Modern Artifacts can produce keepsakes that will be sold for $100 each. Nondepreciation fixed costs are $1,300 per year, and variable costs are $70 per unit. The initial investment of $4,000 will be depreciated straight-line over its useful life of 5 years to a final value of zero, and the discount rate is 12%.

You must evaluate a proposal to buy a new milling machine. The purchase price of the milling machine, including shipping and installation costs, is $162,000, and the equipment will be fully depreciated at the time of purchase. The machine would be sold after 3 years for $111,000. The machine would require a $9,000 increase in net operating working capital (increased Inventory less increased accounts payable). There would be no effect on revenues, but pretax labor costs would decline by $42,000 per year. The marginal tax rate is 25%, and the WACC is 11%. Also, the firm spent $4,500 last year investigating the feasibility of using the machine. a. How should the $4,500 spent last year be handled? 1. Last year's expenditure should be treated as a terminal cash flow and dealt with at the end of the project's life. Hence, it should not be included in the initial investment outlay. II. Last year's expenditure is considered an opportunity cost and does not represent an incremental cash flow.…
A new electronic process monitor costs $990,000. This cost could be depreciated at 30 percent per year (Class 10). The monitor would actually be worthless in five years. The new monitor would save $460,000 per year before taxes and operating costs. If we require a 15 percent return, what is the NPV of the purchase? Assume a tax rate of 40 percent. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round the final answer to 2 decimal places.) NPV
A firm is considering purchasing equipment that will reduce annual costs by P 40,000. The equipment costs P 300,000 and has a salvage value of P 50,000 and a life of 7 yrs. The annual maintenance cost is P 6,000. While not in use by the firm, the equipment can be rented to others to generate an income of P 10,000 per year. If money can be invested for an 8% return, is the firm justified in buying the equipment? Use annual cost method.

Use the following base case information to evaluate the project: PT Kolam Makara has a project costs $900,000, has a five-year life, and has a salvage value of $130,000. Depreciation is straight-line to zero. The required return is 14% and tax rate is 34%. Sales are projected at 2350 units per year. Price per unit is $400. Variable cost per unit is $200 and fixed costs are $150,000 per year. It is known that the depreciation expense is $180,000 per year. The engineering department estimates you will need an initial net working capital investment of $50,000. What is the sensitivity of OCF to changes in the variable cost figure at base case?
