(Equivalent annual annuity) Rib & Wings-R-Us is considering the purchase of a new smoker oven for cooking barbecue, ribs, and wings. It is looking at two different ovens. The first is a relatively standard smoker and would cost $52,000, last for 7 years, and produce annual free cash flows of $16,000 per year. The alternative is the deluxe, award- winning Smoke-alator, which costs $78,000 and, because of its patented humidity control, produces the "moistest, tastiest barbecue in the world." The Smoke-alator would last for 15 years and produce free cash flows of $22,000 per year. Assuming a required rate of return of 10 percent on both projects, compute their equivalent annual annuities (EAAs).

Fabco, Inc., is considering purchasing flow valves that will reduce annual operating costs by $10,000 per year for the next 12 years. Fabco’s MARR is 7%/year. Using a present worth approach, determine the maximum amount Fabco should be willing to pay for the valves.
Klein Dermatology is contemplating purchasing new laser therapy equipment. This new equipment would cost $300,000 to purchase and $20,000 for installation. Klein estimates that this new equipment would yield incremental margins of $98,000 annually due to new client services but would require incremental cash maintenance costs of $10,000 annually. Klein expects the life of this equipment to be 5 years and estimates a terminal disposal value of $20,000. Klein has a 25% income tax rate and depreciates assets on a straight-line basis (to terminal value) for tax purposes. The required rate of return on investments is 10%.

The Campbell Company is considering adding a robotic paint sprayer to its production line. The sprayer's base price is $970,000, and it would cost another $18,000 to install it. The machine falls into the MACRS 3-year class, and it would be sold after 3 years for $495,000. The MACRS rates for the first three years are 0.3333, 0.4445, and 0.1481. The machine would require an increase in net working capital (inventory) of $14,000. The sprayer would not change revenues, but it is expected to save the firm $366,000 per year in before-tax operating costs, mainly labor. Campbell's marginal tax rate is 25%.

Fantastic Footwear can invest in one of two different automated clicker cutters. The first, A, has a $150,000 first cost. A similar one with many extra features, B has a $579,000 first cost. A will save $50,000 per year over the cutter currently in use. B will save $160,000 per year. Each clicker cutter will last five years. If the MARR is 8 percent, which alternative is better? Use an IBB comparison should be chosen percent. For the increment from cutter A to cutter B, the IRR is percent. Therefore, For the increment from the do-nothing alternative to cutter A. the IRR is (Type integers or decimals rounded to one decimal place as needed.)

Beryl's Iced Tea currently rents a bottling machine for $55,000 per year, including all maintenance expenses. It is considering purchasing a machine instead, and is comparing two options: a. Purchase the machine it is currently renting for $160,000. This machine will require $23,000 per year in ongoing maintenance expenses. b. Purchase a new, more advanced machine for $250,000. This machine will require $15,000 per year in ongoing maintenance expenses and will lower bottling costs by $12,000 per year. Also, $39,000 will be spent upfront training the new operators of the machine. Suppose the appropriate discount rate is 8% per year and the machine is purchased today. Maintenance and bottling costs are paid at the end of each year, as is the rental of the machine. Assume also that the machines will be depreciated via the straight-line method over seven years and that they have a ten-year life with a negligible salvage value. The corporate tax rate is 20%. Should Beryl's Iced Tea continue…
