Billy Bob's Crab & Oyster Shack wants to reduce the cost of labour by replacing some labour with machines. If Billy Bob's were to purchase a machine to shuck the oysters, it can save $50,000 a year for 10 years. The new machine will cost $650,000 and it will be worth $50,000 at the end of the 10 year period. The firm believes it will need $10,000 in spare parts inventory (increase in NWC), which it can sell for the $5,000 at the end of the project. The machine has a 20% CCA rate and the firm has a 15% tax rate. If they want a 20% return on their investment what is the NPV? Round your answer to the nearest dollar, no dollar sign, no commas, put negative sign if needed.

It is considering purchasing a machine instead, and is comparing two options: Purchase the machine it is currently renting for $150,000. This machine will require $20,000 per year in ongoing maintenance expenses. Purchase a new, more advanced machine for $250,000. This machine will require $15,000 per year in ongoing maintenance expenses and will lower bottling costs by $10,000 per year. Also, $35,000 will be spent upfront in training the new operators of the machine. Suppose the appropriate discount rate is 8% per year and the machine is purchased today. Maintenance and bottling costs are paid at the end of each year, as is the rental of the machine. Assume also that the machines will be depreciated via the straight-line method over seven years and that they have a 10-year life with a negligible salvage value. The marginal corporate tax rate is 35%. Should Beryl’s Iced…If you buy the new machine you will be able to sell the existing machine for $6,000. The new machine will cost $10,000 for delivery and installation, on top of the purchase price. Making your product more quickly is important because you currently cannot meet the demands of your orders. You are currently selling every widget you produce. The machine will cost $100,000 today and will require annual maintenance of $5,000 each year (except for the final year), starting at the end of the first year. You expect that your machine will last for 8 years before you need to purchase the next machine. At that time, you expect you will be able to sell the machine for $7,800. You can buy the machine now and have it delivered and installed by tomorrow. You expect that you will sell 2,000 more widgets in year 1 and that this number will increase by 20% each year for the next 4 years after that before leveling off at that level of sales for the remaining years you own the machine. You can obtain more…
