Question
An asset with a first cost of $9000 is
using 5-year MACRS recovery. The CFBT is
estimated at $10,000 for the first 4 years and $5000
thereafter as long as the asset is retained. The
effective tax rate is 40%, and money is worth 10%
per year. In present worth dollars, how much of the
cash flow generated by the asset over its recovery
period is lost to taxes?

- VML Industries has need of specialized yarn manufacturing equipment for operations over the next 3 years. The firm could buy the machinery for $95,000 and depreciate it using MACRS (this is a 7-year property). Annual maintenance would be $7500, and it would have a salvage value of $25,000 after 3 years. Another alternative would be to lease the same machine for $45,000 per year on an "all costs" inclusive lease (maintenance costs included in lease payment). These lease payments are due at the beginning of each year. VML Industries uses an after-tax MARR of 18% and a combined tax rate of 48%. Do an after-tax present worth analysis to determine which option is preferred.arrow_forward4. Last month, a company specializing in wind power plant design and engineering made a capital investment of $460,000 in physical simulation equipment that will be used for at least 5 years, then sold for approximately 30% of the first cost. By law, the assets are MACRS depreciated using a 3-year recovery period. By how much will the sale cause TI and taxes to change in year 5?

The revenue was $642000 in year 2, with operating expenses of $98,000. If the company's effective tax rate was 31.00%, what would be the difference in taxes paid in year 2 if the depreciation method were straight line instead of Modified Accelerated Cost Recovery System (MACRS)? The MACRS depreciation rate for year 2 is 32%. The difference in taxes paid is determined to be $arrow_forward
- The Shell Corp. owns a piece of petroleum drilling equipment that costs $200,000 and will be depreciated by DDB depreciation with B=$200,000, N=10 years, S=$0. There is a combined 50% tax rate. Shell will lease the equipment to others each year and receive $80,000 per year. At the end of 3years, the firm will sell the equipment for $100,000.

- Daily Enterprises is purchasing a $10.2 million machine. It will cost $51,000 to transport and install the machine. The machine has a depreciable life of 5 years and will have no salvage value. The machine will generate incremental revenues of $3.8 million per year along with incremental costs of $1.1 million per year. If Daily's marginal tax rate is 21%, what are the incremental earnings (net income) associated with the new machine? The annual incremental earnings are $ (Round to the nearest dollar.)arrow_forwardAn asset with a first cost of $13,000 is depreciated using the Modified Accelerated Cost recovery System (MACRS) over a 5-year period.
