Becky Are you able to post a definitive answer to this please? By my reckoning we have NPV answers corresponding to: 3.4m; 5.1m; 6.2m; 9.2m; 10.7m; and 0.45m?! Thanks in advance Peter

Hello Krishnan 1) I was wondering if you explain why the cost increase in working capital of 1.4m has been added to your Y9 cash flow [ 8.4 m less (2.52m of tax) to give 5.88 plus 1.4m =7.28m]? Best Regards Peter

well i agree with this the taxable anount should be 6*0.3mm

Yes. NPV: USD 3.4 Mln. Pls see attached.

Seals should go ahead with the investment. Annual Revenue $96,150,000 Total Expenses $86,000,000 Depreciation $4,250,000 Operating Profit $5,900,000 Tax $1,770,000 Net Profit $4,130,000 Cash Flow $8,380,000 NPV of ivestment $6,225,343.53

My calculations match yours except for: the working capital addition of 1.4M US$ shouldn't be depreciated as this is a cash injection to cover cashflow deficit and wouldn't appear in the income statement. in the NPV formula you shouldn't discount t…

No capital loss. The capital (equipment) itself is depreciated and has 0 book value and this is resulted in the amount of tax to be paid, hence impacting positively on the cash flow, thus can't recount it twice in calculating the Tax. So the The ca…

Hi Krishnan, you did not take into account the neccesary increase of working capital. Can you indicate how you handled this ?
January 26
Sorry for confusing others abt my calculation. When the project terminates at year 8, the equipment will be sold. The capital gain will be taxed. But this case it has a capital loss (obviously). Recall "At the end of the project's life the facili…

Yes, Seals should produce the cold rooms. Plz refer to working attached.

I agree with George A.Y. up to the 34*.3......I don't understand where the 34 is coming from either and agree with your numeric calculation Matt. But taking this into account the outcome for this project still looks positive to me.

I had one input for the terminal cash flow: "$40 million facility will be depreciated prime cost to zero over the project's life" would mean that the capital gain would be 8.4mm (the sales price of the fully depreciated facility and the non-deprecia…

No problem in initial cash outlay but: 1. Land is $2.4 mm which should not be "depreciated". 2. "The $40 million facility will be depreciated prime cost to zero over the project's life" 3. Depreciation brings no CF directly except its tax shield.…

Is the 7.4k per cold room a setup cost (Installation cost) or an annual operating cost? I believe the operating cost is already included in the 12M Fixed Cost.
January 25
Initial cash outflow is 40mm + 2.4mm + 1.4mm = 43.8mm. $400000 spent on marketing study is a sunk cost and hence irrelevant for this decison making. annual depreciation = [40mm - (8.4-2.4) ]/8 = 4.25. cost of land is excluded from residual value.…
