Moore & Moore (MM) is considering the purchase of a new machine for $50,000, installed. MM will use the MACRS accelerated method to depreciate the machine, which is classified as 5-year property (see the following MACRS table for depreciation rates). MM expects to sell the machine at the end of its 4-year operating life for $10,000. If MM's marginal tax rate is 40%, what will the after-tax cash flow be when it disposes of the machine at the end of Year 4? Annual depreciation rates for years 1 through 6 are respectively as follows: 20%, 32%, 19%, 12%, 11%, 6%.  A. $7,656  B. $8,059  C. $8,484  D. $8,930  E. $9,400

Wildhorse Inc. wants to purchase a new machine for $38,790, excluding $1,500 of installation costs. The old machine was purchased 5 years ago and had an expected economic life of 10 years with no salvage value. The old machine has a book value of $2,200, and Wildhorse Inc. expects to sell it for that amount. The new machine will decrease operating costs by $9,000 each year of its economic life. The straight-line depreciation method will be used for the new machine for a 6-year period with no salvage value. Click here to view PV table. (a) Determine the cash payback period.

Yoga Ltd is requesting a purchase of an upgraded class streaming system with an installed cost of $574,000. This cost will be depreciated straight-line to zero over the project's five-year life, at the end of which the system can be sold tor $20,000. The old system will be sold off for $10,000. The system will generate new tuition of $116,000 per year with negligible changes to operating costs. In year three the software license will need to be renewed at a cost of 15,000. The system requires an initial investment in net working capital of $15,000. If required rate of return is 10 percent, what is the present value of net cash flow for Year 3 (rounded to a whole number)?

Nguyen Inc. is considering the purchase of a new computer system (ICX) for $140,000. The system will require an additional $20,000 for installation. If the new computer is purchased it will replace an old system that has been fully depreciated. The new system will be depreciated over a period of 8 years using straight-line depreciation. If the ICX is purchased, the old system will be sold for $20,000. The ICX system, which has a useful life of 8 years, is expected to increase revenues by $31,000 per year over its useful life. Operating costs are expected to decrease by $3,000 per year over the life of the system. The firm is taxed at a 40 percent marginal rate. Round your answers to the nearest dollar. A. what investment is required to acquire the ICX system and replace the old system? B. compute the annual net cash flows associated with the purchase of the ICX system.

Ralph’s Bow Works (RBW) is planning to add a new line of bow ties that will require the acquisition of a new knitting and tying machine. The machine will cost $1.3 million. It is classified as a 7-year MACRS asset and will be depreciated as such. Interest costs associated with financing the equipment purchase are estimated to be $50,000 per year. The expected salvage value of the machine at the end of 10 years is $80,000. The decision to add the new line of bow ties will require additional net working capital of $55,000 immediately, $30,000 at the end of year 1, and $10,000 at the end of year 2. RBW expects to sell $370,000 worth of the bow ties during each of the 10 years of product life. RBW expects the sales of its other ties to decline by $23,000 (in year 1) as a result of adding this new line of ties. The lost sales level will remain constant at $23,000 over the 10-year life of the proposed project. The cost of producing and selling the ties is estimated to be $70,000 per year.…
