Beryl's Iced Tea currently rents a bottling machine for $50,000 per year, including all maintenance expenses. It is considering purchasing a machine instead and is comparing two options: a. Purchase the machine it is currently renting for $155,000. This machine will require $23,000 per year in ongoing maintenance expenses. b. Purchase a new, more advanced machine for $260,000. This machine will require $17,000 per year in ongoing maintenance expenses and will lower bottling costs by $14,000 per year. Also, $36,000 will be spent up front to train the new operators of the machine. Suppose the appropriate discount rate is 9% per year and the machine is purchased today. Maintenance and bottling costs are paid at the end of each year, as is the cost of the rental machine. Assume also that the machines will be depreciated via the straight-line method over seven years and that they have a 10-year life with a negligible salvage value. The marginal corporate tax rate is 20%. Should Beryl's Iced…

JDAR Enterprises needs someone to supply it with 156000 cartons of machine screws per year to support its manufacturing needs over the next 4years, and you've decided to bid on the contract. It will cost you $1750000 to install the equipment necessary to start production; you'll depreciate this cost straight-line to zero over the project's life. You estimate that in five years this equipment can be salvaged for $220000. Your fixed production costs will be $281,000 per year, and your variable production costs should be $9 per carton. You also need an initial investment in net working capital of $146,000. If your tax rate is 0.32 percent and you require a return of 0.16 percent on your investment, what bid price per carton should you submit What is the initial investment 1896000 what is the terminal value? (hint, discounted) 163257.76 what is the discounted cash flow 4564795.86 what is the bid price 4.73 Finish review A

Your firm is contemplating the purchase of a new $515,000 computer-based order entry system. The system will be depreciated straight-line to zero over its five-year life. It will be worth $53,000 at the end of that time. You will save $153,000 before taxes per year in order processing costs, and you will be able to reduce working capital by $78,000 (this is a one-time reduction). If the tax rate is 21 percent, what is the IRR for this project? (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.) IRR %

Janko Wellspring Incorporated has a pump with a book value of $26,000 and a four-year remaining life. A new, more efficient pump is available at a cost of $47,000. Janko can receive $8,200 for trading in the old pump. The old machine has variable manufacturing costs of $27,000 per year. The new pump will reduce variable costs by $11,100 per year over its four-year life. Should the pump be replaced? Multiple Choice No, because the company will be $5,600 worse off in total. Yes, because income will increase by $5.500 per year No, because income wit decrease by $100 per year. Yes, because income will increase by $5.600 in total No, Janko will record a loss of $16,400 r they replace the pump

GiGi Industries must replace its magnesium purification system. Quick & Dirty Systems sells a relatively cheap purification system for $10 million. The system will last 6 years. Do-It-Right sells a sturdier but more expensive system for $12 million; it will last for 8 years. The cheaper system will require $1.1 million in operating costs per year which is 10% higher than the more expensive system. Both will be depreciated straight-line to a final value of zero over their useful lives; neither will have any salvage value at the end of its life. The firm’s tax rate is 30 percent and the discount rate is 11 percent. Which system should GiGi install?

A firm is considering purchasing a machine that costs ​$56000. It will be used for six​ years, and the salvage value at that time is expected to be zero. The machine will save ​$45000 per year in​ labor, but it will incur ​$9000 in operating and maintenance costs each year. The machine will be depreciated according to​ five-year MACRS. The​ firm's tax rate is 40​%, and its​ after-tax MARR is 14​%. Should the machine be​ purchased?

A new electronic process monitor costs $990,000. This cost could be depreciated at 30% per year (Class 10). The monitor would actually be worth $100,000 in five years. The new monitor would save $460,000 per year before taxes and operating costs. The new monitor requires us to increase net working capital by $47,200 when we buy it. Assume a tax rate of 40% and a 15% return. a. Suppose the monitor was assigned a 25% CCA rate. Calculate the new NPV. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round the final answer to 2 decimal places. Omit $ sign in your response.) ***NOTE*** Hello, I found an answer key saying the answer is $180,108.50. Hopefully this helps for reference when solving for it. Thanks:)

Salty Nuts, Inc. must buy a new nut-shelling machine. The industrial engineer has collected the following information concerning the apparent best alternative. Calculate the net future worth of the alternative if the MARR is 6%.
