It should not usually be clear whether we are describing independent or mutually exclusive projects in the following chapters because when we only describe one project then it can be assumed to be independent

False

NPV assumes intermediate cash flows are reinvested at the cost of equity, while IRR assumes that they are reinvested at the cost of capital

False

Net present value (NPV) is a sophisticated capital budgeting technique; found by adding a project's initial investment from the present value of its cash inflows discounted at a rate equal to the firm's cost of capital.

False

The degree of operating leverage (DOL) depends on a company's fixed costs, variable costs, and sales. The DOL formula assumes (1) that fixed costs are constant and (2) that variable costs are a constant proportion of sales.

The disadvantages of the IRR period method is that it

Requires complex calculations Requires a lot of data (estimates of all CFs) Only works for normal cash flows

Maverick Technologies has sales of $3,000,000. The company's fixed operating costs total $501,147 and its variable costs equal 60% of sales. The company's interest expense is $500,000. What is the company's degree of total leverage (DTL)?

= 3,000,000*(1-60%)/[(3,000,000*(1-60%)-501,147-500,000] =1,200,000/ 198,853 =6.0346

Maverick Technologies has sales of $3,000,000. The company's fixed operating costs total $500,000 and its variable costs equal 60% of sales, so the company's current operating income is $700,000. The company's interest expense is $410,724. What is the company's degree of financial leverage (DFL)?

= 700,000/(700,000-410,724) = 2.4198

Answer to the nearest whole dollar value

Project cash outflow = Current market value of land + Project initial cost = 2600000 + 22367744 = 24967744

Revenues generated by a new fad product are forecast as follows: Year Revenues 1- $43,447 2- 40,000 3- 20,000 4- 10,000 Thereafter- 0 Expenses are expected to be 50% of revenues, and working capital required in each year is expected to be 20% of revenues in the following year. The product requires an immediate investment of $40,000 in plant and equipment that will be depreciated using the straight-line method over 5 years. The firm recently spent $2,000 on a study to estimate the revenues of the new product. The tax rate is 20%. What is the operating cash flow in year 1? Answer to nearest whole dollar amount.

Revenue (43447) -Expenses (21723.5) -Depreciation (40000/5= 8000) = 13723.5 - 8689.4 = 5034 +Depreciation (8000) =13,034

All sales are credit sales with 40% collected in the month of sale, 50% collected the following month, and the remainder collected in the second month after the sale. Credit purchases are paid in 30 days and all other items require immediate payment. Compute the net cash inflow for March.

Sales collected = 40% of March sales + 50% of February sales + 10% of January sales = 0.4 x 402,285 + 0.5 x 379,000 + 0.1 x 352,000 = $385,614 Purchases on Trade credit for Feb = $240,000 + Cash Expenses = $94,000 + Taxes, interest and dividends = $41,000 + Capital expenditures = $25,000 Net Cash outflows = $400,000 Net Cash inflows = 385614- 400,000 = -14386

The degree of operating leverage has which of the following characteristics?

The DOL relates the change in sales to the change in net operating income.

Which of the following statements is correct for a project with a negative NPV?

The cost of capital exceeds the IRR

A new restaurant is ready to open for business. It is estimated that the food cost (variable cost) will be 40% of sales, while fixed cost will be $460,335. The first year's sales estimates are $1,250,000. Calculate the firm's degree of operating leverage (DOL).

VC = 1,250,000×40% = 500,000 = (1,250,000 - 500,000)/(1,250,000 - 500,000 - 460,335) = 750,000/ 289,665 = 2.589

In theory, a firm should maintain financial leverage consistent with a capital structure that

maximizes the owner's wealth

Capital rationing may be beneficial to a firm if it:

weeds out proposals with weaker or biased NPVs.
