A hospital wants to purchase a diagnostic system for $500,000 and depreciate it on a straight-line basis over a five year period for tax purposes. The investment would result in revenues of $225,000 per year, before taxes in Year 1, and increase at 3% for five years. At the end of five years, it is estimated that the system can be sold for $75,000. The gain on the sale would be taxable at the 40% corporate rate. The system also would require hiring two FTE techs to operate it, payable at a rate of $41,700 each per year and increase at a rate of 5% per year. Supply costs are expected to be $ 25,000 per year based on expected utilization and these costs are expected to increase at a rate of 4.2%. Miscellaneous overhead and other associated expenses are expected to be $10,000 per year and increase at a rate of 2% per year. Questions: Is the investment in the machine attractive in economic terms, given the projected cash flows? Please assume that the cash flows occur at the end of each…
A highly specialized piece of equipment has a first cost of $50,000. If this equipment is purchased, it will be used to produce income (through rental) of $20,000 per year for only four years. At the end of year four, the equipment will be sold for a negligible amount. Estimated annual expenses for upkeep are $3,000 during each of the four years. The MACRS (GDS) recovery period for the equipment is seven years, and the firm’s effective income tax rate is 40%. Solve, (a) If the after-tax MARR is 7% per year, should the equipment be purchased? (b) Rework the problem, assuming that the equipment is placed on standby status such that depreciation is taken over the full MACRS recovery period.
