You want to invest in a riskless project in Sweden. The project has an initial cost of SKr3.86 million and is expected to produce cash Inflows of SKrl.76 million a year for three years. The project will be worthless after three years. The expected inflation rate in Sweden is 3.2 percent while It is 2.8 percent In the U.S. A risk-free security is paying 4.1 percent In the U.S. The current spot rate is $1 = SKr7.7274. What is the net present value of this project in Swedish krona if the International Fisher effect applies?
a. SKr1, 087, 561
b. SKr958, 029
c. SKr701, 458
d. SKr823, 333
e. SKr978, 177

Answer:

The net present value of this project in Swedish krona if the International Fisher effect applies is:

e. SKr978, 177

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Initial project cost = SKr 3.86 million

Annual cash inflows = SKr 1.76 million

Project duration = 3 years

Expected inflation rate in Sweden = 3.2%

Expected inflation rate in the U.S. = 2.8%

Risk-free security interest rate in the U.S. = 4.1%

Interest rate in Sweden = 4.5% (4.1% + 3.2% - 2.8%)

Current spot rate = $1 to SKr 7.7274

The present value of the cash inflows =   SKr4,838,177.26

The present value of initial outflows =    SKr3,860,000.00

Net present value of the project =               SKr978,177.26

From an online financial calculator, the present value of the cash inflows:

N (# of periods)  3

I/Y (Interest per year)  4.5

PMT (Periodic Payment)  1760000

FV (Future Value)  0

Results:

PV = SKr4,838,177.26

Sum of all periodic payments = SKr5,280,000.00

Total Interest = SKr441,822.74

Nick and Rosa are going to a music festival and are debating whether they should buy food at the festival or bring sandwiches. They only have $7 each to spend on food but would prefer the convenience of buying sandwiches at the festival to the task of preparing them beforehand. If they bring sandwiches, they will eat them regardless of how much food costs at the festival (having already expended the effort of preparing the sandwiches), and will get a utility of 10. Alternatively, if they don't bring sandwiches and are able to buy food for $7 or less, they will get utility of 20. However, if food at the festival costs more than $7 and they don't get to eat, they will get a utility of 0. The numbers in the following table reflect the utility Nick and Rosa get under each of the described outcomes.

Food Price
Options More than $7 $7 or less
Try to buy food 0 20
Bring sandwithces 10 10

If the probability that food costs more than $7 is 50%, then the expected value of utility from not preparing food is ________ , and the expected
value of utility from bringing sandwiches is___________ .

NoW, suppose Nick and Rosa a third if food at festival Costs more than $7, buy sandwiches less $7 at a deli and bring them back to the festival. If Nia and Rosa Can Choose to try to buy food at the festival, knowing they have the to buy at the deli, they now get either a utility Of 10 (if food costs more than $7 and they have to leave the festival to go to the deli) or a utility of 20 (if costs $7 or less and they can buy it at festival).

Assuming the same probabilities as before, the expected value of utility from not preparing food (with the option to convert to buying sandwiches at the deli) is ____________ therefore, the value Of the real option is ___________

The Varone Company makes a single product called a Hom. The company has the capacity to produce 40,000 Homs per year. Per unit costs to produce and sell one Hom at that activity level are: Direct materials $20 Direct labor $10 Variable manufacturing overhead $5 Fixed manufacturing overhead $7 Variable selling expense $8 Fixed selling expense $2 The regular selling price for one Hom is $60. A special order has been received at Varone from the Fairview Company to purchase 8,000 Homs next year at 15% off the regular selling price. If this special order were accepted, the variable selling expense would be reduced by 25%. However, Varone would have to purchase a specialized machine to engrave the Fairview name on each Hom in the special order. This machine would cost $10,800 and it would have no use after the special order was filled. The total fixed costs, both manufacturing and selling, are constant within the relevant range of 30,000 to 40,000 Homs per year. Assume direct labor is a variable cost. If Varone has an opportunity to sell 37,960 Homs next year through regular channels and the special order is accepted for 20% off the regular selling price, the effect on net operating income next year due to accepting this order would be:________
a. $33,320 decrease
b. $35,480 decrease
c. $33,320 increase
d. $35,480 increase
