Required information
A company just purchased an intelligent robot, which has a first cost of $278,000. Since the robot is unique in its
capabilities, the company expects to be able to sell it in 4 years for $200,000.
NOTE: This is a multi-part question. Once an answer is submitted, you will be unable to return to this part.
If M&O costs are $100,000 per year, determine the MACRS depreciation in year 3. Assume the recovery period for robots is 5 years
and the MARR is 12% when the inflation rate is 4% per year.
The MACRS depreciation in year 3 is $
An energy production company has the following
information regarding the acquisition of new gas-
turbine equipment.
Purchase price = S780,000
Trans-oceanic shipping and delivery cost =$4300
Installation cost (1 technician at $1600 per day
for 4 days) = $6400
Tax recovery period = 15 years
Book depreciation recovery period = 10 years
Salvage value = 10% of purchase price
Operating cost (with technician) = $185,000
per year
The manager of the department asked your friend
in Accounting to enter the appropriate data into the
tax-accounting program. What are the values of B,
n, and S in depreciating the asset for tax purposes
that he should enter?
Can you please show me how to do these parts on excel? I have included the solutions to the parts, but I need to see how it is done with the formulas/equations on Excel, so I can fully understand what is going on. Thank you in advance!
