Suppose that LilyMac Photography expects EBIT to be approximately $ 210,000 per year for the foreseeable future, and that it has 1, 000 10-year, 9 percent annual coupon bonds outstanding. What would the appropriate tax rate be for use in the calculation of the debt component of Lily Mac's WACC?
2.21 in The Public Service Board (PSB) awarded two con- tracts worth a combined $3.07 million to increase the depth of a retention basin and reconstruct a spillway that was severely damaged in a flood 2 years ago. The PSB president stated that, surpris- ingly, the bids were $1,150,000 lower than PSB engineers estimated. If the projects are assumed to have a 20-year life, what is the annual worth of the savings at an interest rate of 5% per year?
Hotel California, a lovely place along the 101 Highway, last underwent an upgrade in 1969. As a result of its dilapidated conditions, it has plenty of extra rooms. It is considering a major renovation. The construction costs of the renovation are estimated to be $1 million, payable at the end of construction. If the construction starts today, it will last one year. During the renovation, the hotel will be closed to guests (however assume that all of the hotel's expenses, such as paying staff, are unchanged due to long term contracts). Hotel California's capacity is 40 rooms and, on average, 60% of the rooms are vacant on any single day. The daily profit per occupied room is $90. The corporate tax rate is 20%, the appropriate discount rate is 9\% and renovation can be depreciated at 33.3% per year. (a) Compute the average profit per occupied room a year. Then compute the average profit for the hotel as a whole. Assume 365 days per year. (b) Suppose Hotel California decides to begin…

Revenues for the public system were $600,000; operating expenses (other than depreciation) were $470,000.

A business purchased a delivery truck 5 years ago at a cost of $45,000. It is now planning to replace that truck with a newer one, which would cost $60,000. The old truck has a trade-in value of approximately $12,500.(a1) How much of these truck costs represent sunk costs?
K A highway bridge is being considered for replacement. The new bridge would cost $X and would last for 24 years. Annual maintenance costs for the new bridge are estimated to be $27,000. People will be charged a toll of $0.22 per car to use the new bridge. Annual car traffic is estimated at 360,000 cars. The cost of collecting the toll consists of annual salaries for six collectors at $9,000 per collector. The existing bridge can be refurbished for $1,400,000 and would need to be replaced in 24 years. There would be additional refurbishing costs of $80,000 every five years and regular annual maintenance costs of $17,000 for the existing bridge. There would be no toll to use the refurbished bridge. If MARR is 10% per year, what is the maximum acceptable cost (X) of the new bridge? Click the icon to view the interest and annuity table for discrete compounding when the MARR is 10per year. Choose the correct answer below. .... A. The maximum acceptable cost of the new bridge is $1,668,576.…
A growing city of 60,000 has an intersection near the south end of the main business district. The north-south street has no traffic control at that intersection, and the east-west intersecting street has only stop signs.There have been a few accidents in recent years and it has been estimated that a traffic light can provide benefits of $55,000 per year in reduced property loss and disabling injuries, increasing by $2,500 per year.The disbenefits of the traffic light include cost of fuel and time delays, amounting to an estimated $24,000 per year, increasing by $2,000 per year. The installation cost of the traffic light is estimated to be $120,000 with maintenance and electricity running $6,000 in the first year and increasing by $300 per year over a time horizon of 10 years. It is anticipated that the intersection will need to be redesigned at that time and the traffic light removed and sold to a nearby small community for a net salvage value of $4,000. The discount rate is 7%. Is…

22. Glenn Medical Center has seen a growth in patient volume since its primary competitor decided to relocate to a different area of the city. To accommodate this growth, a consul- tant has advised Glenn Medical to invest in a positron-emission tomography (PET) scanner. The cost to implement the unit would be $4,000,000. The useful life of this equip- ment is typically about six years, and it will be depreciated over a six-year life to a $400,000 salvage value. Additional patient volume will yield $3,000,000 in new revenues the first year. These first-year total revenues will increase by $600,000 each year thereafter, but the unit is expensive to operate. Additional staff and variable costs, excluding depreciation expense, will come to $2,200,000 the first year, but these expenses are expected to rise by $400,000 each year thereafter. Over the life of the machine, net working capital will increase by $18,000 per year for six years. a. Assuming that Glenn Medical Center is a…
