Question 1
The TLC Yogurt Company has decided to capitalize on the exercise fad and plans to open an exercise facility in conjunction with its main yogurt and health foods store. To get the project under way, the company will rent additional space adjacent to its current store.
The equipment required for the facility will cost $50,000. Shipping and installation charges for the equipment are expected to total $5,000. This equipment will be depreciated on a straight-line basis over its five-year economic life to an estimated salvage value of $0.
In order to open the exercise facility, TLC estimates that it will have to add about $7,000 initially to its net working capital in the form of additional inventories of exercise supplies, cash, and accounts receivable for its exercise customers. In addition, TLC expects that it will have to add about $5,000 per year to its net working capital in years 1, 2, and 3 and nothing in years 4 and 5. All net working capital…

- Replacement project example: Suppose Mayco wants to replace an existing printer with a new high-speed copier. The existing printer was purchased 13 years ago at a cost of $16,000. The printer is being depreciated using straight line basis assuming a useful life of 18 years and no salvage value. If the existing printer is not replaced, it will have zero market value at the end of its useful life. The new high-speed copier can be purchased for $23,000 (including freight and installation). Over its 5-year life, it will reduce labor and raw materials usage sufficiently to cut annual operating costs from $18,000 to $9,000. This reduction in costs will cause before-tax profits to rise by an equal amount. It is estimated that the new copier can be sold for $2,400 at the end of five years; this is its estimated salvage value. The old printer's current market value is $4,576. If the new copier is acquired, the old printer will be sold to another company.

Instead of selling their old facility, they rented it to another firm and have been receiving rental income from the tenant. The tenant’s lease is getting ready to expire but instead of renewing the lease, Carlson has decided to take the building back and use it to manufacture a new product. Carlson will continue to depreciate the building on a straight-line basis as they have done in prior years, so there will be no change in depreciation expense. The old building is large enough to house the majority of operations, but they will need to rent a small storage building for raw materials. They have also decided that instead of purchasing the machinery necessary for production, they will rent the equipment on a monthly basis. Their existing workforce is unable to accommodate the production of the new product so Carlson will hire new workers and a supervisor to…arrow_forward
