P14C-H1 The William Company has been offered a seven year contract to haul iron ore. Since this contract would represent new business, the company would have to purchase new trucks costing a total of $350,000 if the contract is accepted. Other data relating to the contract: Net annual cash receipts (before taxes) from the contract $105,000 Cost to replace the truck motors in four years 45,000 Salvage value of the trucks at the end of the contract 18,000 With the motors being replaced after four years, the trucks will have a useful life of seven years. To raise money to help purchase the new trucks, the company will sell several old, fully depreciated trucks for a total selling price of $16,000. The company uses MACRS to compute depreciation for tax purposes and requires a 16% after-tax return on all equipment purchases. The tax rate is 30%. The trucks would be in the MACRS five-year property class. REQUIRED: 1. Compute the net present value of this investment opportunity. Round all…
