Keiper, Inc., is considering a new three-year expansion project that requires an initial fixed asset investment of $2.73 million. The fixed asset will be depreciated straight-line to zero over its three-year tax life, after which time it will be worthless. The project is estimated to generate $2,090,000 in annual sales, with costs of $785,000. The project requires an initial investment in net working capital of $310,000, and the fixed asset will have a market value of $215,000 at the end of the project. If the tax rate is 30 percent, what is the project’s year 0 net cash flow? Year 1? Year 2? Year 3?
If the required return is 13 percent, what is the project's NPV?
