After graduating UK with a major in finance, you have developed a brilliant new widget. You sell your widgets for $6. You need to buy a machine to produce your widgets. You are considering two machines: Machine A: Cost $2,000,000 Annual fixed cost per machine: $250,000; Variable cost per unit $1.40 Annual production capacity: 300,00 widgets (i.e., you cannot produce more than 300,000 widgets) Market life = 5 years; terminal (market) value =0 Machine B: Cost $6,000,000 Annual fixed cost...
1) Your company, International Widget Manufacturers, is headquartered in New Orleans, but is considering expanding its operations to the west coast. It will cost $10 million to build a plant in California to make widgets, but if you do, you will be able to sell 1.5 million widgets per year for the next ten years. The project ends at that time. During the first year, your widgets will be priced at $1.00 each. They will cost 30 cents each to...
10.00 points Tulip Company is made up of two divisions: A and B. Division A produces a widget that Division B uses in the production of its product. Variable cost per widget is $1.55; full cost is $2.80. Comparable widgets sell on the open market for $3.30 each. Division A can produce up to 3.00 million widgets per year but is currently operating at only 50 percent capacity. Division Bexpects to use 150,000 widgets in the current year Required: 1....
You own a factory that can produce up to 1M widgets per year. Each widget costs $1.50 to produce. The market price of a widget will be either $2.50 (good economy) or $1.75 (bad economy) next year. All production, costs, and revenues occur at the end of the year. If you can wait until the end of the year to decide to produce or not, construct the set of possible payoffs at time 1 of the factory. NOTE: Do not...

23 24 25 Suppose that you have $14,000 to invest and you are trying to decide between investing in project A or project B. If you invest in project A, you will receive a payment of $16,500 at the end of 2 years. If you invest in project B, you will receive a payment of $25,000 at the end of 11 years. Assume the annual interest rate is 5 percent and that both projects carry no risk. Instructions: Round your...
Tulip Company is made up of two divisions: A and B. Division A produces a widget that Division B uses in the production of its product. Variable cost per widget is $1.30; full cost is $2.10. Comparable widgets sell on the open market for $2.70 each. Division A can produce up to 2.50 million widgets per year but is currently operating at only 50 percent capacity. Division B expects to use 125,000 widgets in the current year. Required: 1. Determine...
You purchase a widget-making machine that can produce $4,000 worth of widgets each year for up to four years. However, there is a 15% chance that the machine will break entirely at the end of each year after the cash for that year has been produced. (This is roughly the process describing how incandescent light bulbs burn out, too.) What is the expected NPV of this widget machine? Assume a 10.9% discount factor, applicable beginning with the first $4,000. ___________________...
One year ago, your company purchased a machine used in manufacturing for $120,000. You have learned that a new machine is available that offers many advantages; you can purchase it for $200,000 today. It will be depreciated on a straight-line basis over 5 years, after which it has no salvage value. You expect that the new machine will produce EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization) of $100,000 per year for the next 5 years. The current machine is...
