A firm is considering a 3yr project to improve its production efficiency. Buying a new machine for $375,000 is estimated to result in operating cash flow of $155,000. The after tax salvage value would be $42,000. The machine also requires an initial investment in working capital of $26,000. Given the discount rate is 9 percent, calculate the project's NPV.
Consider the following project of Hand Clapper, Incorporated. The company is considering a four-year project to manufacture clap-command garage door openers. This project requires an initial investment of $13.8 million that will be depreciated straight-line to zero over the project's life.

A factory has the following alternative: buy a used machine at a price of $10,000.00 or a new machine at a price of $30,000.00. Annual labor costs are $20,000 for the used machine and $15,000 for the new machine. The annual energy costs are $8,000.00 and $10,000.00 respectively. In the case of the used machine, the salvage value after 5 years would be nil, while that of the new machine would be equal to $5,000.00. Considering an MARR of 20% per year what is the best alternative? Use the equivalent annual cost
