Expansion cost= 10% from PPE =59,719,000 * 10%=$5,971,900 Salvage value= New PPE cost* 5% =5,971,900* 5%= $298,595 Straight Line Depreciation Using Straight-line method to find depreciate. The straight line depreciation formula is as follows: Annual Depreciation Expense=( Cost of project- Salvage Value) / Estimate life (5,971,900 - 298,595)/12= 472,775 Annual Depreciation charge= 472,775 Estimation of Cash Flows |
Annual earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) for this new project
=5,971,900*18%=1,074,942
Free cash flow = Annual EBIT x (1-tax) + Depreciation + Changes in Working Capital – Capital Expenditure
Free cash flow (FCF)= 1,074,942*(1-0.35)+ 472,775+0-0
= 1,074,942-376,229.7+472,775
(1,074,942-376,229.7)=Net income= 698,712.3
698,712.3+472,775=1,171,487.3
Free cash flow for every year (1-12) = 1,171,487.3
Free cash flow for year 0 = $(5,971,900)
