For a new process, the land was purchased for $10 million. The fixed capital investment, paid at the end of year 0, is $165 million. The working capital is $15 million, and the salvage value is $15 million. The estimated revenue from years 1 through 10 is $70 million/y, and the estimated cost of manufacture over the same period is $25 million/y. The internal hurdle rate (interest rate) is $14% p. a., before taxes, and the taxation rate is 40%.
