<u>Solution and Explanation:</u>

<u>Profit at 3,500 copies </u>

Sales = $ 46 multiply 3,500                            161,000

Less: Variable cost = $ 6 multiply  3500      21,000

Contribution                                                      140,000

Less: Fixed Cost                                              160,000

Net Income                                                      (20,000)

Answer:

9 years

Explanation:

Note: See the attached excel file for the calculation of the cumulative present value (PV).

Annual cost saving = $16,000 - $12,000 = $4,000

With annual cash saving of $4,000 and 12% return on investment (ROI), the cumulative PV of the cash flow from installing the insulation becomes positive in the 9th year at $1,313.

Since the cumulative PV is positive in the 9th year, that means the discounted payback year is 9th year. Therefore, the warehouse have to run for 9 years in order to justify the insulation project.

Note:

The actual discounted payback period is approximately 8 years and 1 month as calculated below:

Discounted payback period = 8 years and ((129.44/1,442.44) * 12) = 8 years and 1 month.
