Capital Budgeting | |||||||||||
Glacier Creek Textiles is planning to purchase new manufacturing equipment. The equipment has an acquisition cost of $100,000, an estimated useful life of five years and no residual value. The company uses a 12% rate of return to evaluate capital projects. The cash flows for the five years: | |||||||||||

Places with xxxxx's are what needs to be filled in, and it's for excel so if I could see the references to which numbers and the formula used that would be helpful. Thank you!!
Capital Budgeting Decision
Here is Project 2:
Hampton Company: The production department has beeninvestigating possible ways to trim total production costs. Onepossibility currently being examined is to make the cans instead ofpurchasing them. The equipment needed would cost $1,000,000, with adisposal value of $200,000, and would be able to produce 27,500,000cans over the life of the machinery. The production departmentestimates that approximately 5,500,000 cans would be needed foreach of the next 5 years.
The company would hire six new employees. These six individualswould be full-time employees working 2,000 hours per year andearning $15.00 per hour. They would also receive the same benefitsas other production employees, 15% of wages in addition to $2,000of health benefits.
It is estimated that the raw materials will cost 30¢ per can andthat other variable costs would be 10¢ per can. Because there iscurrently unused space in the factory, no additional fixed costswould be incurred if this proposal is accepted.
It is expected that cans would cost 50¢ each if purchased fromthe current supplier. The company's minimum rate of return (hurdlerate) has been determined to be 11% for all new projects, and thecurrent tax rate of 35% is anticipated to remain unchanged. Thepricing for the companyâs products as well as number of units soldwill not be affected by this decision. The unit-of-productiondepreciation method would be used if the new equipment ispurchased.
Required:
1. Based on the above information and using Excel, calculate thefollowing items for this proposed equipment purchase.
Annual cash flows over the expected life of the equipment
Payback period
Simple rate of return
Net present value
Internal rate of return
The check figure for the total annual after-tax cash flows is$271,150.
2. Would you recommend the acceptance of this proposal? Why orwhy not? Prepare a short, double-spaced paper in MS Wordelaborating on and supporting your answer.

This functionrequires that you have only one cash flow per period (Period 0through Period 5, for our example). | ||||||||
This means that noannuity figures can be used. The chart for our example can berevised as follows. | ||||||||
