The Darlington Equipment Company purchased a machine 5 years ago at a cost of $85,000. The machine had an expected life of 10 years at the time of purchase, and it is being depreciated by the straight-line method by $8,500 per year. If the machine is not replaced, it can be sold for $5,000 at the end of its useful life. A new machine can be purchased for $170,000, including installation costs. During its 5-year life, it will reduce cash operating expenses by $45,000 per year. Sales are not expected to change. At the end of its useful life, the machine is estimated to be worthless. The new machine is eligible for 100% bonus depreciation at the time of purchase. The old machine can be sold today for $50,000. The firm's tax rate is 25%. The appropriate WACC is 9%. If the new machine is purchased, what is the amount of the initial cash flow at Year 0 after bonus depreciation is considered? Cash outflow should be indicated by a minus sign.

Maxwell Manufacturing is contemplating the purchase of a new machine to replace a machine that has been in use for seven years. The old machine has a net book value (NBV) of $51,000 and still has five years of useful life remaining. The old machine has a current market value of $5,100, but is expected to have no market value after five years. The variable operating costs and depreciation expenses (straight-line basis) are $120,000 per year. The new machine will cost $86,000, has an estimated useful life of five years with zero disposal value after five years, and an annual operating expense of $101,000 (including straight-line depreciation). Considering the five years in total and ignoring the time value of money and income taxes, what is the difference in total relevant costs for the two decision alternatives (keep vs. replace)?

Sunland Inc. wants to replace its current equipment with new high-tech equipment. The existing equipment was purchased 5 years ago at a cost of $122,000. 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.
