- THE DECISION TO LEASE OR BUY AT WARF COMPUTERS Warf Computers has decided to proceed with the manufacture and distribution of the virtual keyboard (VK) the company has developed. To undertake this venture, the company needs to obtain equipment for the production of the microphone for the keyboard. Because of the required sensitivity of the microphone and its small size, the company needs specialized equipment for production. Nick Warf, the company president, has found a vendor for the equipment. Clapton Acoustical Equipment has offered to sell Warf Computers the necessary equipment at a price of $6.1 million. Because of the rapid development of new technology, the equipment falls in the three-year MACRS depreciation class. At the end of four years, the market value of the equipment is expected to be $780,000. Alternatively, the company can lease the equipment from Hendrix Leasing.

- Adidas is evaluating a proposal for a new product. If they launch the product, they will use an existing facility in the production process, which they previously acquired for $4 million. They currently lease it to a third party, and they expect to continue to do so if they don't use it for the new product. They rent it out for $102,000 and they expect that to remain flat for the foreseeable future. The project requires immediate investment in CAPX of $1.3 million, which will be depreciated on a straight-line basis over the next 10 years for tax purposes. The project will end after eight years, at which time they expect to salvage some of the initital CAPX and sell it for $469,000. The project requires immediate working capital investments equal to 10% of predicted first-year sales. After that, working capital will remain at 10% of the following year's expected sales.

Challenging economic conditions in several countries have pushed freight ship companies to look for additional sources of revenues in addition to the revenue generated by hauling freight across the ocean. In recent years, one additional source of revenue for these freight companies has been to take on cruise passengers in addition to regular cargo. Generally there are just 2 – 12 passengers on a cargo ship. Demand for cargo ship cruises is high; travelers need to book months in advance. Typically, passengers taking a cruise on a cargo (or container) ship will get an air-conditioned room with private bathroom for about $115 per day. Meals are included; passengers will share three meals a day with the crew. The rooms are cleaned once a week by the ship’s steward. Passengers have to wash their own clothes. Entertainment options include walking or running on deck, playing ping pong or darts, watching or listening to CDs/DVDs, and…arrow_forward
