t. You are evaluating a project for The Tiff-any golf club, guaranteed to correct that nasty slice. You ostimate the sales price of The Tiff-any to be $400 per unit and sales volune to be 1, 000 units in year 1: 1, 400 units in year 2; and 1,200 units in year 3. The pro ject has a three year lifo. Variable costs amount to $200 per unit and fixed costs are $120, 000 per rear. The project requires an initial investuent of $180, 000 in assets that will be dopreciated straight-line to zero over the three-year project life. The aetual market value of these assets at the end of year 3 is expected to be $30,000. NWC requirements at the beginning of project vil be $100, 000 and recovered at end of year 3. The tax rate is 30 percent and the required return on the project is 10 percent. What are the cash flows for s 0, 1, 2 and 3 for the project? Calculate NPV and Internal rate of return for this year project. Should it be undertaken?
