During its current tax year (year one), a pharmaceutical company purchased a mixing tank that had a fair market price of $125,000. It replaced an older, smaller mixing tank that had a BV of $20,000. Because a special promotion was underway, the old tank was used as a trade-in for the new one, and the cash price (including delivery and installation) was set at $102,000. The MACRS class life for the new mixing tank is 9.5 years. If 200% DB depreciation had been applied to this problem, what would be the accumulative depreciation through the end of year four Select one: O a. $21,984 O b. $47,601.09 OC. $21,081.6 O d. $23,424

You have been asked by the president of your company to evaluate the proposed acquisition of a new special-purpose truck for $60,000. The truck falls into the MACRS 3-year class, is not eligible for either bonus depreciation or Section 179 expensing, and it will be sold after three years for $20,900. Use of the truck will require an increase in NWC (spare parts inventory) of $2,900. The truck will have no effect on revenues, but it is expected to save the firm $20,300 per year in before-tax operating costs, mainly labor. The firm's marginal tax rate is 21 percent. What will the cash flows for this project be? (Negative amounts should be indicated by a minus sign. Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)

A hospital wants to purchase a diagnostic system for $500,000 and depreciate it on a straight-line basis over a five year period for tax purposes. The investment would result in revenues of $225,000 per year, before taxes in Year 1, and increase at 3% for five years. At the end of five years, it is estimated that the system can be sold for $75,000. The gain on the sale would be taxable at the 40% corporate rate. The system also would require hiring two FTE techs to operate it, payable at a rate of $41,700 each per year and increase at a rate of 5% per year. Supply costs are expected to be $ 25,000 per year based on expected utilization and these costs are expected to increase at a rate of 4.2%. Miscellaneous overhead and other associated expenses are expected to be $10,000 per year and increase at a rate of 2% per year. Questions: Is the investment in the machine attractive in economic terms, given the projected cash flows? Please assume that the cash flows occur at the end of each…
On January 2, 2021, Twilight Hospital purchased a $92,000 special radiology scanner from Blossom Inc. The scanner had a useful life of 4 years and was estimated to have no disposal value at the end of its useful life. The straight-line method of depreciation is used on this scanner. Annual operating costs with this scanner are $104,000. Approximately one year later, the hospital is approached by Dyno Technology salesperson, Jacob Cullen, who indicated that purchasing the scanner in 2021 from Blossom Inc. was a mistake. He points out that Dyno has a scanner that will save Twilight Hospital $24,000 a year in operating expenses over its 3-year useful life. Jacob notes that the new scanner will cost $109,000 and has the same capabilities as the scanner purchased last year. The hospital agrees that both scanners are of equal quality. The new scanner will have no disposal value. Jacob agrees to buy the old scanner from Twilight Hospital for $43,000. (a) If Twilight Hospital sells its old…

Builtrite purchased its current machine 3 years ago at a cost of $30,000 with an additional $5,000 in shipping and installation costs and $3,000 in training unique to this new machine. The machine is being depreciated down to zero during its five-year life. Today, Builtrite is thinking of selling this machine for $20,000. If Builtrite is in the 34% tax bracket, what are the tax implications for the sale? O $340 tax owed O $340 tax benefit O $2040 tax owed O 52040 tax benefit
