An injection molding machine can be purchased and installed for $90,000. It is in the seven-year GDS property class and is expected to be kept in service for eight years. It is believed that $10,000 can be obtained when the machine is disposed of at the end of year eight. The net annual value added (i.e., revenues less expenses) that can be attributed to this machine is constant over eight years and amounts to $15,000. An effective income tax rate of 40% is used by the company, and the after-tax MARR equals 15% per year. Solve, a. What is the approximate value of the company’s before-tax MARR?

An excavator is purchased now with a cost of $200,000. The excavator will need major maintenance every year, with the first maintenance occurring at EOY 1. The cost of maintenance at EOY 1 is $20,000, and the cost increases by 2,000 each time it is performed. The life of the excavator is 20 years. At EOY 20, the excavator will be sold for $40,000. Nominal interest rate is given as 24% compounded monthly. Find the net present worth of this investment.
Johnson Co. is considering replacing an existing piece of equipment. The project involves the following: • The new equipment will have a cost of $1,200,000, and it will be depreciated on a straight-line basis over a period of six years (years 1–6). • The old machine is also being depreciated on a straight-line basis. It has a book value of $200,000 (at year 0) and four more years of depreciation left ($50,000 per year). • The new equipment will have a salvage value of $0 at the end of the project's life (year 6). The old machine has a current salvage value (at year 0) of $300,000. • Replacing the old machine will require an investment in net working capital (NWC) of $45,000 that will be recovered at the end of the project's life (year 6). • The new machine is more efficient, so the firm’s incremental earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) will increase by a total of $700,000 in each of the next six years (years 1–6). Hint: This value represents the difference between the…
Special Instrument company is considering replacing its machine with a new model that sells for $40,000, the cost of installation is $6,000. The old machine has been fully depreciated and has a $2500 salvage value. The new machine will be depreciated as a 3-year MACRS asset. Revenues are expected to increase $18,000 per year over the 5-year life of the new machine. At the end of 5 years the new machine is expected to have a $1500 salvage value. What is the NPV for this project if Special Instrument has a required rate of return of 12% and a marginal tax rate of 35%? Operating costs are not expected to increase from the current level of $8,000 per year. Briefly Discuss if you accept or reject the new machine and why.
