Stuart Rentals can purchase a van that costs $105,000; it has an expected useful life of three years and no salvage value. Stuart uses straight-line depreciation. Expected revenue is $52,220 per year. Assume that depreciation is the only expense associated with this investment. Required a. Determine the payback period. (Round your answer to 1 decimal place.) b. Determine the unadjusted rate of return based on the average cost of the investment. (Round your answer to 1 decimal place. (i.e., .234 should be entered as 23.4).) a. Payback period years b. Unadjusted rate of return %
An investment under consideration has a payback of seven years and a cost of $870,000. Assume the cash flows are conventional. If the required return is 11 percent, what is the worst-case NPV? (A negative amount should be indicated by a minus sign. Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.) Answer is complete but not entirely correct. Worst-case NPV $ 3,270,444.91 ×

Percentages need to be entered in decimal format, for instance 3% would be entered as .03. Golden State Bakers, Inc. (GSB) has an opportunity to invest in a new dough machine. GSB needs more productive capacity, so the new machine will not replace an existing machine. The new machine is priced at $260,000 and will require modifications costing $15,000. The machine has an expected useful life of 10 years, will be depreciated using the MACRS method over its 5-year class life, and has an expected salvage value of $12,500 at the end of Year 10. (See Table 10A.2 for MACRS recovery allowance percentages on page 184 in the textbook.) The machine will require a $22,500 investment in net working capital (NWC). The machine is expected to generate additional sales revenues of $125,000 per year, but its use also will increase annual cash operating expenses by $55,000. GSB's required rate of return is 10%, and its marginal tax rate is 40%. The machine's book value at the end of Year 10 be…
