- McCormick & Company is considering building a new factory in Largo, Maryland. James Francis, a landowner, is selling a 4.35-acre parcel of industrial zoned land with a listed sale price of $3,000,000.00 for the land. McCormick & Company is interested in the land and so is another manufacturing company. The competing manufacturing company has made an offer of $2,300,000.00 in cash and $300,000 each year for 15 years for the land. McCormick & Company knows it can make an offer to outbid the competitor to obtain the land. So, McCormick & Company decided to offer $4,424,000.00 in cash. Now, the land owner, James Francis, must make a decision between the two competing offers. To make this decision, James should first identify the Present Value (PV) of each offer. James's bank is offering a 12 percent (12%) interest rate if the competing manufacturing company borrows money to pay its annual payment. Let's help James make his decision by answering the following questions using…McCormick & Company is considering building a new factory in Largo, Maryland.

One choice is to buy a machine. This would cost $75 000 and last for six years with a salvage value of $12 000. Alternatively, it could contract with a packaging supplier to get a machine free. In this case, the extra costs for packaging supplies would amount to $17 500 per year over the six-year life (after which the supplier gets the machine back with no salvage value for the company). The third alternative is to buy a used machine for $40 000 with zero salvage value after six years. The used machine has extra maintenance costs of $3500 in the first year, increasing by $2500 per year. In all cases, there are installation costs of $8000 and revenues of $25 000 per year. a) Using the IRR method, determine which is the best alternative. The MARR is 10 percent.
