Your team is working for a famous drone producer, which is considering a new investment project. In the new project, the company will launch a new model of safer and faster delivery drones that can boost the sales by at least 35%. The new project is expected to generate an annual sale of 4,500 drones for an average price of $3,250 per unit for 5 years. The new investment project requires your company to buy a new assembly line with initial cost of $2,750,000, a residual value of $350,000 at the end of the project. The company will need to add $450 000 in working capital which is expected to be fully retrieved at the end of the project. Other information is available below: Depreciation method: straight line Variable cost per unit: $875 Cash fixed costs per year: $250,000 Corporate marginal tax: 30% Discount rate: 10% Your Finance Department conducted some economics forecast and estimated that in the coming years, lifted Covid-19 pandemic restrictions, more expensive labour costs and recovering of in person delivery services can result in negative changes of the project value drivers. You team decides to perform a risk analysis to determine the sensitivity of the project's NPV. Required: Perform an NPV sensitivity analysis with the following changes in estimated value drivers of the project. You need to provide your results in (a) relevant tables: Price per unit decreases by 15% Sales decrease by 15% Variable cost per unit increases by 15% Cash fixed cost per year increased by 15% Based on the sensitivity analysis outcome, draw relevant conclusion about project NPV's sensitivity.
