During the past year, Stacy McGill planted a new vineyard on 150
acres of land that she leases for $30,120 a year. She has asked
you, as her accountant, to assist her in determining the value of
her vineyard operation.
The vineyard will bear no grapes for the first 5 years (1–5). In
the next 5 years (6–10), Stacy estimates that the vines will bear
grapes that can be sold for $62,250 each year. For the next 20
years (11–30), she expects the harvest will provide annual revenues
of $112,900. But during the last 10 years (31–40) of the vineyard’s
life, she estimates that revenues will decline to $73,490 per
year.
During the first 5 years, the annual cost of pruning, fertilizing,
and caring for the vineyard is estimated at $9,260; during the
years of production, 6–40, these costs will rise to $12,550 per
year. The relevant market rate of interest for the entire period is
5%. Assume that all receipts and payments are made at the end of
each year.
