Solution:

NPV is calculated as:

NPV = \frac{C1}{1+r} +\frac{C1}{(1+r)^{2} } +\frac{C1}{(1+r)^{3} } + ....... + \frac{C1}{(1+r)^{n} } - A

Book value at the end of 5 years  =  $ 4 , 729 , 720

After tax salvage value   =  25 %  ∗  $ 21  , 200 , 000  −  ( 25 %  ∗ $  21,200,000) - $4,729,720 ) * 30%

We calculate the free cash flow of the project : ( Check the attachment )

1)

Using NPV formula

NPV = − $ 7 , 328 , 810.58

2)

IRR is the discount rate (R) when the NPV of the project will be equal to zero.

Solving the equation (1) for R we get:

R = 3.93%

So IRR of the project = 3.93%

Assume that the risk-free rate is 6% and the market risk premium is 8%.
valkas [14]

Answer:

r or expected rate of return - market = 0.14 or 14%

r or expected rate of return - stock = 0.2120 or 21.20%

Explanation:

Using the CAPM, we can calculate the required/expected rate of return on a stock. This is the minimum return required by the investors to invest in a stock based on its systematic risk, the market's risk premium and the risk free rate.  

The formula for required rate of return under CAPM is,

r = rRF + Beta * rpM

Where,

  • rRF is the risk free rate
  • rpM is the market risk premium

Under CAPM, the assumption follows that the beta of the market is always equal to 1.

So, expected return on the stock market will be,

r or expected rate of return - market = 0.06 + 1 * 0.08

r or expected rate of return - market = 0.14 or 14%

The beta of the stock is given. We calculate the required rate of return on the stock to be,

r or expected rate of return - stock = 0.06 + 1.9 * 0.08

r or expected rate of return - stock = 0.2120 or 21.20%

aleksley [76]

Answer: 0.050

Explanation:

Mean = 18

USL = 18.6

LSL = 17.4

SD = 1.25

Cpk = Min{(mean - LSL / 3*sd), (USL - mean / 3*sd)}

= Min{ ( 18 - 17.4/ 3 * 1.25), (18.6 - 18 / 3 * 1.25)}

= Min { 0.05 0.05)

Cpk = 0.050
