You are analyzing a proposal to build a new plant. Use the following information, a cost of capital of 14%, a capital gains tax rate of 5%, and an income tax rate of 40%. Land for the plant will be purchased today for $500. At the beginning of the second year (one year from today), $1,000 will be spent for the construction of the building. The equipment will be purchased at the beginning of the third year at a cost of $1,500. Operations will begin at the beginning of the fourth year, at which time a working capital investment of $500 will be required. Cash flows from operations will occur for 10 years and will be received at the end of each year. The building construction cost and the equipment will be depreciated on a straight-line basis, with zero expected salvage for each. Assume that you can't depreciate the building and equipment until you use them in operations. After 10 years of operation, you expect to sell the land for $600. Annual incremental revenue will be $2,000 for the first 5 years of operation, and $2,500 for the last 5 years of operation. Fixed operating costs (excluding depreciation) will be $200 each year. Annual variable operating costs will be 25% of annual revenue. The building and equipment both qualify for a 10% investment tax credit that can be received at the time each is purchased. This investment tax credit will not affect the amount you can depreciate.

Robin Hood and his Merry Men are now in trouble because wealthy travelers (their source of revenue) are avoiding the forest. As is often common in an entrepreneurial organization, the Merry Men were highly motivated by Robin Hood’s leadership. Therefore, Robin had previously relied on informal communication to organize and implement operations. Robin is pleased with the growing size and influence of his organization. However, growth has meant that specialized duties have begun taking up most of the men’s time, leaving a command vacuum between Robin and the first line recruits. In addition, they are now all located in a large encampment that can be seen for miles. This creates the probability of a surprise attack on their position. Growth has also put great pressures on resources, so now they must harvest the forest more thoroughly. Where will additional revenue come from? Rich travelers are avoiding the forest, so in desperation Robin is considering robbing the poorer travelers, which means his lieutenants must now tell their men to rob their brothers and fathers. What started as a rebellion is in danger of being routinized into banditry. Robin must therefore begin to evaluate the Merry Men’s mission in view of the changing environment.

  1. What business is Robin Hood’s organization in?

  2. What strategic problems does Robin Hood have?

  3. What issues need to be addressed?

  4. What decisions need to be made?

  5. What strategy should Robin Hood implement?
