- A division of Virginia City Highlands Manufacturing is considering purchasing for $1,500,000 a machine that automates the process of inserting electronic components onto computer motherboards. The annual cost of operating the machine will be $50,000, but it will save the company $370,000 in labor costs each year. The machine will have a useful life of 10 years, and its salvage value in 10 years is estimated to be $300,000. Straight-line depreciation will be used in calculating taxes for this project, and the marginal corporate tax rate is 32 percent. If the appropriate discount rate is 12 percent, what is the NPV of this project?Riverview Company is evaluating the proposed acquisition of a new production machine. The machine's base price is $200,000, and installation costs would amount to $28,000. Also, $10,000 in net working capital would be required at installation. The machine will be depreciated for 3 years using simplified straight line depreciation. The machine would save the firm $110,000 per year in operating costs. The firm is planning to keep the machine in place for 5 years. At the end of the fifth year, the machine will be sold for $20,000. Riverview has a cost of capital of 12% and a marginal tax rate of 34%.What is the NPV of the project?The management of Jasper Equipment Company is planning to purchase a new milling machine that will cost $160,000 installed. The old milling machine has been fully depreciated but can be sold for $15,000. The new machine will be depreciated on a straight-line basis over its 10-year economic life to an estimated salvage value of $10,000. If this milling machine will save Jasper $20,000 a year in production expenses, what are the annual net cash flows associated with the purchase of this machine? Assume a marginal tax rate of 40 percent. a. $15,000 b. $27,000 c. $21,000 d. $18,000
- Riverview Company is evaluating the proposed acquisition of a new production machine. The machine's base price is $200,000, and installation costs would amount to $28,000. Also, $10,000 in net working capital would be required at installation. The machine will be depreciated for 3 years using simplified straight line depreciation. The machine would save the firm $110,000 per year in operating costs. The firm is planning to keep the machine in place for 2 years. At the end of the second year, the machine will be sold for $50,000. Riverview has a cost of capital of 12% and a marginal tax rate of 34%.What is the NPV of the project?The management of Ballard MicroBrew is considering the purchase of an automated bottling machine for $66,000. The machine would replace an old piece of equipment that costs $17,000 per year to operate. The new machine would cost $8,000 per year to operate. The old machine currently in use is fully depreciated and could be sold now for a salvage value of $29,000. The new machine would have a useful life of 10 years with no salvage value. Required: 1. What is the annual depreciation expense associated with the new bottling machine? 2. What is the annual incremental net operating income provided by the new bottling machine? 3. What is the amount of the initial investment associated with this project that should be used for calculating the simple rate of return? 4. What is the simple rate of return on the new bottling machine? (Round your answer to 1 decimal place i.e. 0.123 should be considered as 12.3%.)Ralph’s Bow Works (RBW) is planning to add a new line of bow ties that will require the acquisition of a new knitting and tying machine. The machine will cost $1.3 million. It is classified as a 7-year MACRS asset and will be depreciated as such. Interest costs associated with financing the equipment purchase are estimated to be $50,000 per year. The expected salvage value of the machine at the end of 10 years is $80,000. The decision to add the new line of bow ties will require additional net working capital of $55,000 immediately, $30,000 at the end of year 1, and $10,000 at the end of year 2. RBW expects to sell $370,000 worth of the bow ties during each of the 10 years of product life. RBW expects the sales of its other ties to decline by $23,000 (in year 1) as a result of adding this new line of ties. The lost sales level will remain constant at $23,000 over the 10-year life of the proposed project. The cost of producing and selling the ties is estimated to be $70,000 per year.…
- We assume that the company you selected is considering a new project. The project has 8 years’ life. This project requires initial investment of $235 million to purchase the building, and purchase equipment, and $15 million for shipping & installation fee. The fixed assets (Total of 235+15= $250 M) fall in the 7-year MACRS class. The salvage value of fixed assets is $38 million. The number of units of the new product expected to be sold in the first year is 900,000 and expected to grow at annual growth rate of 9%. The sales price is $265 per unit and the variable cost is $174 per unit in the first year, but they should be adjusted accordingly based on the estimated annualized inflation rate of 2.8%. Therequired net operating working capital (NOWC) for each year is 15% of sales for that year. The company is in the 21% tax bracket. The company’s optimal capital structure is 65% equity and 35 debt financing. Assume a WACC of 7 % based on target capital structure of this firm. (This…The Excon Machine Tool Company is considering the addition of a computerized lathe to its equipment inventory. The initial cost of the equipment is $610,000, and the lathe is expected to have a useful life of five years and no salvage value. The cost savings and increased capacity attributable to the machine are estimated to generate increases in the firm's annual cash inflows (before considering depreciation) of $181,000. The machine will be depreciated using MACRS for tax purposes. The 5-year MACRS depreciation percentages as computed by the IRS are: Year 1 = 20.00%; Year 2 = 32.00%; Year 3 = 19.20%; Year 4 = 11.52%; Year 5 = 11.52%; Year 6 = 5.76%.

- Pique Corporation plans to purchase a new machine for $300,000. Management estimates that with the machine cash flows from sales will increase by $160,000 each year for the next 5 years. Expenses to generate the additional sales include direct materials, direct labor, and factory overhead (excluding depreciation) totaling $70,000 per year. The firm uses straight-line depreciation with no terminal disposal value for all depreciable assets. The new machine has an expected salvage value of zero at the end of the project. Pique's combined income tax rate is 20%. Management requires a minimum after-tax rate of return of 8% on all investments.a. Calculate the Net Present Value (NPV) for this project.Tesla management are trying to decide whether to keep an older piece of machinery or buy a replacement. Management was presented with the following information to assist in their decision: A machine purchased three years ago for $314,000 has a current book value using straight-line depreciation of $187,000; its operating expenses are $38,000 per year. A replacement machine would cost $237,000, have a useful life of ten years, and would require $9,000 per year in operating expenses. It has an expected salvage value of $74,000 after ten years. The current disposal value of the old machine is $83,000; if it is kept ten more years, its residual value would be $14,000. Required Calculate the total costs in keeping the old machine and purchase a new machine. Should the old machine be replaced? Keep Old Machine Total costs Should the old machine be replaced? Purchase New Machine I YesThe Baltic Company is considering the purchase of a new machine tool to replace an obsolete one. The machine being used for the operation has a current book value of $80,000, with an annual depreciation expense of $8,000. It has a resale value today of $40,000, is in good working order, and will last, physically, for at least 10 more years. The proposed machine will perform the operation so much more efficiently that Baltic engineers estimate that labor, material, and other direct costs of the operation will be reduced $60,000 a year if it is installed. The proposed machine costs $240,000 delivered and installed, and its economic life is estimated at 10 years, with zero salvage value. The company expects to earn 14 percent on its investment after taxes (14 percent is the firm's cost of capital). The tax rate is 22 percent, and the firm uses straight-line depreciation. Any gain or loss on the sale of the machine at retirement is subject to tax at 40 percent. Would it be better…
