Assume that the after-tax hurdle rate for accepting new capital investment projects by the company is 4%, after-tax. Calculate:

a. The payback period in years (rounded to the nearest 10th of a year) for this proposed investment (assume that the after-tax cash inflows occur evenly throughout the year) and the estimated (present value) payback period, in years (rounded to two decimal places).
b. The estimated accounting rate of return (ARR) on this project (rounded to two decimal points), based on the initial investment.
c. The estimated net present value (NPV) of the proposed investment (rounded to the nearest hundred dollars).

Special order carson manufacturing, inc., sells a single product for $36 per unit. at an operating level of 8,000 units, variable costs are $18 per unit and fixed costs $10 per unit. carson has been offered a price of $20 per unit on a special order of 2,000 units by big mart discount stores, which would use its own brand name on the item. if carson accepts the order, material cost will be $3 less per unit than for regular production. however, special stamping equipment costing $4,000 would be needed to process the order; the equipment would then be discarded. assuming that volume remains within the relevant range, prepare an analysis of differential revenue and costs to determine whether carson should accept the special order. use a negative sign with answer to only indicate an income loss from special order; otherwise do not use negative signs with your answers.
