Cost of equipment needed $ 250,000
Working capital needed $ 60,000
Overhaul of the equipment in two years $ 18,000
Annual revenues and costs:
Sales revenues $ 350,000
Variable expenses $ 180,000

The companys tax rate is 30% and its after-tax cost of capital is 12%. When the project concludes in five years the working capital will be released for investment elsewhere within the company.
