of 5 years, and the salvage value was estimated to be $60,000. Locke estimates that the new equipment can produce 12,000 machine tools in its first year. It estimates that production will decline by 1,000 units per year over the remaining useful life of the equipment.
The following depreciation methods may be used: (1) straight-line, (2) double-declining-balance, (3) sum-of-the-years’-digits, and (4) units-of-output. For tax purposes, the class life is 7 years. Use the MACRS tables for computing depreciation.

- visnoarrow_forwardreplace its current equipment with new high-tech equipment. The existing equipment was purchased 5 years ago at a cost of $121,000. At that time, the equipment had an expected life of 10 years, with no expected salvage value. The equipment is being depreciated on a straight-line basis. Currently, the market value of the old equipment is $42,900. The new equipment can be bought for $174,340, including installation. Over its 10-year life, it will reduce operating expenses from $190,000 to $145,400 for the first six years, and from $203,600 to $193,600 for the last four years. Net working capital requirements will also increase by $20,200 at the time of replacement. It is estimated that the company can sell the new equipment for $24,400 at the end of its life. Since the new equipment's cash flows are relatively certain, the project's cost of capital is set at 9%, compared with 15% for an average-risk project. The firm's maximum acceptable payback period is 5 years.

It was estimated that the building would have a useful life of 40 years and a salvage value of $26,000 at the end of that time. Early in 2001, an addition to the building was constructed at a cost of $220,000. At that time, it was estimated that the remaining life of the building would be, as originally estimated, an additional 30 years, and that the addition would have a life of 30 years and a salvage value of $9,000. In 2019, it is determined that the probable life of the building and addition will extend to the end of 2050, or 20 years beyond the original estimate.
