The Campbell Company is evaluating the proposed acquisition of a new milling machine. The machine’s base price is $108,000, and it would cost another $12, 500 to modify it for special use by your firm. The machine will be sold after three years for $65,000. The applicable depreciation rates are 33 percent, 45 percent, 15 percent, and 7 percent. The machine would require an increase in net operating working capital (inventory) of $5,500. The machine would have no effect on revenues, but is expected to save the firm $44,000 per year in before tax operating costs, mainly labor. Campbell’s marginal tax rate is 35 percent.
