Assume that a firm expects to be able to liquidate the new machine, which cost $400,000, at the end of its 5- year usable life to net $44,000 after paying removal and cleanup costs. Had it not been replaced by the new machine, the old machine, which initially cost $240,000 and was used for 3 years before being replaced, would have been liquidated at the end of the 5 years (i.e., the same time the new machine is liquidated) to net $ 14,000. The firm expects to recover its $17,000 net working capital investment upon termination of the project. The firm pays taxes at a rate of 40%. The firm depreciated both machines using a 5-yr MACR schedule as follows: 20%, 32%, 19%, 12%, 12%, 5%. Calculating the terminal cash flow for this machine.

LLED has purchased a new chip making machine for $1,500,000 with a salvage value of $100,000in 10 years. The LLED company is trying to determine the best method of depreciation. Create atable and calculate the deprecation amount for each year using straight line, double decliningbalance, and MACRS (10 yr property class). For SL and DDB we will not depreciate below thesalvage value. Using a MARR of 10% calculate the present worth of the depreciation deductions.Which is the preferred method of depreciation for LLED?
Crane Inc. wants to purchase a new machine for $40,700, excluding $1,500 of installation costs. The old machine was purchased 5 years ago and had an expected economic life of 10 years with no salvage value. The old machine has a book value of $2,300, and Crane Inc. expects to sell it for that amount. The new machine will decrease operating costs by $9,700 each year of its economic life. The straight-line depreciation method will be used for the new machine for a 6-year period with no salvage value. Click here to view the factor table. (a) Determine the cash payback period.

The equipment has a delivered cost of $57,000. An additional $3,000 is required to install the new equipment. The new control device falls into the 7-year class for depreciation and will be depreciated using MACRS as per the Tax Reform Act of 1986 and a further modification in 2005. At the end of 8 years, the estimated Salvage Value of the new equipment is $20,000.The existing control device has been in use for approximately 10 years, and it has been fully depreciated (that is, its book value is zero for the old device). However, its current market value for the old device is estimated to be $5,000. The applicable tax rate is 34%. The new control device requires lower maintenance costs and frees personnel who would otherwise monitor the system. In addition, it reduces product wastage. In total, it is estimated that during its eight-year life, the yearly savings will amount to $20,000 if the new control device is used. Yearly sales revenue is unchanged. The illustrative firm’s cost of…

The Erickson Toy Corporation currently uses an injection moulding machine that was purchased 2 years ago. This machine is being depreciated on a straight-line basis toward a $500 salvage value, and it has 6 years of remaining life. Its current book value is $2,600, and it can be sold for $3,000 at this time. Assume, for ease of calculation, that the annual depreciation expense is $350 per year. The firm is offered a replacement machine which has a cost of $8,000 an estimated useful life of 6 years, and an estimated salvage value of $800. This machine falls into the MACRS 5-year class (20%, 32%, 19%, 12%, 12%, 5%). The replacement machine would permit an output expansion, so sales would rise by $1,000 per year; even so, the new machine much greater efficiency would still cause operating expenses to decline by $1,500 per year. The machine would require that inventories be increased by $2,000 but accounts payable would simultaneously increase by $500. The firm’s marginal…
