Chapter 5, Problem 5.5DMP
Judgment Case 6–5
Replacement decision
• LO6–3, LO6–7
Hughes Corporation is considering replacing a machine used in the manufacturing process with a new, more efficient model. The purchase price of the new machine is $150,000 and the old machine can be sold for $100,000. Output for the two machines is identical; they will both be used to produce the same amount of product for five years. However, the annual operating costs of the old machine are $18,000 compared to $10,000 for the new machine. Also, the new machine has a salvage value of $25,000, but the old machine will be worthless at the end of the five years.
Required:
Should the company sell the old machine and purchase the new model? Assume that an 8% rate properly reflects the time value of money in this situation and that all operating costs are paid at the end of the year. Ignore the effect of the decision on income taxes.

Perez Company:
Mutually Exclusive Projects with Different Lives. Ch 10 (10-17)
Again, you are considering two mutually exclusive projects.
Machine A: This project costs $10 million. The expected net cash flows are $4 million per year for 4
years, when is to be replaced.
Machine B: It costs $15 million, and has expected cash flows of $3.5 per year for 8 years, when it will be
replaced.
The cost of capital is 10%. Machine prices are expected to stay steady as production efficiencies are
expected to offset inflation.
Evaluate these projects.
a. Calculate NPV, IRR, Replacement Chain, and Equivalent Annual Annuity.
b. Which project should be company accept?
Problem 8-38 Replacement Decision (LO4)
A forklift will last for only 2 more years. It costs $5,000 a year to maintain. For $20,000 you can buy a new lift that can last for 10 years and should require maintenance costs of only $2,000 a year.
a. If the discount rate is 5% per year, should you replace the forklift?
Equivalent annual cost of the new machine=
Equivalent cost of owning and operating the new machine=
b. If the discount rate is 10% per year, should you replace the forklift?
Equivalent annual cost of the new machine=
Equivalent cost of owning and operating the new machine=
P10-21 Cost-Cutting Proposals [LO2]
Masters Machine Shop is considering four-year project improve its production
efficiency. Buying a new machine press for $844,800 is estimated to result in $281,600
in annual pretax cost savings. The press falls in the MACRS five-year class
(MACRS Table), and it will have a salvage value at the end of the project of $123,200.
The press also requires an initial investment in spare parts inventory of $35,200, along
with an additional $5,280 in inventory for each succeeding year of the project.
If the shop's tax rate is 23 percent and its discount rate is 10 percent, what is the NPV for
this project?
