Question


Shark Bait Corporation is thinking of buying some new shark attractant manufacturing equipment that will last 3 years. Shark Bait thinks it can sell 56,000 cans of shark attractant each year at a price of $5.50 per can if it buys the new equipment (Revenue). It costs $3.50 per can to make the attractant and the project has a projected 3 year life (Expense). Other expenses include rent on the production facility of $11,000 per year (Expense).

The new manufacturing equipment will cost $98,000 and be depreciated to zero over the 3 year life of the project. The equipment will have no salvage value after 3 years. The project will require an additional net working capital of $18,000 at the time the equipment is purchased. The tax rate is 37%
