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.

You are evaluating the proposed acquisition of a new machine costing $50,000, and it falls into the MACRS 3-year class. Purchase of the machine would require an increase of net operating working capital of $2,000, which will be recovered when the machine is sold. The machine would increase the firm's revenues by $27,000 per year and its operating costs by $16,000 per year. The machine is expected to be used only for 3 years and then be sold for $25,000. The firm's marginal tax rate is 27 percent, and the project's cost of capital is 14 percent. What is the non-operating terminal cash flows at year 3? MACRS 3-year schedule is as follows: 33%, 45%, 15%, and 7% for years 1 to 4, respectively. Question 13 options: $20,145 $20,455 $20,725 $20,975 $21,195 $21,505

The Campbell Company is evaluating the proposed acquisition of a new milling machine. The machine’s base price is $108,000, and it would cost another $12, 500 to modify it for special use by your firm. The machine will be sold after three years for $65,000. The applicable depreciation rates are 33 percent, 45 percent, 15 percent, and 7 percent. The machine would require an increase in net operating working capital (inventory) of $5,500. The machine would have no effect on revenues, but is expected to save the firm $44,000 per year in before tax operating costs, mainly labor. Campbell’s marginal tax rate is 35 percent.

Foster Incorporated is trying to decide whether to lease or purchase a piece of equipment needed for the next 10 years. The equipment would cost $53,000 to purchase, and maintenance costs would be $5,200 per year. After 10 years, Foster estimates it could sell the equipment for $25,000. If Foster leases the equipment, it would pay $15,000 each year, which would include all maintenance costs. If Foster's cost of capital is 12%, Foster should: (Future Value of $1, Present Value of $1, Future Value Annuity of $1, Present Value Annuity of $1) Note: Use the appropriate factors from the PV tables. Multiple Choice buy the equipment, as the net present value of the cost is about $53,000 less. lease the equipment, as the net present value of the cost is about $10,400 less. buy the equipment, as the net present value of the cost is about $10,400 less. О lease the equipment, as the net present value of the cost is about $6,700 less.
The Libby & Lacy Company is considering a new construction project for the new manufacturing plant and ask you to calculate a Net Present Value analysis.
