Chаllenge Dyrdek Enterprises is evаluаting an expansiоn prоject that has mоre risk than the overall corporation. You are an analyst for the corporation, tasked with estimating the correct cost of capital for the project and its net present value (NPV). You estimate their equity has a market value of $[S] million and their debt has a value of $[B] million. From the bond markets, you find their cost of debt is [RB0]%, and the risk-free rate is [RF0]%. From the equity markets, you estimate the stock’s beta is [beta], and the market risk premium is [MRP0]%. The corporation will apply a subjective risk adjustment factor of ±[adj0]% to the cost of capital. You evaluate the expansion using a five-year horizon. You expect the project will increase EBIT by $[EBIT1] million next year, and this increase will then grow at [ST0]% per year for the remaining four years. The expansion requires upfront capital spending of $[IC] million and an immediate $[dNWC] million increase in net working capital. You expect the fixed assets will be straight-line depreciated over the five years and have an after-tax salvage value of $[ATS] million in Year 5. You also believe the working capital is fully recoverable in Year 5. The tax rate is 25%. What is the project’s NPV? Enter your answer in millions of dollars, rounded to the nearest $0.01 million.(Example: enter 12.35 for $12,345,678.)
