Rocky Top Car Wash is considering a new project whose data are shown below. The equipment that would be used has a 3-year tax life, would be depreciated by the straight-line method over the project’s 3-year life, and would have zero salvage value. No new working capital would be required. Revenues and other operating costs are expected to be constant over the project’s 3-year life. This is just one project for the firm, so any losses can be used to offset gains on other firm projects. If the number of cars washed declined by 50% from the expected level, by how much would the project’s NPV change? (Hint: Cash flows are constant in Years 1 to 3.)

WACC	10%
Net capital investment cost	$75,000
Number of cars washed	3,400
Average price per car	$30
Fixed cash operating cost	$11,000
Variable op. cost/unit (i.e., per car washed)	$5.294
Annual capital cost allowance	$25,000
Tax rate	35%
