The second project introduced a new initiative called “Design Your Own Doll”, which uses a web-based software enabling users to customize a doll’s features to the customers’ specifications. Using the operating projections for each project we estimated debt-free cash flows, calculated the Net Present Value, and estimated changes in net working capital based on provided assumptions. We also calculated IRR and payback period in order to find the value in each project. Looking at the financial analysis, relevance to company core values and beliefs, and the level of risk associated with each investment, we recommend 'Match My Doll Clothing' line. In-depth discussion and comprehensive numerical analysis will show why this project is the better value.

This also helped with product availability and made it easier for customers to transport furniture, despite having to assemble it themselves.
