We are evaluating a project that costs $1,120,000, has a ten-year life, and has no salvage value. Assume that depreciation is straight-line to zero over the life of the project. Sales are projected at 64,000 units per year. Price per unit is $50, variable cost per unit is $25, and fixed costs are $620,000 per year. The tax rate is 35 percent, and we require a return of 12 percent on this project.

a.Calculate the accounting break-even point. (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to the nearest whole number, e.g., 32.)

b-1Calculate the base-case cash flow and NPV. (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your NPV answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)

b-2What is the sensitivity of NPV to changes in the sales figure? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 3 decimal places, e.g., 32.161.)

ΔNPV/ΔQ

c.What is the sensitivity of OCF to changes in the variable cost figure? (Do not round intermediate calculations. A negative answer should be indicated by a minus sign.)
