ECO 550 Week 10 Chapter 17 Problems 1, 5, and 9(c) Assignment description:

1. A firm has the opportunity to invest in a project having an initial outlay of $20,000. Net cash inflows (before depreciation and taxes) are expected to be $5,000 per year for five years. The firm uses the straight-line depreciation method with a zero salvage value and has a (marginal) income tax rate of 40 percent. The firm’s cost of capital is 12 percent.

a. Compute the internal rate of return and the net present value.

b. Should the firm accept or reject the project?

5. The Charlotte Bobcats, a professional basketball team, has been offered the opportunity to purchase the contract of an aging superstar basketball player from another team.

Being somewhat old, the basketball player is expected to be able to play for only four more years. The general manager figuresthat attendance, and hence revenues, would increase substantially if the Bobcats obtained the superstar. He estimates that incremental returns (additional ticket revenues less the superstar’s salary) would be as follows over the four-year period: 

9. The state of Glottamora has $100 million remaining in its budget for the current year. One alternative is to give Glottamorans a one-time tax rebate. Alternatively, two proposals have been made for state expenditures of these funds.
