- Kent Duncan is exploring the possibility of opening a self-service car wash and operating it for the next five years until he retires. He has gathered the following information: A building in which a car wash could be installed is available under a five-year lease at a cost of $4,700 per month. Purchase and installation costs of equipment would total $300,000. In five years the equipment could be sold for about 10% of its original cost. An investment of an additional $3,000 would be required to cover working capital needs for cleaning supplies, change funds, and so forth. After five years, this working capital would be released for investment elsewhere. Both a wash and a vacuum service would be offered. Each customer would pay $1.15 for a wash and $.70 for access to a vacuum cleaner. The only variable costs associated with the operation would be 7.5 cents per wash for water and 10 cents per use of the vacuum for electricity. In addition to rent, monthly costs of operation…Kent Duncan is exploring the possibility of opening a self-service car wash and operating it for the next five years until he retires.

To complete such project, Chris would need to buy tools in the amount of $66,000, which would be completely depreciated over the project’s lifespan assuming straight-line depreciation, and such tools can be sold for $40,000 at the end of the project. Net working capital would be $16,000 over the life span of the project. The project’s variable cost would be $88,000 per house, and fixed cost would be $18,000 each year. The tax rate is 34% and Chris’ require rate of return is 14%. How much at minimum Chris should bid for each house? (Rounded to the nearest $500).

For the business alone and no other assets (such as the building and land), the purchase price is $250,000. The net cash flows for the project are $30,000 per year for the next 5 years.

- You must decide whether to buy, build or lease a building for your business needs over the next 10 years. If you decide to build, you must determine if it is better to buy an existing building and modify it or buy land and build one to match your needs. Leasing an appropriate building will cost $10,000 per month with an annual increase of 3% per year and will require some retrofitting to suit your needs ($700,000). Empty land will cost $2,500,000 and the construction of a new building would be $3,000,000. You can buy an existing building for $2,500,000 but you will have to modify it to your needs at a cost of $1,200,000. However, the building itself is quite old and will be at the end of its useful life when the ten years are up. You estimate that the land alone is worth $2,000,000.

The tank is estimated to have an initial cost of $426,000, and annual maintenance costs are estimated to be $6,400 per year. As an alternative, a holding pond can be provided a short distance away at an initial cost of $180,000 for the pond plus $90,000 for pumps and piping. Annual operating and maintenance costs for the pumps and holding pond are estimated to be $17,000. The planning horizon is 20 years, and at that time, neither alternative has any salvage value. Determine the preferred alternative based on a present worth analysis with a MARR of 20%/year.You have been asked to select an alternative project based on its IRR. The project invovles buying a new poliching machine that will replace three workers who polish the parts by hand. The machine will cost $375,280 in year 1. The workers each cost $31,000 per year in salary and benefits. The machine will require and expected $1500 per year in maintenance and will have a useful lifespan of 9 years. At the end of 9 years, the machine will have an expected salvage value of $7000. Your corporate WACC is 5%. What is the IRR for this project cashflow?
- In five years, Kent Duncan will retire. He is exploring the possibility of opening a self-service car wash. The car wash could be managed in the free time he has available from his regular occupation, and it could be closed easily when he retires. After careful study, Mr. Duncan has determined the following: • A building in which a car wash could be installed is available under a five-year lease at a cost of $3,300 per month. • Purchase and installation costs of equipment would total $126,000. In five years the equipment could be sold for about 10% of its original cost. • An investment of an additional $9,500 would be required to cover working capital needs for cleaning supplies, change funds, and so forth. After five years, this working capital would be released for investment elsewhere. • Both a wash and a vacuum service would be offered with a wash costing $1.53 and the vacuum costing $0.85 per use. • The only variable costs associated with the operation would be 7.5 cents per wash…A toy manufacturer is considering the installation of a new process machine for the toy manufacturing facility.
