Gisele is performing a make/buy study involving the retention or disposal of a 4-year-old machine that was to be in production for 8 years. It cost $500,000 originally.

The Scampini Supplies Company recently purchased a new delivery truck. The new truck cost $22,500, and it is expected to generate net after-tax operating cash flows, including depreciation, of $6,250 per year. The truck has a 5-year expected life. The expected salvage values after tax adjustments for the truck are given here. The company’s cost of capital is 10%. Should the firm operate the truck until the end of its 5-year physical life? If not, then what is its optimal economic life? Would the introduction of salvage values, in addition to operating cash flows, ever reduce the expected NPV and/or IRR of a project?
Alfredo Company purchased a new 3-D printer for $900,000. Although this printer is expected to last for ten years, Alfredo knows the technology will become old quickly, and so they plan to replace this printer in three years. At that point, Alfredo believes it will be able to sell the printer for $15,000. Calculate yearly depreciation using the double-declining-balance method.
Filkins Fabric Company is considering the replacement of its old, fully depreciated knitting machine. Two new models are available: Machine 190-3, which has a cost of $190,000, a 3-year expected life, and after-tax cash flows (labor savings and depreciation) of $87,000 per year; and Machine 360-6, which has a cost of $360,000, a 6-year life, and after-tax cash flows of $98,300 per year. Knitting machine prices are not expected to rise because inflation will be offset by cheaper components (microprocessors) used in the machines. Assume that Filkins’ cost of capital is 14%. Should the firm replace its old knitting machine? If so, which new machine should it use? By how much would the value of the company increase if it accepted the better machine? What is the equivalent annual annuity for each machine?
Montello Inc. purchases a delivery truck for $25,000. The truck has a salvage value of $6,000 and is expected to be driven for 125,000 miles. Montello uses the units-of-production depreciation method, and in year one the company expects the truck to be driven for 26,000 miles; in year two, 30,000 miles; and in year three, 40,000 miles. Consider how the purchase of the truck will impact Montellos depreciation expense each year and what the trucks book value will be each year after depreciation expense is recorded.
Consider the following scenario involving an existing asset. Which of these values would be used in the replacement analysis of this asset? Your company purchased a new construction vehicle 4 years ago for $300,000. Last year, the vehicle required a major overhaul costing $25,000. Today, a local dealer offers you a trade-in allowance of $175,000 for the vehicle. The current market-value for the 4-year-old vehicle is $147,000. a. Use $300,000 original purchase price only.b. Use only $147,000 market value.c. Use only $175,000 trade-in allowance.d. Use all four of these costs.
You purchased a box-making machine that cost $50,000 five years ago At that time, the system was estimated to have a service life of five years with salvage value of $5,000. These estimates are still good. The property has been depreciated at a declining balance CCA rate of 30%. Now (at the end of year 5 from pur chase) you are considering selling the machine for $10,000. What UCC should you use in determining the disposal tax effect?
Rastaman Engineering Company purchased 12 years ago a heavy planer for P50,000. As the life of the planer was 20 years, a straight-line depreciation reserve has been provided on that basis. Now the firm wishes to replace the old planer with a newly-designed planer possesing several advantages. It can sell the old planer for P10,000. The new machine will cost P70,000. What is the total amount required for the new planer? P10,000 P30,000 O P40,000 P2,500
A certain corn mill decided to sell its old engine which has been used for 5 years costing P7,200 new. The average operating cost per year thus far has been P4,200. The replacement costing P12,000 has an estimated life of 15 years, estimated annual operating cost 20% lower than that of the old engine. If interest is 5% and using straight-line depreciation, how much must the old engine be sold if its working life and its salvage value have been assumed as 15 years and P500, respectively? Actual total cost for the old engine considering depreciation, interest and operation is P347 less than that of the new. Salvage value of the replacement is P800.

A project has to sell a machine that is obsolete. The market department finds a buyer who is willing to pay $100, 000 for the machine. The machine was purchased 4 years ago for $1.1 million. The accounting department notes that the depreciation method for this machine is straight line, and the machine will be depreciated to zero over a five year time period after purchase. What is the machine's after - tax salvage value? Tax rate is 21%. Question 1 options: $1, 635.24 $2, 314.05 $142,000.00 - $2,784.62$289.26
ABS Corporation is considering an investment in new machinery and is gathering data about the purchase. The new machine costs $500,000 and will have delivery charges of $45,000 and installation charges of $25,000. The new machine will be depreciated over 5 years and the salvage value will not be considered in the depreciation calculation. The old machinery had an original cost of $200,000. The current book value of the old machinery is $15,000 and has a current market value of $25,000. The new machine is expected to produce marginal cash revenues of $325,000 and marginal cash expenses of $75,000 annually for each of the next 5 years. The new machine will be sold at the end of the 5-year project for $30,000, when it will be fully depreciated. ABS is subject to a 25% tax rate. ABS corporation has a weighted average cost of capital of 12%, but since this project is riskier than other projects, management has decided to adjust the required rate of return by 2%.

LLED has purchased a new chip making machine for $1,500,000 with a salvage value of $100,000in 10 years. The LLED company is trying to determine the best method of depreciation. Create atable and calculate the deprecation amount for each year using straight line, double decliningbalance, and MACRS (10 yr property class). For SL and DDB we will not depreciate below thesalvage value. Using a MARR of 10% calculate the present worth of the depreciation deductions.Which is the preferred method of depreciation for LLED?
Ten years ago, a contractor was able to purchase a crane whose capacity is 2000 tons costing P125 per ton. The life was estimated to be 15 years with a salvage value of 10% of the cost. A market has been found for the old crane for P80,000. If the depreciation has been figured on a straight line basis what is the difference between the depreciation book value of the old crane and its sale value. Final answer should be P20,000
