Alternative A has an initial cost of $-130,000, an annual cash-flow before taxes of $60,000, and a depreciable life of 3 years. Alternative B has an initial cost of $-95,000, an annual cash-flow before taxes of $20,000, and a depreciable life of 5 years. The company considering the alternatives is in the 35% tax bracket and assumes straight line depreciation with an after-tax minimum acceptable rate of return (MARR) of 8% per year. A salvage value of zero is used when depreciation is calculated; however, system B can be sold after 5 years for an estimated 6% of its first cost. System A has no anticipated salvage value. Determine which is more economical using an annual worth (AW) analysis. The annual worth analysis for system A is determined to be $3655.47 The annual worth analysis for system B is determined to be $ System A is selected.

Although the company does not have an option to delay construction, it does have the option to abandon the project 1 year from now if the tax is imposed. If it abandons the project, it will sell the complete property 1 year from now at an expected price of $7 million after taxes. Once the project is abandoned, the company will no longer receive any cash flows. Assuming that all cash flows are discounted at 12%, will the existence of this abandonment option affect the company’s decision to proceed with the project today? Explain.

Comey Products has decided to acquire some new equipment having a $240,000 purchase price. The equipment will last 4 years and is in the MACRS 3-year class. (The depreciation rates for Year 1 through Year 4 are equal to 0.3333, 0.4445, 0.1481, and 0.0741.) The firm can borrow at a 5% rate and pays a 25% federal-plus-state tax rate. Comey is considering leasing the property but wishes to know the cost of borrowing that it should use when comparing purchasing to leasing and has hired you to answer this question. What is the correct answer to Comey's question? (Hint: Use the shortcut method to find the after-tax cost of the loan payments.) Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to the nearest dollar.
