12-10 REPLACEMENT ANALYSIS The Dauten Toy Corporation currently uses an injection mold- ing machine that was purchased 2 years ago. This machine is being depreciated on a straight-line basis, and it has 6 years of remaining life. Its current book value is $2,100, and it can be sold for $2,500 at this time. Thus, the annual depreciation expense is $2,100/6 = $350 per year. If the old machine is not replaced, it can be sold for $500 at the end of its useful life. Dauten is offered a replacement machine which has a cost of $8,000, an estimated useful life of 6 years, and an estimated salvage value of $800. This machine falls into the MACRS 5-year class so the applicable depreciation rates are 20%, 32%, 19%, 12%, 11%, and 6%. The replacement machine would permit an output expansion, so sales would rise by $1,000 per year; even so, the new machine's much greater efficiency would cause operating expenses to decline by $1,500 per year. The new machine would require that inventories be increased by $2,000, but accounts payable would simultaneously increase by $500. Dauten's marginal federal-plus-state tax rate is 40%, and its WACC is 11%. Should it renlace the old machine?

2. Brown Company bought a new machine 1 year ago for 12 million dollars. At that time the machine was estimated to have a life of 6 years and no salvage value. Annual operating costs are estimated at 20 million dollars. A new machine produced by another company does the same job but with an annual operating cost of only 17 million dollars. This new machine costs $21 million with a 5 year lifespan and no salvage value. The old machine can be sold for 10 million dollars. Straight-line depreciation is used and 40 percent corporate tax. If the cost of capital is 8 percent after taxes, calculate:a). Initial investment costsb). After-tax incremental cash flow.c). NPV of new investment.

Ultra-clean special handling devices used in the filling process for the manufacture of baby food are placed into use at a cost of $850,000. These devices are expected to be useful for 4 years with a negligible salvage value at that time. Compare MACRS to traditional depreciation methods by calculating yearly depreciation allowances, present worth of the depreciation allowances, and book value for each year using each of the following. MARR is 11%. a. MACRS-GDS as is proper over its property class depreciation life. b. DDB taking a full deduction in the first year, with the last deduction in year 3. c. DDB switching to straight-line, taking a full deduction in the 1st year, with the last deduction in year 3. d. SLN taking a full deduction in the 1st year, with the last deduction in year 3.

13,000 6. The Imperial Chemical Company is considering purchasing a chemical analysis machine worth $13,000. Although the purchase of this machine will not produce any increase in sales revenues, it will result in a reduction of labour costs. In order to operate the machine properly, it must be calibrated each year. The machine has an expected life of 6 years, after which it will have no salvage value. The following table summarizes the annual savings in labour cost and the annual maintenance costs in calibration over 6 years: Year (n) Net Cash Flow ($) 0 Costs ($) Savings ($) -13,000 1 2,300 6,000 3,700 2 2,300 7,000 4,700 3 2,300 9,000 6,700 4 2,300 9,000 6,700 5 2,300 9,000 6,700 6 2,300 9,000 6,700 Find the internal rate of return for this project.

Question 7 Elmdale Company has a machine that affixes labels to bottles. The machine has a book value of $80,000 and a remaining useful life of 3 years and no salvage value. A new, more efficient machine is available at a cost of $300,000 that will have a 3-year useful life with no salvage value. The new machine will lower annual variable production costs from $520,000 to $410,000. What is the effect on net income over the 3 years if Elmdale Company chooses to replace the equipment? Should Elmdale replace the equipment? lyjı H 4 pts 99+
An Americana Airway jet costs $40,000,000 and is expected to fly 400,000,000 miles during its 8-year life. Residual value is expected to be zero because the plane was used when acquired. If the plane travels 23,000,000 miles the first year, how much depreciation should Americana Airway record under the units-of-production method? (Round the depreciation per unit to two decimal places) OA. $5,000,000 OB. $10,000,000 OC. $2,300,000 OD. Cannot be determined from the data given CHED
5 Homework Finch Freight Company owns a truck that cost $41,000. Currently, the truck's book value is $24,000, and its expected remaining useful life is four years. Finch has the opportunity to purchase for $30,500 a replacement truck that is extremely fuel efficient. Fuel cost for the old truck is expected to be $6,100 per year more than fuel cost for the new truck. The old truck is paid for but, in spite of being in good condition, can be sold for only $18,000. Required Calculate the total relevant costs. Should Finch replace the old truck with the new fuel-efficient model, or should it continue to use the old truck until it wears out? Replace With New Keep Old Total relevant costs Should Finch replace or continue the old truck? Replace the old truck. Continue to use the old truck.
