Problem 3 A piping contractor is considering the purchase of a number of pipe laying machines for a project that will last for 6 years. Each machine will cost $ 50,000.00 and have no salvage value at the end of the project. In determining whether to make this purchase, straight line deprecation can be used and an annual income tax on profits of of 34%, and an after-tax MARR is 8%. What is the minimum annual net benefit before taxes that must be generated by the each machine in order to justify its purchase? Answer:

A new machine costs $798,410 and falls in a 26.50% CCA class. The machine will have zero value after 5 years of use but will save $370,940 annually in operating costs before taxes in those five years. Assume a tax rate of 32.73%. Using a required return of 13.67%, what is the present value of the CCA tax shield? Question 18 options: $157,975 $162,026 $166,076 $170,127 $174,178
A project requires initial asset investment of $1 million. The asset will last for 8 years, and will be depreciated for tax purposes at the CCA rate of 30%. The required return on this project is 16%, and the marginal corporate tax rate is 36%. Assuming that the asset will have a salvage value of $50,000 at the end of Year 8. what is the present value of the CCA tax shields from this project?

ces We are evaluating a project that costs $2,160,000, has a 8-year life, and has no salvage value. Assume that depreciation is straight-line to zero over the life of the project. Sales are projected at 90,900 units per year. Price per unit is $38.91, variable cost per unit is $24.00, and fixed costs are $863,000 per year. The tax rate is 21 percent and we require a return of 11 percent on this project. Suppose the projections given for price, quantity, variable costs, and fixed costs are all accurate to within ±10 percent. Calculate the best-case and worst-case NPV figures. Note: A negative answer should be indicated by a minus sign. Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answers to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16. Best-case NPV Worst-case NPV
Macrohard Software is considering a new project whose data are shown below.

Project Beta is a 7-year project which requires an initial outlay of $6,000. This outlay will be depreciated using straight-line depreciation over the life of the project. It will generate incremental revenue of $2400 per year and incremental costs (excluding depreciation) of $300. The tax rate is 35%. What is the project's annual after-tax incremental earnings?
