would take it. In 2011, the number of time-card employees—the people who make the appliances—bottomed out at 1,863. By then, Appliance Park had been in decline for twice as long as it had been rising.

Yet this year, something curious and hopeful has begun to happen, something that cannot be explained merely by the ebbing of the Great Recession, and with it the cyclical return of recently laid-off workers. On February 10, Appliance Park opened an all-new assembly line in Building 2—largely dormant for 14 years—to make cutting-edge, low-energy water heaters. It was the first new assembly line at Appliance Park in 55 years—and the water heaters it began making had previously been made for GE in a Chinese contract factory.

On March 20, just 39 days later, Appliance Park opened a second new assembly line, this one in Building 5, to make new high-tech French-door refrigerators. The top-end model can sense the size of the container you place beneath its purified-water spigot, and shuts the spigot off automatically when the container is full. These refrigerators are the latest versions of a style that for years has been made in Mexico.
