Alfredo Company purchased a new 3-D printer for $850,000. Although this printer is expected to last for ten years, Alfredo knows the technology will become old quickly, and so they plan to replace this printer in three years. At that point, Alfredo believes it will be able to sell the printer for $10,000. Calculate depreciation using the straight-line method.

LLED has purchased a new chip making machine for $1,500,000 with a salvage value of $100,000in 10 years. The LLED company is trying to determine the best method of depreciation. Create atable and calculate the deprecation amount for each year using straight line, double decliningbalance, and MACRS (10 yr property class). For SL and DDB we will not depreciate below thesalvage value. Using a MARR of 10% calculate the present worth of the depreciation deductions.Which is the preferred method of depreciation for LLED?
Henrie's Drapery Service is investigating the purchase of a new machine for cleaning and blocking drapes. The machine would cost $102,990, including freight and installation. Henrie's estimated the new machine would increase the company's cash inflows, net of expenses, by $30,000 per year. The machine would have a five-year useful life and no salvage value. Click here to view Exhibit 12B-1 and Exhibit 12B-2, to determine the appropriate discount factor(s) using table. Required: 1. What is the machine's internal rate of return? (Round your answer to the nearest whole percentage, i.e. 0.123 should be considered as 12%.) 2. Using a discount rate of 14%, what is the machine's net present value? Interpret your results. 3. Suppose the new machine would increase the company's annual cash inflows, net of expenses, by only $26,475 per year. Under these conditions, what is the internal rate of return? (Round your answer to the nearest whole percentage, i.e. 0.123 should be considered as 12%.) 1.…
Crane Inc. wants to purchase a new machine for $40,700, excluding $1,500 of installation costs. The old machine was purchased 5 years ago and had an expected economic life of 10 years with no salvage value. The old machine has a book value of $2,300, and Crane Inc. expects to sell it for that amount. The new machine will decrease operating costs by $9,700 each year of its economic life. The straight-line depreciation method will be used for the new machine for a 6-year period with no salvage value. Click here to view the factor table. (a) Determine the cash payback period. (Round cash payback period to 2 decimal places, e.g. 10.53.) Cash payback period (b) Determine the approximate internal rate of return. (Round answer to 0 decimal places, e.g. 13%. For calculation purposes, use 5 decimal places as displayed in the factor table provided.) Internal rate of return (c) years The investment Assuming the company has a required rate of return of 10%, determine whether the new machine should…
Daily Enterprises is purchasing a $10.0 million machine. It will cost $50,000 to transport and install the machine. The machine has a depreciable life of five years and will have no salvage value. If Daily uses straight-line depreciation, what are the depreciation expenses associated with this machine? The yearly depreciation expenses are $ (Round to the nearest dollar.)
A small factory is considering replacing its existing coining press with a newer, more efficient one. The existing press was purchased five years ago at a cost of $200,000, and it is being depreciated according to a 7-year MACRs depreciation schedule and the first five years of depreciation have been taken (see below for MACRs chart). The CFO estimates that the existing press has 6 years of useful life remaining. The purchase price for the new press is $306,000. The installation of the new press would cost an additional $24,000, and this cost would be capitalized and added to the depreciable base rather than expensed immediately. The new press (if purchased) would be depreciated using the 7-year MACRs depreciation schedule. Interest expense associated with the purchase of the new press is estimated to be roughly $7,900 per year for the next 6 years. The appeal of the new press is that it is estimated to produce a pre-tax operating cost savings of $75,000 per year for the next 6 years,…
Which method of depreciation, from parts 1-3, would result in the largest net income in the first year for Watkins Production? Explain your reasoning? Which method of depreciation, from part 1-3, would results in the largest net income over the entire 5 years? Explain your reasoning ?
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…
Ten years ago J-Bar Company purchased a lathe for $250,000. It was being depreciated on a straight-line basis to an estimated $25,000 salvage value (watch video for Lesson 7 Part 2 to see how to handle this when using straight-line depreciation) over a 15-year period. The firm is considering selling the old lathe and purchasing a new one. The new lathe would cost $500,000. The firm’s marginal tax rate is 40 percent. Determine the net initial investment required to purchase the new lathe if the old lathe is sold for $100,000.
A manufacturing company is considering investing in a new machine that costs $50,000. The machine is expected to have a useful life of 5 years. The company estimates that the salvage value of the machine at the end of its useful life will be $10,000. If the company uses straight-line depreciation, what will be the capitalized cost of the machine? A) $7,000 B) $7,500 C) $8,000 D) $8,500
A chemical mixer was purchased 8 years ago for $100,000. If retained, it will require an investment of $50,000 to upgrade it; if upgraded, it will cost $35,000/year to operate and maintain (O&M) and will have a negligible salvage value after 5 years. A new mixer can be purchased for $120,000; it will have an annual O&M cost of $15,000 and a salvage value of $40,000 after 5 years. Alternatively, a mixer can be leased with 5 beginning-of-year lease payments of $20,000; O&M costs will be $18,000/year. If the mixer is replaced, the old mixer can be sold on the used equipment market for $15,000. Using an insider’s approach, what are (a) the EUAC of keeping the current mixer, (b) the EUAC of replacing with a new mixer, and (c) the EUAC of replacing with a leased mixer? The MARR is 10%.
replace its current equipment with new high-tech equipment. The existing equipment was purchased 5 years ago at a cost of $121,000. At that time, the equipment had an expected life of 10 years, with no expected salvage value. The equipment is being depreciated on a straight-line basis. Currently, the market value of the old equipment is $42,900. The new equipment can be bought for $174,340, including installation. Over its 10-year life, it will reduce operating expenses from $190,000 to $145,400 for the first six years, and from $203,600 to $193,600 for the last four years. Net working capital requirements will also increase by $20,200 at the time of replacement. It is estimated that the company can sell the new equipment for $24,400 at the end of its life. Since the new equipment's cash flows are relatively certain, the project's cost of capital is set at 9%, compared with 15% for an average-risk project. The firm's maximum acceptable payback period is 5 years. Click here to view the…
