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…
Geary Machine Shop is considering a 4-year project to improve its production efficiency. Buying a new machine press for $576,036 is estimated to result in $255,756 in annual pretax cost savings. The press falls in the MACRS five-year class (Refer to the MACRS table on page 277), and it will have a salvage value at the end of the project of $106,549. The press also requires an initial investment in spare parts inventory of $73,540, along with an additional $7,848 in inventory for each succeeding year of the project. If the shop's tax rate is 0.26 and its discount rate is 0.09, what is the total cash flow in year 4? (Do not round your intermediate calculations.) (Make sure you enter the number with the appropriate +/- sign)
A company is considering a project that will require an immediate outlay of $28 000 and $28 000 outlays for the next two years.

The management of Ballard MicroBrew is considering the purchase of an automated bottling machine for $66,000. The machine would replace an old piece of equipment that costs $17,000 per year to operate. The new machine would cost $8,000 per year to operate. The old machine currently in use is fully depreciated and could be sold now for a salvage value of $29,000. The new machine would have a useful life of 10 years with no salvage value. Required: 1. What is the annual depreciation expense associated with the new bottling machine? 2. What is the annual incremental net operating income provided by the new bottling machine? 3. What is the amount of the initial investment associated with this project that should be used for calculating the simple rate of return? 4. What is the simple rate of return on the new bottling machine? (Round your answer to 1 decimal place i.e. 0.123 should be considered as 12.3%.)
Caspian Sea Drinks is considering the production of a diet drink. The expansion of the plant and the purchase of the equipment necessary to produce the diet drink will cost $27.00 million. The plant and equipment will be depreciated over 10 years to a book value of $2.00 million, and sold for that amount in year 10. Net working capital will increase by $1.43 million at the beginning of the project and will be recovered at the end. The new diet drink will produce revenues of $9.30 million per year and cost $2.46 million per year over the 10-year life of the project. Marketing estimates 13.00% of the buyers of the diet drink will be people who will switch from the regular drink. The marginal tax rate is 33.00%. The WACC is 12.00%. Find the IRR (internal rate of return).

Two techniques can be used to produce expansion anchors. Technique A costs $90,000 initially and will have a $12,000 salvage value after 3 years. The operating cost with this method will be $33,000 in year 1, increasing by $2600 each year. Technique B will have a first cost of $113,000, an operating cost of $7000 in year 1, increasing by $7000 each year,and a $43,000 salvage value after its 3-year life. At an interest rate of 13% per year, which technique should be used on the basis of a present worth analysis? Notice that there are no revenues. Please work out and do not use excel, however if you use excel please show how to input everything needed down to the formula, thank you!
A new solid waste treatment plant is to be constructed in Washington County. The initial installation will cost $30 million (M). After 10 years, minor repair and renovation (R&R) will occur at a cost of $14M will be required; after 20 years, a major R&R costing $18M will be required. The investment pattern will repeat every 20 years. Each year during the 20-year period, operating and maintenance (O&M) costs will occur. The first year, O&M costs will total $3M. Thereafter, O&M costs will increase at a compound rate of 6% per year. Based on a 6% MARR, what is the capitalized cost for the solid waste treatment plant? Click here to access the TVM Factor Table calculator. Carry all interim calculations to 5 decimal places and then round your final answer to a whole number. The tolerance is ±25,000.
Miami Machine Shops, Ltd. is consideringpurchasing a vertical drill machine. The machinewill cost $62,000 and will have an eight-year servicelife. The selling price of the machine at the end ofeight years is expected to be $5,000 in today’s dollars. The machine will generate annual revenues of$22,000 (today’s dollars), but the company expectsto have an annual expense (excluding depreciation)of $9,500 (today’s dollars). The asset is classified asa seven-year MACRS property. The project requiresa working-capital investment of $10,000 at year 0.The marginal income tax rate for the firm is averaging 35%. The firm’s market interest rate is 18%.(a) Determine the internal rate of return of thisinvestment.(b) Assume that the firm expects a general inflationrate of 5%, but that it also expects an 8% annualincrease in revenue and working capital and a6% annual increase in expense caused by inflation. Compute the real (inflation-free) internalrate of return. Is this project acceptable?
