The NPV Profile of Harris Inc.'s potiential new project states that the project should be accepted at a weighted
average cost of capital rate below 14.93%. A rate below that point will result in a profitable NPV and rate above
that point will result in a loss of money per the NPV for the project.

Part C: The best and worst case for the NPV still yields the same result as the base
case of accepting the project. Each of the situations produces positive results. The
case of the IRR and MIRR is the same because they are all over 11.25%. All senerios
would be accepted in the PI test as well.

The expected NPV in growth is still a positive number so should be accepted. Broken
down even the worst case scenario would be accepted showing the stength of the
project.

The IRR in growth exceeds the WACC in all scenarios this would result in the
acceptance of the project.

Similar to the IRR the MIRR in growth exceeds the WACC in all scenarios this would
result in the acceptance of the project.

The expected profibility index in growth exceeds 1 so the project should be accepted.
Even upon a low end deviation the worst case scenario holds above 1.

The analysis of the different breakevens is important because it shows specific points in which
project would start loosing money. If first year sales dip below 449,830 the project begins to lo
money and sould be scrapped. If the product is not selling and price is reduced to below $15.5
project will be loosing oney so again the porject should be scrapped. If the company restructu
and changes its debt to quity ration to .284 the NPV will then result in z oif all else is held cons
