Kelly’s Corner Bakery purchased a lot in Oil City 6 years ago at a cost of $302,000. Today, that lot has a book value of zero and market value of $340,000. At the time of the purchase, the company spent $15,000 to level the lot and another $20,000 to install storm drains. The company now wants to build a new facility on that site. The building cost is estimated at $1.51 million, and will be depreciated using the straight-line method to a $400,000 book value over the 6-year life of the project. The company is evaluates this new facility will increase annual sales by $1.2 million and annual cash costs by $0.5 million. Based on past information, the company believes that it can sell the facility for $800,000 when they are done with it in 6 years. The applicable tax rate is 32 percent. What is the net present value of the project if the required rate of return is 10 percent?

Actual salvage value today is estimated to be $2 million. SDE’s average tax rate is 30 percent, and its marginal tax rate is 40 percent. The weighted cost of capital for SDE is 15 percent. A new robotic saw will cost $15 million. It will be depreciated under MACRS rules for a 7-‐year class asset.If SDE acquires the new saw, itestimates that its net working capital investment will decline, due to the reduced need to carry inventories of spare parts for this more reliable machine. Net working capital should decline from a current level of $1 million to a new level of $500,000 as a result of this purchase. a.Calculate the net investment required to acquire the new saw. b. The new saw is expected to reduce operating costs (exclusive of depreciation) for SDE by $800,000 per year over the asset’s…
