Your Question:
Assume everything is given in n=0, CONSTANT dollars unless otherwise stated:
MTA Textile INC. is considering to invest on a computer-controlled fabric cutting
machine. The machine's purchasing price is $150,000. The part of the initial cost of
this investment will be paid using a $50,000 loan. The loan will be repaid in yearly
installment for four years at 8%. This project requires a working capital investment of
$10,000 at year 0. This investment on working capital will be fully recovered after
the project is terminated.
The salvage value of this investment at the end of fourth years is expected to be
$70,000. This machine will generate annual revenues of $60,000, but have annual
operating costs of $3,000. The equipment has a 30% declining balance rate for CCA
calculations. The marginal income tax rate for the firm is given as 20%. A general
inflation rate is expected to be 7%. However, the firm also expects 8% annual
increase in revenue and working capital and a 6% annual increase in operating costs
caused by inflation. The firm's market interest rate is 15%
Using the information above, determine the disposable tax effect (Ignore the
negative or positive sign of the answers).
a) Between $10,200 and $10,600
b) Between $15,200 and $15,600
c) Between $12,200 and $12,600
O d) None of the answers are correct
e) Between $11,200 and $11,600
f) Between $9,400 and $9,800
