The Miami Company is deciding whether to purchase a new piece of equipment. The equipment costs $1,000,000 and the fee to transport and install the equipment is $ 20,000. We also expect to spend $50,000 training our staff on the new equipment. Assume that this type of equipment is depreciated with straight - line depreciation over 5 years. How would we recognize the expenses associated with this investment on the income statement and balance sheet?

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?
Dauten is offered a replacement machine which has a cost of 8,000, an estimated useful life of 6 years, and an estimated salvage value of 800. The replacement machine is eligible for 100% bonus depreciation at the time of purchase- The replacement machine would permit an output expansion, so sales would rise by 1,000 per year; even so, the new machines 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 increase by 500. Dautens marginal federal-plus-state tax rate is 25%, and its WACC is 11%. Should it replace the old machine?

You are evaluating a potential investment in equipment. The equipment's basic price is $163,000, and shipping costs will be $4,900. It will cost another $21,200 to modify it for special use by your firm, and an additional $8,200 to install it. The equipment falls in the MACRS 3-year class that allows depreciation of 33% the first year, 45% the second year, 15% the third year, and 7% the fourth year. You expect to sell the equipment for 29,600 at the end of three years. The equipment is expected to generate revenues of $151,000 per year with annual operating costs of $77,000. The firm's marginal tax rate is 40.0%. What is the after-tax operating cash flow for year 2? $79,914 -$8,871 $74,000 -$14,785 $88,785

Freida Company is considering an asset replacement project ofreplacing a control device. This old control device has been fullydepreciated but can be sold for $5,000. The new control device, whichis more automated, will cost $42,000. The new device’s installation andshipping costs will total $16,000. The new device will be depreciatedon a straight-line basis over its 2-year economic life to an estimatedsalvage value of $0. The actual salvage value of this device at the endof 2-year period (That is, the market value of the device at the end of2-year period) is estimated to be $4,000. If the replacement project is accepted, Freida will require an initial working capital investment of$2,200 (that is, adding $2,200 initially to its net working capital).During the 1st year of operations, Freida expects its annual revenue toincrease from $72,800 to $90,000. After the 1st year, revenues fromthe replacement are expected to increase at a rate of $2,800 a year forthe remainder of the project…

A local delivery company has purchased adelivery truck for $15,000. The truck will be depreciated under MACRS as five-year property. Thetruck’s market value (salvage value) is expectedto decrease by $2,500 per year. It is expected thatthe purchase of the truck will increase its revenueby $10,000 annually.

If the company plansto keep the truck for only two years, what would bethe equivalent present worth?
The table given below lists the relevant cost items for a specific system purchase. The operating expenses for the new system are $10,000 per year, and the useful life of the system is expected to be five years. The salvage value for depreciation purposes is equal to 25% of the hardware cost. Cost Item Cost Hardware $160,000 Training $15,000 Installation $15,000 a) What is the Book Value (BV) of the device at the end of year three if the Straight Line (SL) depreciation method is used? b) Suppose that after depreciating the device for two years with the SL method, the firm decides to switch to the double declining balance depreciation method for the remainder of the device's life (the remaining three years). What is the device's BV at the end of four years?
We assume that the company you selected is considering a new project. The project has 8 years’ life. This project requires initial investment of $235 million to purchase the building, and purchase equipment, and $15 million for shipping & installation fee. The fixed assets (Total of 235+15= $250 M) fall in the 7-year MACRS class. The salvage value of fixed assets is $38 million. The number of units of the new product expected to be sold in the first year is 900,000 and expected to grow at annual growth rate of 9%. The sales price is $265 per unit and the variable cost is $174 per unit in the first year, but they should be adjusted accordingly based on the estimated annualized inflation rate of 2.8%. The required net operating working capital (NOWC) for each year is 15% of sales for that year. The company is in the 21% tax bracket. The company’s optimal capital structure is 65% equity and 35 debt financing. Assume a WACC of 7% based on target capital structure of this firm. -…
