A certain newly created company installed a 10,000kW electric generating plant at a
cost of P430 per kW. The estimated life of the plant is 15 years. Salvage value is
conservatively set at x% of the first cost. The interest on the sinking fund deposit is
3.5%. The accumulated depreciation after 10 years is P2,483,595.
a. What percentage of first cost is set as salvage value?
b. How much should the electric generating plant be priced at the end of 8 years?
c. If the salvage value is increased by 2%, what is the book value after 10 years?
I need help in figuring out the step by step procedure, performing the operations and calculations manually, using formulas.
One year ago, your company purchased a machine used in manufacturing for $110,000. The current machine is expected to produce EBITDA of $20,000 per year. The current machine is being depreciated on a straight-line basis over a useful life of 11 years, after which it will have no salvage value, so depreciation expense for the current machine is $10,000 per year. The market value today of the current machine is $50,000.
You have learned that a new machine is available that offers many advantages; you can purchase it for $150,000 today. It will be depreciated on a straight-line basis over 10 years, after which it has no salvage value.
You expect that the new machine will produce EBITDA (earning before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization) of $40,000 per year for the next 10 years.
All other expenses of the two machines are identical.Your company’s tax…
