Assignment Description

Respond to the following scenario with your thoughts, ideas, and comments. Be substantive and clear, and use research to reinforce your ideas.

"Do we have everything we need on sales and costs?" you ask. "It must be time to compute the net present value (NPV) and internal rate of return (IRR) of the Apix expansion project."

"We have the data from James and Luke regarding projected sales and costs, respectively, for the food packaging project," says Mary. "It is feasible to project that we will receive a tax break from this implementation. I have information from our audit firm that indicates that future depreciation methods for taxes will be straight-line; however, the corporate rates will be reduced to 35% as we assumed in our weighted average cost of capital (WACC) calculation."

"That sounds good," you say.

"Right," says Mary. "You can use a WACC of 10% for the computation of the NPV and comparison for IRR."

"I've got the information I need from Luke and James," you say. "Does this look right to you? Here's what they gave me," you say, as you hand a sheet of paper to Mary.

"Let's look at this now while we're together," she says.
