An oil company is drilling a series of new wells on the perimeter of a producing oil field. About 40% of the new wells will be dry. Even if a new well strikes oil, there is still uncertainty about the amount of oil produced: 30% of new wells which strike oil produce only 3,000 barrels a week; 70% produce 40,000 barrels a week. (a) Forecast the annual revenues from a new perimeter well. Use a future oil price of $100...

Suppose an oil company is considering whether to develop production facilities for a newly discovered oil field on lands owned by a state government. If the firm spends $2 billion in present value in capital costs, it could install facilities capable of producing 80,000 barrels per day. Annual operating costs for the oil field are anticipated to be $30 per barrel produced. The company expects production from the field to start at 80,000 barrels per day but then decline at...

Problem 2 (25 points) Suppose that an oil well is expected to produce 100,000 barrels (BBL) of oil during its first year of production. However, its subsequent production (or yield) is expected to decrease by 12% over the previous year's production for each year of production over the 7-year project. The oil well has proven reserves to satisfy the project requirements. The price of oil is expected to start at $120 per barrel during the first year and increase 8.5%...

Swift Oil Company is considering investing in a new oil well. It is expected that the oil well will increase annual revenues by $130,000 and will increase annual expenses by $70,000 including depreciation. The oil well will cost $490,000 and will have a $10,000 salvage value at the end of its 10-year useful life. Calculate the annual rate of return.
