Material-handling equipment used in the manufacture of grain products (MACRS-GDS 10-year property) is purchased and installed for $180,000. It is placed in service in the middle of the tax year. If it is removed just before the end of the tax year approximately 4.5 years from the date placed in service, determine the depreciation deduction during each of the tax years involved using MACRS-GDS allowances. ———————- Repeat the previous problem if the material-handling equipment is removed just after the tax year, again using MACRS-GDS allowances.
Hyundai USA has numerous robotic welders as well as robotic checkers with vision. One underbody robotic welder costing $1,200,000 (7-year property class) was installed and is increasing productivity by 2.5% in one area. The result is a savings of $500,000 per year. Deductible expenses other than depreciation and interest associated with the installed robotic welder are only $120,000. Hyundai borrowed $550,000 at 11% for 5 years. They plan to keep the welder for 8 years. Hyundai’s income-tax rate is 25% and their MARR is 9% after taxes. Determine the PW, IRR, for the investment if: The loan is paid back using Plan 3 Plan 3—make equal principal-plus-interest end-of-period payments.
