constraints. If the CEC rejects a proposal there are large financial and emotional sunk costs‚ due to the long development process. Each project is evaluated in terms of its quantitative‚ qualitative‚ and strategic parameters. In calculating the NPV of these projects‚ Target uses two hurdle rates‚ 9% and 4% for the store operations and credit-card cash flows respectively‚ due to the different costs of capital. Funding credit card receivables requires less risk than funding store operations because

Bus M 401 Dixon Case Estimate of WACC for Collinsville Plant The WACC for Collinsville‚ according to our estimations‚ came up to about 16.22% (Exhibit I). We took the average of the unlevered betas of comparable companies‚ 0.91‚ and relevered it according to Dixon’s target capital structure. Dixon’s 5-year historical debt ratio was 27.5%‚ but this approach would not be reliable due to its steep downturn debt ratio from 51% in 1975 to 6% in 1979. Thus‚ we thought that the best estimate of the

NUCOR CASE In this analysis we use the Net present value to consider if Nucor should invest in the new technology called: thin slab minimill. NPV is really useful in order to make this kind of decision because it uses the concept of future cash value to evaluate whether the investment is worth‚ however the NPV is sometimes difficult to calculate because it is not always easy to estimate future cash flow. Considering the assumption I made in the first part of the spread sheet‚ the thin slab project

has a much higher IRR (around 45%) and the IRR barely fluctuates from scenario to scenario. This means that no matter how much the discount rate changes the project is still safe. On the other Hand the base IRR for the build option is about 22% and fluctuates greatly from scenario to scenario. There is a scenario in which the WACC changes independently off all other variables to about 22%. In this situation‚ the build option would provide an NPV of around $17‚000. That NPV while positive is
