Blue Origin Engine Factory purchased a new vertical turning lathe in 2023 at a cost of $190,000. They also paid an additional $25,000 to have the equipment delivered and installed, and the personnel trained. This new equipment has a 10-year service life. The finance department decided to depreciate this asset using MACRS over its seven-year class life.
a. Calculate the cost basis of this equipment (e.g. Cost Basis = $xyz +$abc +...)
b. Calculate the depreciation expenses for each year by tabulating your answer and showing your calculations.
At times firms will need to decide if they want to continue to use their current equipment or replace the equipment with newer equipment. The company will need to do replacement analysis to determine which option is the best financial decision for the company.
Price Co. is considering replacing an existing piece of equipment. The project involves the following:
•
The new equipment will have a cost of $2,400,000, and it is eligible for 100% bonus depreciation so it will be fully depreciated at t = 0.
•
The old machine was purchased before the new tax law, so it is being depreciated on a straight-line basis. It has a book value of $200,000 (at year 0) and four more years of depreciation left ($50,000 per year).
•
The new equipment will have a salvage value of $0 at the end of the project's life (year 6). The old machine has a current salvage value (at year 0) of $300,000.
•
Replacing the old machine will require an investment in net operating working capital (NOWC) of…

Six years ago, a company purchased $30,000 of equipment. The equipment has just been sold for $5000. The equipment was depreciated using 50% bonus depreciation / 50% MACRS (using a 5-year recovery period). The actual savings due to the purchase of the equipment is shown below. The firm's MARR is 12% and it's tax rate is 25%. What is the after-tax present worth of the investment?
