Firm L has $500,000 to invest and is considering two alternatives. Investment A would pay 6 percent ($30,000 annual before-tax cash flow). Investment B would pay 4.8 percent ($24,000 annual before-tax cash flow). The return on Investment A is taxable, while the return on Investment B is tax exempt. Firm L
- a. Compute the explicit tax and implicit tax that Firm L will pay with respect to Investment A and Investment B.
- b. Which investment results in the greater annual after-tax cash flow?

what is the present value of the tax shield for the following project? the initial investment is $300,000. the project will last for 6 years, at which time the asset will be sold for $90,000. the asset will be depreciated on a declining balance basis at a rate of 20 percent. the firm's marginal tax rate is 40 percent. the firm's required rate of return is 8 percent
a) 16,204.36
b) 82,539.68
c) 98,744.04
d) 66,335.32
Can you help in calculating the NPV for this ?
Consider the following data
- A machine costs $600 today (year 0). Assume this investment is fully tax-deductible, as stipulated by the new US corporate tax code of 2018.
- This company has current pre-tax profits from other projects that are greater than $600, so it can take full advantage of the investment tax break above in year 0.
- The machine will generate operating profits before depreciation (EBITDA) of $312 per year for 5 years. The first cash flow happens one year after the machine is put in place (year 1).
- Depreciation is not tax-deductible. Notice that you do not need to calculate depreciation at all to solve this problem since it has no effect on taxes.
- The tax rate is 21%…
An income-producing property is priced at $600,000 and is expected to generate the
following after-tax.cash flows: Year 1: $42,000; Year 2: $44,000; Year 3: $45,000;
Year 4: $50,000; and Year 5: $650,000. Calculate the NPV if the required rate of
return is 15%. (If the calculated NPV is negative, report it as negative)
