A commercial 3D printer is purchased for $310,000. The salvage value of the printer decreases by 45% each year that it is held. The cost to operate and maintain the machine the first year it is used is $12,000; these costs increase by $5,500 each year. What is the optimal replacement interval and minimum EUAC for the printer, assuming a MARR of 11% is used?

New-Project Analysis
The Campbell Company is considering adding a robotic paint sprayer to its production line. The sprayer's base price is $830,000, and it would cost another $22,500 to install it. The machine falls into the MACRS 3-year class, and it would be sold after 3 years for $485,000. The MACRS rates for the first three years are 0.3333, 0.4445, and 0.1481. The machine would require an increase in net working capital (inventory) of $17,500. The sprayer would not change revenues, but it is expected to save the firm $351,000 per year in before-tax operating costs, mainly labor. Campbell's marginal tax rate is 25%. (Ignore the half-year convention for the straight-line method.) Cash outflows, if any, should be indicated by a minus sign. Do not round intermediate calculations.

- Hagar Industrial Systems Company (HISC) is trying to decide between two different conveyor belt systems. System A costs $275,000, has a 4-year life, and requires $81,000 in pretax annual operating costs. System B costs $355,000, has a 6-year life, and requires $75,000 in pretax annual operating costs. Both systems are to be depreciated straight-line to zero over their lives and will have zero salvage value. Suppose the company always needs a conveyor belt system; when one wears out, it must be replaced. Assume the tax rate is 22 percent and the discount rate is 9 percent.

- 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.
