1. Adana Company is considering a project with estimated annual unit sales of 160,000; sale price per unit of $34; variable costs per unit of $19; and annual fixed costs of $310,000. The firm expects that the true values for unit sales, price per unit, variable costs per unit, and fixed costs will be within plus or minus 15% of these estimates. The project requires a fixed asset investment of $1,500,000 that will be depreciated straight-line to zero over the project’s 5 year life. The firm’s discount rate is 10% and the tax rate is 30%. Calculate the worst case OCF?
