Expert Solution
1)
1.Calculation of operating income(Earning before Interest and Tax)
EBIT=Sales-Ingredients-Utilities-rent-salaries-employee benefit-Depreciation
=$490,000-$49,000-$24,500-$88,200-$98,000-$73,500-$49,000-$14,700
=$93,100
2.Calculation of net income(Profit after tax)
Net Income=(EBIT-INTEREST)(1- tax rate)
=(93,100-$24,500)(1-0.30)
=$48,020
2)
Variable cost per unit is 60 & contribution is 40.
Hence Selling Price = 64+40= 100.
We know that depreciation is a tax-deductable expense.
Calculation of savings on Tax p.a due to depreciation:
(2,000,000-200,000) / 5years * 30% tax = 108,000
1) Calculation of Cash flow for year 1 to 5.
Particulars 1 2 3 4 5
Purchase machine (2,000,000)
Sales Made 2,000,000 2,000,000 2,000,000 2,000,000 2,000,000
(100,000/5*100)
Variable Cost p.a (1,200,000) (1,200,000) (1,200,000) (1,200,000) (1,200,000)
(100,000/5*60)
Fixed Cost (500,000) (500,000) (500,000) (500,000) (500,000)
Savings on tax 108,000 108,000 108,000 108,000 108,000
Sale of Machine salvage - - - - 200,000
Net Cash Inflow (1,592,000) 408,000 408,000 408,000 608,000
(Net Cashflow for all 5 years combined = Sh 240,000)
2) Calculation of NPV of the Project
Year Net Cashflow Discounting Factor @12% Present Value
1 (1,592,000) 0.893 (1,421,428)
2 408,000 0.797 325,255
3 408,000 0.712 290,406
4 408,000 0.635 259,291
5 608,000 0.567 344,995
NPV= (201,481)
3) Advice to company on basis of NPV
As we can see from above calculations, even though we get a psoitive net cashflow of Sh. 240,000 over the period of 5 years... the Net Present Value (NPV) of the cashflows comes to Negative Sh. 201,481.
Hence the company is adviced to not continue with this project since NPV is negative.
