Snow Fun Corporation is considering a new product line. The company currently manufactures several lines of snow skiing apparel. The new products, insulated ski bikinis, are expected to generate sales of $1.2 million per year for the next five years. They expect that during this five-year period, they will lose about $150,000 each year in sales on their existing lines of longer ski pants. The new line will require no additional equipment or space in the plant and can be produced in the same manner as the apparel products. The new project will, however, require that the company spend an additional $50,000 per year on insurance in case customers sue for frostbite. Also, a new marketing director would be hired to oversee the line at $75,000 per year in salary and benefits. Because of the different construction of the bikinis, an increase in inventory of $9,000 would be required initially. If the marginal tax rate is 35%, compute the incremental after tax cash flows for years 1-5.
W Enterprises is considering a new marketing campaign that will require the addition of a new computer programmer and new software. The programmer will occupy an office in JW's current building and will be paid $8,000 per month. The software license costs $1,000 per month. The rent for the building is $4,000 per month. JW's computer system is always on, so running the new software will not change the current monthly electric bill of $900. The incremental expenses for the new marketing campaign are: A local restaurant owner is considering expanding into another urban area. The expansion project will be financed through a line of credit with First National Bank. The administrative costs of obtaining the line of credit are $500, and the interest payments are expected to be $1,000 per month. The new restaurant will occupy an existing building that can be rented for $2,500 per month. The incremental cash flows for the new restaurant include:

The effect of the sale of the old machine on the initial outlay for the new machine is: You are analyzing the purchase of new equipment. Since you are not an expert on this type of equipment, you hire a consulting firm to make recommendations. The consultant charged you $1,500 and recommended the purchase of the latest model from Equipment Corp. of America. The equipment costs $80,000, and it will cost another $10,000 to modify it for special use by your firm. The equipment will be depreciated on a straight-line basis over six years with no salvage value. You expect the equipment will be sold after three years for $28,000. Use of the equipment will require an increase in your company's net working capital of $4,000, but this $4,000 will be recovered at the end of year three. The use of the equipment will have no effect on revenues, but it is expected to save the firm $50,000 per year in before-tax operating costs. Your company's marginal tax rate is 35%. What is the initial outlay required to fund this project?
