You are evaluating the HomeNet project under the following? assumptions: Sales of 50,000 units in year 1 increasing by 49,000 units per year over the life of the? project, a year 1 sales price of $260?/unit, decreasing by 10% annually and a year 1 cost of $120?/unit decreasing by 20% annually. In? addition, new tax laws allow you to depreciate the? equipment, costing $7.5 ?million, over three years using? straight-line depreciation. Research and development expenditures total $15 million in year 0 and? selling, general, and administrative expenses are $2.8 million per year? (assuming there is no? cannibalization). Also assume HomeNet will have no incremental cash or inventory requirements? (products will be shipped directly from the contract manufacturer to? customers). ? However, receivables related to HomeNet are expected to account for 15% of annual? sales, and payables are expected to be 15% of the annual cost of goods sold. Under these assumptions the unlevered net? income, net working capital requirements and free cash flow are shown in the Table
