CONCH REPUBLIC ELECTRONICS
Conch Republic is a midsized electronics manufacturer. They have one smart phone model on the market. They spent $750,000 to develop a prototype for a new smart phone. They spent a further $200,000 for a marketing study. They can manufacture the new phone for $205 each in variable costs. Fixed costs for the operation are estimated to run $5.1m per year. The estimated sales volume is 64,000, 106,000, 87,000, 78,000 and 54,000 per year for the next 5 years respectively. The unit price for the new phone will be $485. The necessary equipment will be $34.5m and will be depreciated on a 7-year straight line schedule. The value of the equipment in 5 years will be $5.5m. Net working capital for the phones will be 20% of sales and will occur with the timing of the cash flows for the year(i.e., there is no initial outlay for NWC) Changes in NWC will thus first occur in year 1 with the first year's sales. They have a 35% corporate tax rate and a required return of 12%.
