Electronic Games is moving very quickly to introduce a new interrelated set of video games. The initial investment for equipment to produce the necessary electronic components is $9 million. The salvage value after 6 years is $700,000. Anticipated net production savings are $6 million the first year, decreasing by $1 million each year for 6 years, with all dollar amounts expressed in actual dollars. Depreciation follows MACRS 5-year property, taxes are 40%, the actual after-tax MARR is 22.72%, and inflation is 4%.

You are evaluating two different silicon wafer milling machines. The Techron | costs $264,000, has a 3-year life, and has pretax operating costs of $71,000 per year. The Techron Il costs $460,000, has a 5-year life, and has pretax operating costs of $44,000 per year. For both milling machines, use straight-line depreciation to zero over the project's life and assume a salvage value of $48,000. If your tax rate is 22 percent and your discount rate is 12 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.) > Answer is complete but not entirely correct. Techron I $ -134,840.83 Techron II $ -107,570.18
B. The installation cost of a machine is $10000 with estimated life of 10 years and selvage value of $2000 at the end of the 10th year. What will be the annual depreciation cost in the fourth year (using straight line method)?
< A crane rental company has acquired a new heavy-duty crane for $210,000. The company calculates depreciation on this equipment on the basis of number of rentals per year, and the salvage value of the crane at the end of its 9-year life is $20,000 If the crane is rented an average of 101 days per year, what is the depreciation rate per rental? The depreciation is $ per day of rent. (Round to the nearest dollar.) E
Engineering Economy, Chapter 16: Depreciation Methods Assume that your Harley has a first cost of $25,000 and an estimated $4000 Salvage value after 12 years. Calculate it's double declining balance (DDB) depreciation and book values for 1. Year 1 only 2. Year 4 only 3. Calculate the salvage value at the end of 12 years for the DDB model
31. The purchase of a motor for P6000 and a generator for P4000 will allow the company to produce its own energy. The configuration can be assembled for P500. The service will operate for 1600 hours per year for 10 years. The maintenance cost is P300 per year, and cost to operate is PO.85 per hour for fuel and related cost. Using straight line depreciation, what is the annual cost for the operation? There is a P400 salvage value for the system at the end of 10 year. a. P2,710 c. P2,630 b. P2,480 d. P2,670
A machine having a first cost of P60,000.00 will be retired at the end of 8 years. Depreciation cost is computed using a constant percentage of the declining book value. What is the total cost of depreciation, in pesos, up to the time the machine is retired if annual rate of depreciation is 28.72%?
