Question
A proposed cost-saving device has an installed cost of $690,000. It is
in Class 8 (CCA rate = 20%) for CCA purposes. It will actually function
for five years, at which time it will have no value. There are no working
capital consequences from the investment, and the tax rate is 35%.
a. What must the pre-tax cost savings be for us to favour the
investment? We require an 12% return. (Hint: This one is a variation on
the problem of setting a bid price.) (Do not round your intermediate
calculations. Round the final answer to 2 decimal places. Omit $
sign in your response.)
Cost savings
$142851.5
b. Suppose the device will be worth $97,000 in salvage (before taxes).
How does this change your answer? (Do not round your intermediate
calculations. Round the final answer to 2 decimal places. Omit $
sign in your response.)
Cost savings
$146983.3
