- Mom's Cookies, Inc., is considering the purchase of a new cookie oven. The original cost of the old oven was $47,000; it is now five years old, and it has a current market value of $21,000. The old oven is being depreciated over a 10-year life toward a zero estimated salvage value on a straight-line basis, resulting in a current book value of $23,500 and an annual depreciation expense of $4,700. The old oven can be used for six more years but has no market value after its depreciable life is over. Management is contemplating the purchase of a new oven whose cost is $27,000 and whose estimated salvage value is zero. Expected before-tax cash savings from the new oven are $3,200 a year over its life, you can use bonus depreciation on the oven, and the cost of capital is 10 percent. Assume a 21 percent tax rate. What will the cash flows for this project be? (Note that the $47,000 cost of the old oven is depreciated over ten years at $4,700 per year.

Depreciation has been recorded through 2020. During 2021, an examination of the building by an engineering firm discloses that its estimated useful life is 15 years after 2020. What should be the amount of depreciation for 2021?arrow_forwardThis one too for step by step 16. Assume that ABC Company purchased a new machine on January 1, 2018, for $96,000. The machine has an estimated useful life of nine years and a residual value of $6,000. Banker has chosen to use the straight-line method of depreciation. On January 1, 2020, ABC discovered that the machine would not be useful beyond December 31, 2023, and estimated its value at that time to be $4,000.

- Machine A has been completely overhauled for $9000 and is expected to last another 12 years. The $9000 was treated as an expense for tax purposes last year. It can be sold now for $30,000 net after selling expenses, but will not have salvage value 12 years hence. It was bought new 9 years ago for $54,000 and has been depreciated since then by straight-line depreciation using a 12-year depreciable life. Because less output is now required, Machine A can now be replaced with a smaller Machine B. Machine B costs $42,000, has anticipated life of 12 years, and would reduce operating costs by $2500 per year. It would be depreciated by straight-line depreciation with a 12-year depreciable life and no salvage value. Both the income tax and capital gains tax rates are 40%. Compare the after-tax annual cost of the two machines and decide whether Machine A should be retained or replaced by Machine B.

The company anticipates operating the mine for four years, and subsequently, it is obligated by law to dismantle the mine. The estimated dismantling cost is $500,000. The company utilizes straight-line depreciation and an accretion rate of 10%. The relevant present value factor is 0.68301. What is the amount of accretion expense that the company will report for the year ending December 31, 2024 (i.e., end of year 2)?arrow_forward
- SIMCO Company purchases a machine on 1/1/2020, at a cost of $24,000. The machine is depreciated using the straight-line method. The machine's useful life is estimated to be 5 years with a $4,000 salvage value. On 1/1/2022, management decides to change the useful life to 7 years, instead of 5 years, and keep salvage value the same.arrow_forwardLLED has purchased a new chip making machine for $1,500,000 with a salvage value of $100,000in 10 years. The LLED company is trying to determine the best method of depreciation. Create atable and calculate the deprecation amount for each year using straight line, double decliningbalance, and MACRS (10 yr property class). For SL and DDB we will not depreciate below thesalvage value.

The old machine was purchased 5 years ago and had an expected economic life of 10 years with no salvage value. The old machine has a book value of $2,300, and Crane Inc. expects to sell it for that amount. The new machine will decrease operating costs by $9,700 each year of its economic life.
