Assume that a company purchased a new machine for $26,000 that has no salvage value. The machine is expected to save the company $6,000 a year in cash operating costs for seven years. The company also expects the machine to provide annual intangible benefits that are difficult to quantify. Assuming the company’s hurdle rate is 24%, the minimum value of the intangible benefits that would be required to make this investment acceptable is closest to:

Freida Company is considering an asset replacement project of replacing a control device. This old control device has been fully depreciated but can be sold for $5,000. The new control device, which is more automated, will cost $42,000. The new device’s installation and shipping costs will total $16,000. The new device will be depreciated on a straight-line basis over its 2-year economic life to an estimated salvage value of $0. The actual salvage value of this device at the end of 2-year period (That is, the market value of the device at the end of 2-year period) is estimated to be $4,000. If the replacement project is accepted, Freida will require an initial working capital investment of $2,200 (that is, adding $2,200 initially to its net working capital). During the 1st year of operations, Freida expects its annual revenue to increase from $72,800 to $90,000.
