Question
H. Cochran, Inc., is considering a new three-year expansion project that requires an initial fixed asset investment of $2,280,000. 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 $2,210,000 in annual sales, with costs of $1,200,000 If the tax rate is 35 percent, what is the OCF for this project? (Enter your answer in dollars, not millions of dollars, e.g., 1,234,567. Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to the nearest whole number, e.g., 32.) OCFExplanation / Answer
Depreciation per year=(2,280,000/3)=760,000
Hence OCF=(Sales-Costs)(1-tax rate)+(tax *Depreciation)
=(2,210,000-1,200,000)(1-0.35)+(0.35*760,000)
=$922500
