A tax saving measure on financial statements After you have conducted a future worth comparison of alternatives, what factor do you multiply the FW values by in order to obtain the AW values of the alternatives? a.

You are evaluating two different silicon wafer milling machines. The Techron I costs $270,000, has a 3-year life, and has pretax operating costs of $73,000 per year. The Techron II costs $470,000, has a 5-year life, and has pretax operating costs of $46,000 per year. For both milling machines, use straight-line depreciation to zero over the project's life and assume a salvage value of $50,000. If your tax rate is 24 percent and your discount rate is 10 percent, compute the EAC for both machines. (A negative answer should be indicated by a minus sign. Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answers to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.) Techron I Techron II
A furniture company buys a forest to obtain wood for manufacturing furniture. The related costs to theforest are:Cost of buying the forest = $730,000,000Wood expected to be extracted = 400,000 tonCost of restoration of the forest = $120,000,000Residual/salvage value = $233,000,000Trees cut in year 1 = 107,000 tonsTrees cut in year 2 = 89,000 tonsCompute the depletion rate and depletion charge for the first 2 years.

Outdoor Sports is considering adding a putt putt golf course to its facility. The course would cost $167,000, would be depreciated on a straight-line basis over its 6-year life, and would have a zero salvage value. The sales would be $84,000 a year, with variable costs of $27,400 and fixed costs of $12,000. In addition, the firm anticipates an additional $15,300 in revenue from its existing facilities if the putt putt course is added. The project will require $2,600 of net working capital, which is recoverable at the end of the project. What is the net present value of this project at a discount rate of 12 percent and a tax rate of 40 percent?
Ima Good-Student enrolls in ENGR 3202. She had considered purchasing a new vehicle but decides that she can buy a good used vehicle and invest the difference in the stock market. Ima sells her current vehicle for $5000 and buys a low-mileage vehicle for $15000 in cash, no financing needed. She also realizes that she needs to account for maintenance and operation costs. Those costs are estimated to be $2000 per year and increase by $100 per year. She will keep the vehicle for years and sell it for an estimated $3000. If her MARR is 8%, what is the present value of this cash flow? O a. $-23000 O b. $-23400 O c. $-18000 O d. -$18400
A specialty concrete mixer used in construction was purchased for $300,000 7 years ago. Its annual O&M costs are $105,000. At the end of the 8-year planning horizon, the mixer will have a salvage value of $5,000. If the mixer is replaced, a new mixer will require an initial investment of $375,000 and at the end of the 8-year planning horizon, the new mixer will have a salvage value of $45,000. Its annual O&M cost will be only $40,000 due to newer technology. Use an EUAC measure and a MARR of 15% to see if the concrete mixer should be replaced if the old mixer is sold for its market value of $65,000. Solve, a. Use the cash flow approach (insider’s viewpoint approach). b. Use the opportunity cost approach (outsider’s view point approach).
