Managment uses a 16% after tax target rate of return (RRR) for new investment proposals.
Assumption : Assume that the cash flows in years 1 to 5 occur uniformly throughout the year.

Analytical Review:
Ignoring the Present Value factor, the company is expected to fully recover the initial invesment in 2.25 years based on
the projected net cash flow.
Scenario II:
What is the rate of return ignoring the time value for money. ARR?
Analytical Review:
The Investment is expected to have accounting rate of return of 18%. The investment is considered worthy as the ARR is
above the expected rate of return (16%), however, ARR ignored the time value factor, hence further analysis need to be
done, such as NPV analysis
Scenario III:
Analytical Review:
The investment is shown worthy as the NPV is a positive at $307,857, however this decision is based on the assumption
that net cash inflow is reliable.
Scenario IV:
similar to yearly
net profit
The anticipated rate of return showed the IRR value (29%), which factored in the time value for money, on average.
Hence, the investment is proven to be able to achieve the expected return (16%), with time value for money.

In addition to the preceding data, two other facts are relevant to the decisions.
First, a longer runway will required a new snowplow, which will cost $1,000,000. (CAPEX)
The new, larger plow will cost $120,000 more in annual operating costs. (OPEX)
Second, the County Board Representatives believes that the proposed long runway, and the major jet service it will
bring to the county, will increase economic activity in the community.
The board projects that the increased economic activity will result in $640,000 per year in additional tax revenue
for the county. (OPEX - REVENUE)
In analyzing the runway proposal, the board has decided to use a 10 year time horizon. the county's hurdle rate for
capital project is 12%.

Yankay Specialty MEtals Corporatation is reviweingan investment proposal. The initial cost as well as the
estimate of the book value of the investment at the end of each year, the net after tax cash flows for each year, and
the net income for each year are presented in the following schedule. the salvage value of the investment at the
end of each year is equal to its book value. There should be no salvage value at the end of the investment's life.
