Chadron Sports is considering adding a miniature golf course to its facility. The course would cost $138,000, would be depreciated on a straight-line basis over its five-year life, and would have a zero salvage value. The estimated income from the golfing fees would be $72,000 a year with $24,000 of that amount being variable cost. The fixed cost would be $11,600. In addition, the firm anticipates an additional $14,000 in revenue from its existing facilities if the golf course is added. The project will require $7,000 of net working capital, which is recoverable at the end of the project. What is the net present value of this project at a discount rate of 12 percent and a tax rate of 34 percent? O $14,438.78 $12,708.48 O $11,757.49 O $10,631.16 O $14,900.41
Ivanhoe Company is considering buying a new farm that it plans to operate for 10 years. The farm will require an initial investment of $11.85 million. This investment will consist of $2.15 million for land and $9.70 million for trucks and other equipment. The land, all trucks, and all other equipment are expected to be sold at the end of 10 years for a price of $5.25 million, which is $2.00 million above book value. The farm is expected to produce revenue of $2.10 million each year, and annual cash flow from operations equals $1.90 million. The marginal tax rate is 25 percent, and the appropriate discount rate is 10 percent. Calculate the NPV of this investment? (Do not round factor values. Round final answer to 2 decimal places, e.g. 15.25.)
You must evaluate the purchase of a proposed spectrometer for the R&D department. The purchase price of the spectrometer including modifications is $290,000, and the equipment will be fully depreciated at the time of purchase. The equipment would be sold after 3 years for $48,000. The equipment would require an $8,000 increase in net operating working capital (spare parts inventory). The project would have no effect on revenues, but it should save the firm $33,000 per year in before-tax labor costs. The firm's marginal federal-plus-state tax rate is 25%.

Rader Railway is determining whether to purchase a new rail setter, which has a base price of $394,000 and would cost another $58,000 to install. The setter will be depreciated according to the MACRS 3-year class of assets, and it would be sold after three years for $196,000. Using the setter requires a $26,000 increase in net working capital. Although it would have no effect on revenues, the setter should save the firm $171,000 per year in before-tax operating costs (excluding depreciation). Rader's marginal tax rate is 40 percent, and its required rate of return is 13 percent. Should the setter be purchased? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to the nearest cent. Use a minus sign to enter a negative value, if any. The setter_____________ be purchased because the net present value, that is $__________ , is ______ zero.

RealTurf is considering purchasing an automatic sprinkler system for its sod farm by borrowing the entire $30,000 purchase price. The loan would be repaid with four equal annual payments at an interest rate of 12%/year. It is anticipated that the sprinkler system would be used for 9 years and then sold for a salvage value of $2,000. Annual operating and maintenance expenses for the system over the 9-year life are estimated to be $9,000 per year. If the new system is purchased, cost savings of $15,000 per year will be realized over the present manual watering system. RealTurf uses a MARR of 15%/year for economic decision making. Based on a present worth analysis, is the purchase of the new sprinkler system economically attractive?
