Peachtree Construction Company, a highway contractor, is considering the purchase of a new trench excavator that costs 300000 and can dig a 3-foot-wide trench at the rate of 16 feet per hour. The contractor gets paid according to the usage of the equipment, 100 per hour. The expected average annual usage is 500 hours, and maintenance and operating costs will be 10 per hour. The contractor will depreciate the equipment by using a five-year MACRS, units-of-production method. At the end of five years, the excavator will be sold for 100000. Assuming the contractor’s marginal tax rate is 25% per year, determine the annual after-tax cash flow. In excel.

a. You have been asked by management to determine the PW of the EVA of this equipment, assuming the following estimates: capital investment = $326,000; market value at end of year six=$122,000, annual revenues = $122,000; annual expenses = $8,000; equipment life = 6 years;effective income tax rate = 25%, and after-tax MARR=8% per year. MACRS depreciation will be used with a five-year recovery period.b. Compute the PW of the equipment's ATCFs.
The average car depreciates in value about 15% per year. Suppose you buy a silver Cherolet Cruze LTZ worth $26,000 (and made no down payment).
What is the value of the car if you bought it 4 years ago?

- You are evaluating two different silicon wafer milling machines. The Techron I costs $270,000, has a 3-year life, and has pretax operating costs of $73,000 per year. The Techron II costs $470,000, has a 5-year life, and has pretax operating costs of $46,000 per year. For both milling machines, use straight-line depreciation to zero over the project's life and assume a salvage value of $50,000. If your tax rate is 24 percent and your discount rate is 10 percent, compute the EAC for both machines. (A negative answer should be indicated by a minus sign.

- Outdoor Sports is considering adding a putt putt golf course to its facility. The course would cost $167,000, would be depreciated on a straight-line basis over its 6-year life, and would have a zero salvage value.
