Notes:
(a) Depreciation/amortization expense is included in the cost of goods sold, yet it is a noncash charge. Thus, it must be added back to net income to obtain the net cash flow in each year. The terminal value is the present value, as of the end of Year 5, of the equity cash flows that are expected to occur after Year 5. This value was obtained by assuming 10 percent annual growth in equity cash flows after Year 5 and a cost of equity of 30 percent: $21(1.10) Terminal value = $116. 0.30-0.10
