Question

Rolston Music Company is considering the sale of a new sound board used in recording studios. The new board would sell for $27,300, and the company expects to sell 1,580 per year. The company currently sells 2,080 units of its existing model per year. If the new model is introduced, sales of the existing model will fall to 1,900 units per year. The old board retails for $23,200. Variable costs are 54 percent of sales, depreciation on the equipment to produce the new board will be $1,530,000 per year, and fixed costs are $1,430,000 per year.

If the tax rate is 34 percent, what is the annual OCF for the project? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to the nearest whole dollar amount (e.g., 1,234,567).)

The answer is NOT 38,688,440.00

If the tax rate is 34 percent, what is the annual OCF for the project? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to the nearest whole dollar amount (e.g., 1,234,567).)

Explanation / Answer

Rolston Music Company is considering the sale of a new sound board used in recording studios. The new board would sell for $27,300, and the company expects to sell 1,580 per year. The company currently sells 2,080 units of its existing model per year. If the new model is introduced, sales of the existing model will fall to 1,900 units per year. The old board retails for $23,200. Variable costs are 54 percent of sales, depreciation on the equipment to produce the new board will be $1,530,000 per year, and fixed costs are $1,430,000 per year.

Required:

If the tax rate is 34 percent, what is the annual OCF for the project? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to the nearest whole dollar amount (e.g., 1,234,567).)

Annual OCF =( (Sell Price of new board - Variable cost )* No of Unit to be sold -  (Sell Price of Existing board - Variable cost )* No of Unit to be sold will fall - Fixed Cost)*(1-tax rate) + Depreciation * tax rate

Annual OCF =( (27300 - 54%*27300)*1580 - (23200 - 54%*23200)*(2080-1900) - 1430000 )*(1-34%) + 1530000*34%

Annual OCF = $ 11,404,049
