 INVESTMENT IN TORREFACTION VERSUS TRADITIONAL PELLET PLANTSTodd Brown, Sarah Sykes and Glen McMahon Review of Business and Finance Studies, 2015, vol. 6, issue 3, 81-90 Abstract: This case requires students to identify the best pellet mill project available by having them analyze a number of different factors including net present value and internal rate of return. Students are given information about the pellet mills themselves, and a number of different costs to help with their analysis. Students must determine which factors are more conclusive when deciding on a project and weigh the options to eventually decide which one will be a better investment. Students may make another plant plan, different from the two described if they think it will be a better investment. This case is appropriate for junior and senior level students, as well as masters level students. Students should have some knowledge of accounting and finance principles. Students may work individually or in teams to complete this project. This case should require about 4-8 hours of outside work and about an hour of in-class discussion.
