Exercise 1 (Simple Rate of Return Method) The management of Ann Gee MicroBrew is considering the purchase of an automated bottling machine for P80,000. The machine would replace an old piece of equipment that costs P33,000 per year to operate. The new machine would cost P10,000 per year to operate. The old machine currently in use could be sold now for a scrap value of P5,000. The new machine would have a useful life of 10 years with no salvage value. Required: Compute the simple rate of return on the new automated bottling machine.

Machine A has a life of two years, costs $80 initially, and then $125 per year in maintenance costs. Machine B costs $150 initially, has a life of three years, and requires $100 in annual maintenance costs. Either machine must be replaced at the end of its life with an equivalent machine. Which is the better machine for the firm? The discount rate is 12 percent, and the tax rate is zero.
12 Winneconne Company is considering replacing a machine with a book value of P400,000, a remaining useful life of 5 years, and annual straight-line depreciation of P80,000. The existing machine has a current market value of P400,000. The replacement machine would cost P550,000, have a 5-year life, and save P75,000 per year in cash operating costs. If the replacement machine would be depreciated using the straight-line method, the tax rate is 30%, inventory shall increase by P10,000, payables by P5,000, what would be the net investment required to replace the existing machine? Group of answer choices P165,000 P155,000 P90,000 P160,000 P150,000 P330,000 P560,000 P550,000

Explansion Project: ABC is planning to buy a new heavy duty printing machine. You were hired to assist KFUPM on this decision. So you gathered the following information. The new machine has a life of 3 years. New Machine: Life of machine: 3 years The cost of the new machine is SAR 1,134 The machine will increase the gross profit every year by SAR 314 The market value of the machine when sold at the end of its life is SAR 191 If replaced, then the net working capital (NOWC) will increase every year by SAR 22 ABC will recover all investments in working capital at the end of the new machine's life (after 3 years). WACC is 9.49% Tax rate is 40% ABC uses straight-line Depreciation. Calculate the follwoing: Notes: 1. Use 2 Decimals

PROBLEM 1. New Project You must evaluate a proposal to buy a new milling machine. The base price is $108,000, and shipping and installation costs would add another $12,500. The machine falls into the MACRS 3-year class, and it would be sold after 3 years for $65,000. The applicable depreciation rates are 33%, 45%, 15%, and 7%. The machine would require a $5,500 increase in working capital (increased inventory less increased accounts payable). There would be no effect on revenues, but pretax labor costs would decline by $44,000 per year. The marginal tax rate is 35%, and the WACC is 12%. Also, the firm spent $5,000 last year investigating the feasibility of using the machine. What are the project's annual net cash flows during Years 0 through 3?

Amazon site BFI3 wants to test a new label scanner on their package sorter. The initial investment of the machine will be $2.5 million and the benefit due to cost savings will be $900,000 per year. Normal maintenance on the machine will cost $75,000 per year and they plan for major maintenance in year 7 of $500,000. At the end of the 10 year project life, they are able to sell the parts to another warehouse for $600,000. If the MARR is 11% what is the AEW of this project?
