Growing Annuity : A growing annuity, is a stream of cash flows for a fixed period of time, t, where the initial cash flow, C, is growing (or declining, i.e., a negative growth rate) at a constant rate g.

If Natasha Continues the present job:

Her Salary would remain 38000 and increases @3% per year for 35 years Then the Present Value of her earnings:

Here we use Growing Annuity:

PV =

g = 0.03 , r = 0.0498

PV = $933613.0676

Choosing Certificate Course:

Will increase her Salary by $10000 from second year.
Hence in second year her salary will be

(38000*1.03)+10000 = $49140.
natasha.xlsx NPV = $1162896.587 + $70000 = $1232896.587.

Choose MBA :
Increase her salary by $20000 from 4th year.
natasha.xlsx

MBA Fee : 25000 + 25000/(1.0498) + 25000/(1.0498)^2.

Total fee 75000 71498.43 = $3501.5 NPV = $1331967.588 + $3502= $1335469.588.

New type of portable computers system was proposed.

Initial Investment of 10% of net PPE for fiscal year ended

as on 2006.

Additional Investments such as 10 % of initial investment for 1st year 5 % of 1st year investment for 2nd year 1% of 2nd year investment for next 3 years (3rd , 4th & 5th Years)

Free cash flows = (unlevered Net Income)+ Depreciation Cap Ex Change in NWC Unlevered Net income = (Revenues Cost Depreciation) *(1-marginal tax rate) Net Working Capital = Current assets Current Liabilities. = Cash + Inventory + Receivables - Payables Change in NWC = NWC of this year NWC of previous year.

Marginal Tax Rate : Firms Marginal corporate is a tax rate it will pay on an incremental dollar of Pre Tax income.

ADDITIONAL INVESTMENTS (10% of initial investments) for 1st year=$35.57mn

Additional investments for second year

(increase of 5%) =$37.35mn

Additional investments for the next three years= $37.722mn, $38.1mn, $38.48mn respectively

Costs for the new product for the first year= $1365.09mn For the second year= $1569.85mn
For the third year= $1726.83mn For the fourth year= $1813.18mn For the fifth year= $1903.83mn

Depreciation= cost of assets/lifetime value; 355.7/10 Using straight line method over a ten year life depreciation= $35.57mn Tax rate: Income Tax/ EBIT

Diluted weighted Average shares from the income statement dated 12/31/2004 are 3902400.

Change in value = (change in stock prices) x (number of shares outstanding) Change in value = (4 2.65) x 3902400 = $5268240 From NYU cost of capital website, cost of capital for the Entertainment Tech industry is 9.02%.

Expected NPV of the project = $5268240

For 5-year horizon

NPV = 5268240 Cost of Capital, r = 9.02% Number of years, n = 5 Formula for calculating constant annual cash flows, NPV = (P/r)*(1 1/(1 + r)^n) Substituting above values in the equation, we get P = $1355127.7

For 10-year horizon

NPV = 5268240 Cost of Capital, r = 9.02% Number of years, n = 10 Formula for calculating constant annual cash flows, NPV = (P/r)*(1 1/(1 + r)^n) Substituting above values in the equation, we get P = $821620.43

For 15-year horizon

NPV = 5268240 Cost of Capital, r = 9.02% Number of years, n = 15 Formula for calculating constant annual cash flows, NPV = (P/r)*(1 1/(1 + r)^n) Substituting above values in the equation, we get P = $654343.81

Percentage stock price reaction is given by, (change in stock price)/(original stock price)*100 %age change = (4 2.65)/2.65 * 100 = 50.94%
