HappyPups makes pet cameras and will be introducing their newest product, the Furbo. The Furbo is a camera that allows dog owners to check in on their pup, give their pup a treat, and talk to them while they are away. HappyPups spent $375,000 on consumer demand studies and an additional $40,000 on research and development to get the perfect product for all pet lovers. Each Furbo will sell for $195. It is expected that Furbo product will generate additional revenue from the sale of treats that are compatible with device. It is expected that 50% of Furbo purchases will result in an additional $15 net profit from treat sales at time of purchase. The Furbo has a variable cost of $125.00, and the project will incur an annual fixed cost of $1,400,000 each year. HappyPups will need to purchase a new machine to manufacture the Furbo for $2,000,000, and will be depreciated using the 3-yr MACRS schedule. HappyPups anticipates it will be able to sell the machine for $750,000 at the end of the project in three years. In order to promote the product, HappyPups will initially set aside $1,000,000 worth of inventory at the beginning of the project and will readjust NWC levels to reflect 10% of Furbo Sales (not including the treats). All inventory will be liquidated at the end of project. However, by introducing the Furbo, HappyPups anticipate that will take away roughly $1,000,000 in revenue each year from its existing pet camera line. The required return for the project is 20%, and the tax rate is 21%
