Gluon Incorporated is considering the purchase of a new high pressure glueball. It can purchase the glueball for $120,000 and sell its
old low-pressure glueball, which is fully depreciated, for $20,000. The new equipment has a 10-year useful life and will save $28,000
year in expenses before tax. The opportunity cost of capital is 12%, and the firm's tax rate is 21%. What is the equivalent annual saving
from the purchase if Gluon can depreciate 100% of the investment immediately.
Note: Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.

- The Rodriguez Company is considering an average-risk investment in a mineral water spring project that has an initial after-tax cost of 170,000. The project will produce 1,000 cases of mineral water per year indefinitely, starting at Year 1. The Year-1 sales price will be 138 per case, and the Year-1 cost per case will be 105. The firm is taxed at a rate of 25%. Both prices and costs are expected to rise after Year 1 at a rate of 6% per year due to inflation. The firm uses only equity, and it has a cost of capital of 15%. Assume that cash flows consist only of after-tax profits because the spring has an indefinite life and will not be depreciated. a. What is the present value of future cash flows? (Hint: The project is a growing perpetuity, so you must use the constant growth formula to find its NPV.) What is the NPV? b. Suppose that the company had forgotten to include future inflation. What would they have incorrectly calculated as the projects NPV?arrow_forwardGluon Incorporated is considering the purchase of a new high pressure glueball.

- Your company is considering a new project that will require $10,000 of new equipment at the start of the project. The equipment will have a depreciable life of five years and will be depreciated to a book value of $3,000 using straight-line depreciation. The cost of capital is 9 percent, and the firm's tax rate is 21 percent. Estimate the present value of the tax benefits from depreciation.arrow_forwardA start-up biotech company is considering making an investment of $100,000 in a new filtration system. The associated estimates are summarized as shown below: Straight-line depreciation will be used, and the effective income tax rate is 20%. The after-tax MARR is 15% per year. Determine whether this investment is an attractive option for the company.arrow_forwardThe Perez Company has the opportunity to invest in one of two mutually exclusive machines that will produce a product it will need for the foreseeable future. Machine A costs $10 million but realizes after-tax inflows of $4 million per year for 4 years. After 4 years, the machine must be replaced. Machine B costs $15 million and realizes after-tax inflows of $3.5 million per year for 8 years, after which it must be replaced. Assume that machine prices are not expected to rise because inflation will be offset by cheaper components used in the machines. The cost of capital is 10%. A. By how much would the value of the company increase if it accepted the better machine? B. What is the equivalent annual annuity for each machine?arrow_forward
- The Lesseig Company has an opportunity to invest in one of two mutually exclusive machines that will produce a product the company will need for the next 8 years. Machine A has an after-tax cost of $9.7 million but will provide after-tax inflows of $5 million per year for 4 years. If Machine A were replaced, its after-tax cost would be $11.6 million due to inflation and its after-tax cash inflows would increase to $5.1 million due to production efficiences. Machine B has an after-tax cost of $14.4 million and will provide after-tax inflows of $3.8 million per year for 8 years. If the WACC is 13%, which machine should be acquired? Explain. Enter your answers in millions. For example, an answer of $10,550,000 should be entered as 10:55. Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to two decimal places Machine is the better project and will increase the company's value by s millions, rather than the s millions created by Machine B 1-7 amarrow_forwardGluon Inc. is considering the purchase of a new high pressure glueball.
