Suppose you are a senior financial analyst at PADICO and you are analysing the following project, where all of the dollar figures are in thousands of dollars. In year 0, the project requires an $11,350 investment in plant and equipment, which is depreciated using the straight-line method over seven years, and has a salvage value of $1,400 in year 7. The project is forecast to generate sales of 2,000 units in year 1, growing at 1.5% a year until year 5, then the growth rate declines to 0% in years 6 and 7. The cost of capital is forecast to be 11.0% in years 1-6, rising to 12.2% in years 6 and 7. The tax rate is forecast to be a constant 35.0%. Sales revenue per unit is forecast to be $9.70 in year 1 and then grow at 1% per annum. Variable cost per unit for Direct Labor, Materials, Selling Expenses, and Other Variable Costs are forecast to be $3.50, $2.00, $1.20, and $0.70, respectively, in year 1 and then grow at 1% per annum. Cash fixed costs for Lease Payment, Property Taxes, Administration, Advertising, and other cash fixed costs are forecast to be $2,800, $580, $450, $930, and $520, respectively, in year 1 and then grow at 1% per annum. The project will require working capital in the amount of $0.87 in year 0 for every unit of next year's forecasted sales and this amount will grow 1% per annum thereafter. You are required to build your detailed model in Excel to calculate the project's NPV.
