MTE mechanical engineering Company has a machine purchased 5 years ago at a cost of BDT 100000.00. Themachine had an expected duration of 10 years at that time. It had no salvage value and was depreciated on a straight-line method. Therefore, its annual depreciation charge was BDT 10000.00 and its present book valueis BDT 30000.00. The financial manager of the company is thinking to purchase a new machine costing BDT 150000.00 including freight and installation charges. The duration life of the new machine is 5 years with a salvage value of BDT 25000.00. The new machine will save BDT 40000.00 per year. If the new machine is purchased, the old one can be sold for BDT 15000.00. The corporate tax rate is 40% and the cost of capital is 12 %. Purchasing a new machine would require Tk. 15000.00as working capital at the beginning of the year which could be realized at the end of the 5th year. The new machine will be depreciated on a straight-line basis. Using the NPV method determined should the old be replaced?

ABC company is considering replacing their old manual loading machine with an automatic loading machine. The manual machine cost $300,000 three years ago, and is being depreciated over 10 years straight line depreciation, with no salvage value. If ABC replaces the manual machine, the new automatic machine will cost $400,000 and have a useful life of 10 years. This will also be depreciated on a straight line basis to zero. As a result of this new machine, there will be pretax savings of $130,000 in labour costs and $25,000 in other cash expenses annually. If the automatic machine is purchased, the old machine will immediately be sold at a price of $280,000. The company has already spent $15,000 researching the costs associated with this decision. The company's tax rate is 40% and no inflation is expected. The company's cost of capital is 7%. Calculate the net present value of this decision using a financial calulator
The Telephone Company of America purchased a numerically controlled production machine 5 years ago for $300,000. The machine currently has a trade-in value of $70,000. If the machine is continued in use, another machine, X, must be purchased to supplement the old machine. Machine X costs $200,000, has annual operating and maintenance costs of $40,000, and will have a salvage value of $30,000 in 10 years. If the old machine is retained, it will have annual operating and maintenance costs of $55,000 and will have a salvage value of $15,000 in 10 years. As an alternative to retaining the old machine, it can be replaced with Machine Y. Machine Y costs $400,000, has anticipated annual operating and maintenance costs of $70,000, and has a salvage value of $140,000 in 10 years. Using a MARR of 15%, a cash flow approach, and a present worth comparison, determine the preferred economic alternative.
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?
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.

Salsa Co. is contemplating the replacement of an old machine with a new one. The following information has been gathered: Old Machine New Machine Price $300,000 $600,000 Accumulated Depreciation 89,300 Remaining useful life 10 years Useful life 10 years Annual operating costs $240,000 $180,600 If the old machine is replaced, it can be sold for $24,000. How much is the sunk cost?
A machine purchased three years ago for $318,000 has a current book value using straight-line depreciation of $192,000; its operating expenses are $39,000 per year. A replacement machine would cost $227,000, have a useful life of nine years, and would require $10,000 per year in operating expenses. It has an expected salvage value of $71,000 after nine years. The current disposal value of the old machine is $81,000; if it is kept 9 more years, its residual value would be $18,000. Required Calculate the total costs in keeping the old machine and purchase a new machine. Should the old machine be replaced? Keep Old Machine Total costs Should the old machine be replaced?

The Dakuten Toy Corporation currently uses an injection molding machine that was purchased 2 years ago. This machine is being depreciated on a straight-line basis, and it has 6 years of remaining life. Its current book value is $2,100, and it can be sold for $2,500 at this time. Thus, the annual depreciation expense is $2,100/6 = $350 per year. If the old machine is not replaced, it can be sold for $500 at the end of its useful life. Dakuten is offered a replacement machine which has a cost of $8,000, an estimateduseful life of 6 years, and an estimated salvage value of $800. The company uses straight line method for calculating depreciation in financial accounts. The replacement machine would permit an output expansion, so sales would rise by $1,000 per year; even so, the new machine’s much greater efficiency would cause operating expenses to decline by $1,500 per year. The new machine would require that inventories be increased by $2,000, but accounts payable would simultaneously…
Henrie’s Drapery Service is investigating the purchase of a new machine for cleaning and blocking drapes. The machine would cost $137,320, including freight and installation. Henrie’s estimated the new machine would increase the company’s cash inflows, net of expenses, by $40,000 per year. The machine would have a five-year useful life and no salvage value. Click here to view Exhibit 13B-1 and Exhibit 13B-2, to determine the appropriate discount factor(s) using table. Required: 1. What is the machine’s internal rate of return? (Round your answer to whole decimal place i.e. 0.123 should be considered as 12%.) 2. Using a discount rate of 14%, what is the machine’s net present value? Interpret your results. 3. Suppose the new machine would increase the company’s annual cash inflows, net of expenses, by only $31,720 per year. Under these conditions, what is the internal rate of return? (Round your answer to whole decimal place i.e. 0.123 should be considered as 12%.)
a) Titiwangsa Corporation is using a computer where its original cost was RM25,000. The machine is now 5 years old and has a current market value of RM5,000. The computer is being depreciated over a 10-year life toward zero salvage value. Depreciation is on straight line basis. Management is contemplating to purchase a new computer which will cost RM50,000 and the estimated salvage value is RM1,000. Expected savings from the new computer is RM3,000 a year. Depreciation is on straight line basis over a seven-year life and the cost of capital is 10%. If the tax rate is 50%, should the firm replace the asset?
t. Johns River Shipyards' welding machine is 15 years old, fully depreciated, and has no salvage value. However, even though it is old, it is still functional as originally designed and can be used for quite a while longer. A new welder will cost $182,500 and have an estimated life of 8 years with no salvage value. The new welder will be much more efficient, however, and this enhanced efficiency will increase earnings before depreciation from $29,000 to $78,500 per year. The new machine will be depreciated over its 5-year MACRS recovery period, so the applicable depreciation rates are 20.00%, 32.00%, 19.20%, 11.52%, 11.52%, and 5.76%. The applicable corporate tax rate is 25%, and the project cost of capital is 25%, and the project cost of capital is 15%. What is the NPV if the firm replaces the old welder with the new one? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to the nearest dollar. Negative value, if any, should be indicated by a minus sign.
1.Maiden Corp is considering the purchase of a new CNC machine tool for use in their research lab. The machine they are thinking about costs $750,000 and has an expected life of five years. Please calculate their depreciation schedule using MACRS. What is the present worth of the depreciation?
