Information for Terra Corp. Terra Corp is considering the purchase of a machine that is expected to cost $180,000. The machine will require an additional $40,000 to have it shipped, modified, and installed. The purchase of this machine is expected to require additional working capital of $20,000 upfront, which will be liquidated when the machine is sold off. Terra expects to use the machine for 4 years, and then sell it for $95,000. The machine will be fully depreciated over the four years, at a constant rate. In each of the four years, Terra’s revenues are expected to be $85,000 higher than they would be without the machine. Annual operating costs (not including depreciation) will also be higher, however, to the extent of $19,000. The firm pays a 30% rate in taxes, and its cost of capital is 7.5%. The initial outflow of cash for the proposed project is expected to be: $220,000 $200,000 $180,000 $190,000 $240,000
Tanaka Machine Shop is considering a four-year project to improve its production efficiency. Buying a new machine press for $397,000 is estimated to result in $145,000 in annual pretax cost savings. The press qualifies for 100 percent bonus depreciation and it will have a salvage value at the end of the project of $46,000. The press also requires an initial investment in spare parts inventory of $15,100, along with an additional $2,100 in inventory for each succeeding year of the project. The shop's tax rate is 21 percent and its discount rate is 8 percent. Calculate the project's NPV. Note: Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.

An injection moulding machine was purchased 2 years ago. The machine has been depreciated on a straight-line basis with $500 salvage value, and it has 6 years of remaining life. Its current book value is $2,600, and it can be sold for $3,000 at this time. Assume, for ease of calculation, that the annual depreciation expense is $350 per year. The firm 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 (20%, 32%, 19%, 12%, 12%, 5%). The replacement machine would permit an output expansion, so sales would rise by $1,000 per year; even so, the new machine would cause operating expenses to decline by $1,500 per year. The machine would require that inventories be increased by $2,000 but accounts payable would simultaneously increase by $500. The firm’s marginal federal-plus-state tax rate is 40 percent, and its cost of capital is 15 percent. Should it replace…

Purple Haze Machine Shop is considering a four-year project to improve its production efficiency. Buying a new machine press for $526,528 is estimated to result in some amount of annual pretax cost savings. The press will have an aftertax salvage value at the end of the project of $86,879. The OCFS of the project during the 4 years are $170,654, $199,481, $175,232 and $169,873, respectively. The press also requires an initial investment in spare parts inventory of $23, 482, along with an additional $1,631 in inventory for each succeeding year of the project. The shop's discount rate is 6 percent. What is the NPV for this project?
7) costs for the current machine. The current machine is based on older technology and has negligible market value. The purchase price of the new equipment is $500,000 and it is expected to last for 10 years. Its terminal salvage value is $50,000. Operating and maintenance (O&M) costs are estimated to be $20,000 for the first year. Thereafter, these O&M costs are expected to increase by $2,000 each year over the previous year's costs. MARR is 10% per year compounded annually. a) b) purchase this new equipment? Explain. EmKay, Inc. has decided to purchase new equipment because of the increasing maintenance Compute the present worth for this new equipment purchase. If the annual O&M costs for the current machine are $75,000, would you support the decision to

Maxwell Manufacturing is contemplating the purchase of a new machine to replace a machine that has been in use for seven years. The old machine has a net book value (NBV) of $51,000 and still has five years of useful life remaining. The old machine has a current market value of $5,100, but is expected to have no market value after five years. The variable operating costs and depreciation expenses (straight-line basis) are $120,000 per year. The new machine will cost $86,000, has an estimated useful life of five years with zero disposal value after five years, and an annual operating expense of $101,000 (including straight-line depreciation). Considering the five years in total and ignoring the time value of money and income taxes, what is the difference in total relevant costs for the two decision alternatives (keep vs. replace)?
The Carico Company recently purchased a new machine for its factory operations at a cost of $921,250. The investment is expected to generate $250,000 in annual cash flows for a period of six years. The required rate of return is 14%. The old machine has a remaining life of six years. The new machine is expected to have zero value at the end of the six-year period. The disposal value of the old machine at the time of replacement is zero. Required: What is the internal rate of return? a. 18% b. 16% c. 15% d. 17%
A new high-efficiency digital-controlled flange-lipper can be purchased for $130,000, including installation costs. During its 5-year life, it will reduce cash operating expenses by $45,000 per year, although it will not affect sales. At the end of its useful life, the high-efficiency machine is estimated to be worthless. MACRS depreciation will be used, and the machine will be depreciated over its 3-year class life rather than its 5-year economic life, so the applicable depreciation rates are 33.33%, 44.45%, 14.81%, and 7.41%. The old machine can be sold today for $50,000. The firm's tax rate is 35%, and the appropriate cost of capital is 14%. If the new flange-lipper is purchased, what is the amount of the initial cash flow at Year 0? Round your answer to the nearest whole dollar.$ What are the incremental net cash flows that will occur at the end of Years 1 through 5? Do not round intermediate calculations.

Argyl Manufacturing is evaluating the possibility of expanding its operations. This expansion will require the purchase of land at a cost of $150,000. A new building will cost $120,000 and will be depreciated on a straight-line basis over 10 years to a salvage value of $0. Actual land salvage at the end of 10 years is expected to be $200,000. The actual building salvage at the end of 10 years is expected to be $190,000. Equipment for the facility is expected to cost $260,000. Installation costs will be an additional $20,000 and shipping costs will be $13,000. This equipment will be depreciated as a 7-year MACRS asset. Actual estimated salvage at the end of 10 years is $0. The project will require net working capital of $75,000 initially (year 0), an additional $40,000 at the end of year 1, and an additional $40,000 at the end of year 2. The project is expected to generate increased EBIT (operating income) for the firm of $110,000 during year 1. Annual EBIT is expected to grow at a rate…
