1. Capital Budgeting Apache Airlines is looking to buy some gates at a West Coast airport. The key financial variables are below. Note that the gates revert back to the airport at the end of year 10.
What are the NPV and IRR of the gates? Should Apache invest in them? Why or why not?
2. Company Valuation Fley Airline Supply is trading at $15/share but you think that price may not be right.
Calculate the per share price and run sensitivities for growth rates of 3.0%, 3.5%, and 4% as well as discount rates of 8%, 9%, and 10%. Put these in a matrix.

Assuming no transaction costs and each contract covers 5,000 bushels, what will the cousins’ profit/loss be if they sell the contracts and the spot price is $4.10? Mexico had a bumper harvest and spot prices fall to $3.86/bushel, what will the cousins’ profit/loss be now?
