ABC company is considering replacing their old manual loading machine with an automatic loading machine. The manual machine cost $300,000 three years ago, and is being depreciated over 10 years straight line depreciation, with no salvage value. If ABC replaces the manual machine, the new automatic machine will cost $400,000 and have a useful life of 10 years. This will also be depreciated on a straight line basis to zero. As a result of this new machine, there will be pretax savings of $130,000 in labour costs and $25,000 in other cash expenses annually. If the automatic machine is purchased, the old machine will immediately be sold at a price of $280,000. The company has already spent $15,000 researching the costs associated with this decision. The company's tax rate is 40% and no inflation is expected. The company's cost of capital is 7%. Calculate the net present value of this decision using a financial calulator
The Telephone Company of America purchased a numerically controlled production machine 5 years ago for $300,000. The machine currently has a trade-in value of $70,000. If the machine is continued in use, another machine, X, must be purchased to supplement the old machine. Machine X costs $200,000, has annual operating and maintenance costs of $40,000, and will have a salvage value of $30,000 in 10 years. If the old machine is retained, it will have annual operating and maintenance costs of $55,000 and will have a salvage value of $15,000 in 10 years. As an alternative to retaining the old machine, it can be replaced with Machine Y. Machine Y costs $400,000, has anticipated annual operating and maintenance costs of $70,000, and has a salvage value of $140,000 in 10 years. Using a MARR of 15%, a cash flow approach, and a present worth comparison, determine the preferred economic alternative.

International Soup Company is considering replacing a canning machine. The old machine is being depreciated by the straight-line method over a 10-year recovery period from a depreciable cost basis of $120,000. The old machine has 5 years of remaining usable life, at which time its salvage value is expected to be zero, and it can be sold now for $40,000. This machine has a current book value of $60,000. The purchase price of the new machine is $250,000. Employees were sent to a training course last year on how to use the new machine; this training cost $5,000.

Georgia Energy is contemplating replacing an oil-powered generator with a solar powered generator. The old generator was purchased twenty-two years ago and is being depreciated over its 25-year life to a zero salvage value using straight-line depreciation. The old generator has a book value of $4.5 million but could be sold today for $3.0 million. The solar powered generator would cost $10 million and be depreciated over a 4-year life using MACRS (.3333,.4445,.1481,.0741). Due to the rapidly changing technology, it is anticipated that the new generator will be sold after three years for $1.0 million. The new generator is expected to save Georgia Energy $10 million a year during its 3-year life. Georgia Energy will need to increase working capital by $1.5 million. The company’s WACC is 10% and the tax rate is 35%. What is the project’s net present value (NPV)? Should the oil-powered generator be replaced? View keyboard shortcuts
