Sophisticated Widgets Inc. is considering an investment project that will require an initial investment of $200,000 in net working capital and have an estimated life of 5 years. The project’s incremental sales are expected to be 300,000 units at a price of $15 per unit for the first year. The price per unit is expected to grow at the rate of inflation of 3% per year. The variable costs will represent 65% of annual revenues and the fixed costs will be $800,000 annually. The capital spending associated with the project will cost $1,900,000 and will require an additional $150,000 of shipping and installation expenses. The fixed assets associated with the project will be depreciated using the MACRS 7-year class life. After five years the project’s fixed assets can be sold for $350,000.
